I have Time Machine running continuously while I'm working, both at the office and at home, backing up the smaller details of email, accounts, etc etc, as I touch them. My photo stuff is backed up after every shoot, after I import the exposures to Lightroom, and after every editing session. Every day or more frequently than that. It's all automated so I just turn on the archive drives and walk away while the backup app is doing its thing.
My backup system for the photo work nets one working drive of the current last-five-years worth of photos, and double backups of that (single backups of everything else) onto twinned archive drives. Once every month or two, I roll out one of the twin backup drives to another twin that I keep at my office too. It's very little time to do this stuff since everything is automated. I worked out the policy and mechanisms five or six years back, it's been running the same ever since although I've upgraded drives and computers since several times.
