“Luminar is super easy to use, even if you are not a pro. AI tools are smart and actually useful. My favorite is how quickly I can enhance skies and portraits.”
“The AI tools are truly impressive. I love the portrait enhancement features that help improve skin tones and overall look in no time. The software also integrates well with my other editing tools, making it a versatile addition to my workflow.”
“I reworked last year's entire archive with Luminar Neo and now I'm not ashamed to post it on Instagram. I'm not a pro, but even a slight figure correction makes the photo look more harmonious.”
“Luminar Neo does what it should: helps the photographer reveal the idea of the shot. It doesn't interfere, doesn't weigh you down, doesn't scare you. That's the main thing”
“Luminar’s AI Sky Replacement and landscape enhancement tools have completely transformed my photos. I no longer need to spend hours adjusting lighting and sky details — it’s all done for me.”
“I’m a hobbyist and use Luminar Neo most of the time. It gives me pro‑looking results without the learning curve of Photoshop and I like that I only paid once”
“I've been using Luminar Neo for quite some time, and let me tell you, this tool is all you need. Nice basic features and new AI features make it a complete package. Erase not needed elements - done! Enhance bad lightning - in seconds. Edit multiple photos with favourite settings - batch editing is here for me.”
“My students who are beginner photographers often get confused by the complex interfaces of Photoshop or Affinity. Luminar Neo has become a great alternative: its interface is minimalistic, but at the same time it hides a huge number of advanced functions. For example, the Supersharp module now supports depth of field adjustment, which is critical for shooting with a small depth of field. I tested it on photos with f/1.4 — Neo carefully pulls up only the necessary areas without global sharpening.”
“Instead of a thousand lessons — one interface. I always put off learning photo editing because of ""scary"" programs like Photoshop. But in Luminar Neo, everything is intuitive. Even the layers are conveniently implemented.”
“I highly recommend Luminar Neo to any landscape photographer. The software makes my photos stand out without requiring much effort on my part. It’s simple, effective, and saves so much time.”
“I was pleasantly surprised by how intuitive the editing process has become. I used to spend hours on other programs, but here everything just happens by itself. You just turn it on and get carried away.”
“I have long loved Luminar Neo for its AI features, but recently I discovered its cataloging capabilities. Now you can create multiple catalogs, save the folder structure, add tags and create temporary albums - everything works like a lightweight Lightroom. For those with a huge photo library, this is a huge plus.”
“The latest update brought two very useful things: Auto Adjust and cache cleaning right in the settings. Auto Adjust is not just an automatic improvement, it balances exposure, contrast and shadows on the fly, while preserving the histogram without losses. And cache cleaning really speeds up the work: it is especially noticeable when working with hundreds of RAW files - Luminar Neo has stopped “slowing down”. This is especially useful for those who have already encountered interface slowdowns in previous versions.”
“Nice interface, not overloaded with unnecessary things. Sometimes this is exactly what you need to want to create. Instead of a bunch of incomprehensible icons and complex processing, everything is very clear, but photo editing is quite professional”
“Efficient and powerful editing. Luminar’s AI Sky Replacement feature is so good! It completely transforms the mood of the photo in just a few clicks, perfect for landscape photographers like me.”
“Photoshop + Luminar = the perfect pair. I use Luminar Neo as a Photoshop plugin — and it’s the best working tandem. I start with basic corrections in Photoshop, then switch to Neo for magic: skies, dust, portraits, textures. I like that everything is edited in layers. This makes Luminar a great companion for a professional pipeline.”
“I am not a professional photographer, but rather a visual experimenter. I often combine shots, play with color and textures. Neo has become for me that very “sandbox” where you can create without fear of ruining the original. I liked how the application organizes the workspace: everything is in its place, nothing irritates.”
“I work with e-commerce. Shooting, retouching, removing the background, adjusting the style — it used to take a week. With Luminar Neo, I did it in an evening.”
“For those who already work in Photoshop or Lightroom, Luminar Neo is an ideal plugin for speeding up and decorating. But it can also be used as a standalone solution.”
