I already had all my photos organised in folders long before I started using iPhoto. If you uncheck the "Copy Items to iPhoto Library" option in Preferences -> Advanced then iPhoto will happily work with originals that are stored/organised however you want them rather than copying them to the iPhoto library (it still puts modified versions and other data inside the iPhoto library, but your originals are not moved, copied or modified). I prefer it this way as it means I'm not tied to iPhoto.
