LuminarAI will edit your photos for you

This article was translated from Dutch with the help of AI. Read the original.

Skylum, the maker of photo editing software Luminar, has announced that LuminarAI will be coming soon. LuminarAI uses artificial intelligence to edit your photos for you.

Skylum has not yet made it very clear how LuminarAI will work. The software has knowledge of thousands of (edited) photos and will suggest edits for your photos.

You can then decide whether or not you want to use the suggestion. You can also make adjustments to the proposals.

Suppose, for example, that you want to replace the sky in one of your photos. LuminarAI will search through your photos of skies for suitable skies for your photo and correct the colours where necessary. You will see the result and can then choose to keep it or try again.

Portrait photographers are also helped with automatic adjustments to the body, face, eyes and imperfections.

These are things that are already possible with Luminar. The big difference is that you have to think less about which adjustment you want to make: the programme suggests what would work, according to LuminarAI.

If it appeals to you, you can already buy LuminarAI at the 'early bird' price. You then pay 79 euros instead of 99 euros. This price applies to the first 30,000 customers.

Luminar AI probably will not be released until the end of this year.

I am curious to see how this will work in practice. At first, most photographers will want to do their own editing. If LuminarAI manages to learn your editing style and edit photos to your taste, it could still become quite a success.

Until then, you can of course already achieve great results with Luminar 4, which Skylum says will continue to be developed as normal.

If you need help editing your photos with Luminar 4, we have a practical Luminar 4 course at Photofacts Academy.
