It lets you reduce shine on a person’s forehead or cheeks, making for a more evenly-lit portrait. In the AI Skin Enhancement tool, you’ll find a new Shine Removal Technology. No matter what the skin color or age of the person, Luminar 4.2 will recognize faces - even if it’s a group photograph. Check out the example below to see the power of the new Face Features Detection Network: It even recognizes those badly lit or partially hidden faces, as well as those with heavy makeup. This technology is trained to detect different faces no matter what position, angle or tilt they might be in. With today’s update, we’re introducing a new Face Features Detection Network, which enables us to give you even more accurate and realistic automation when it comes to enhancing portraits.

And so far, photographers have loved the enhanced controls and adjustments they can make to their portraits! When Luminar 4 launched, we announced some new, groundbreaking tools to help you optimize your portraits.

You can drag the new element around the sky for ultimate control, yet retain those realistic qualities. Using content-aware technologies, foreground objects are recognized and taken into account, making the object blend naturally with your existing scene. AI Augmented Sky detects your photo’s sky automatically and then places the chosen element directly into the sky area. Inside the Creative tab of Luminar 4.2, you’ll find a new tool called AI Augmented Sky. This tool lets artists choose objects from the curated Luminar collection or upload their own, and blend them seamlessly with the photograph’s sky. There are three BIG improvements you can “live test” on their interactive press release page. Skylum launched the new free Luminar 4.2 update ($10 discount with our code “43RUM”).
