Want AI to do the heavy lifting on a photo while you keep the final say? Luminar Neo’s tools cover common corrections as well as creative changes to skies, backgrounds, portraits, and landscapes.
AI-assisted adjustments
Accent AI adjusts hue, saturation, highlights, contrast, and detail through a single slider. It offers a quick starting point for balancing an image, while manual controls let photographers shape the final result.
For portrait work, Portrait Bokeh softens the background and provides depth correction and skin retouching. Sky Replacement changes the sky in a landscape or outdoor image. Structure enhancement adds another option for adjusting image detail.
What can Luminar Neo change in a photo?
The toolset includes both cleanup tasks and larger compositional edits. Clear power lines out of a city shot or sensor dust from a picture, then use Background Removal when a subject needs to be separated from its surroundings.
- Panorama Stitching combines images into a wider view.
- Focus Stacking brings multiple focus ranges together.
- Magic Light adds a lighting effect to an image.
From quick corrections to creative edits
A typical edit can start with Accent AI for broad tonal and color adjustments, followed by a targeted tool such as dust removal or portrait retouching. For a more substantial change, photographers can replace a sky or remove a background, then fine-tune the result with manual adjustments.
