Five great tips for editing portraits

Editing portraits to a professional standard has never been quicker and easier: with Luminar AI you can achieve stunning results in just a few mouse clicks, with no previous editing experience required. Not only does this completely remove the laborious nature of portrait editing, which can take years to perfect, but it also means that you can spend more time behind the camera shooting your favourite subjects. So here are five tips that will help you to get more out of portrait editing in Luminar AI, while making your shots look their best.

White balance

When you have a portrait image with a colour cast, click the Edit tab and correct white balance before applying a Template. Some Templates incorporate colours, so it’s easier to correct the cast first.

Face Light

Face Light lightens faces in images. This means that you can just lighten the faces in shots rather than the entire image; doing so requires nothing more than a single slider to control the brightness.
