Cull and Edit an entire wedding in 1 Hour with Aftershoot

A program for the lazy and the miserable. No AI can select photos as well as the author himself. You are either not photo artists or just bombers who know nothing about creativity. You don't need to show your miserliness. Soon you'll be shooting for food through this AI, because the client eventually sees and understands everything. The profession of photographer is becoming gentler than a janitor!

I don't know if I should get Aftershoot to sort all my family photos taken from mobile phones. I don't find a lot of user reviews of this software which makes it very suspicious of how there cannot be users of this fantastic, proclaimed software. 15$ for a month is expensive for a software which doesn't find a lot of buyers.

I have been using another one that charges per image. I am switching and haven't even downloaded it. Thank you for this.

culling ai software are bs. it takes less time doing it my self. i tried aftershoot. just to analyze and process some 1200 photos took around 20 minutes. after that a had to look at all the photos selected by the software to make sure it did a good job. so wat is the point? the best solution for me now is bridge that is fast enough and photomechanic (my favourite for now) that is blazing fast! it took me only 15 minutes to cull 1200 photos manually. do the test yourself. don't get fooled by these very well crafted advertisiment.

Meaning can read raw file?

Does anyone have experience with Imagen AI versus Aftershoot? Which is better, or is there another program that is newer and better? Is this the best?

So you use AI to cull it, then you check it all anyways 🤣 and you can batch edit on photo shop with your presets. Remember different venues and rooms are not the same.

Love this concept. Do you think it would work on wildlife photos? I have thousands of images from a recent shoot and am looking for something to help cull. Great work Fstoppers!!!

Why in the name of God would anyone need to shoot 441 images for a family session?

I see you spoke about Lightroom catalogs, might this work for Capture One users by any chance? that's where a tonne of my edits are already and I would hate having to re edit through lightroom to recreate a signature through it

Aftershoot is not very good. Still lots of photos it picks that are blurry or someone is blinking. It also doesn’t allow presets to be applied you still have to manually go through them all.

This is a very promising tool. Like any automated tool – we will be comparing the efficiency gain to the cost of status quo (ie, photographer cost, outsource costs local and offshore). While it is easy to get distracted by a $20-50 a month fixed cost, the math is pretty straightforward: what is one hour of a photographer's time worth (either in revenue potential or value of life). If this saves more than an hour a month, then it can be a major bargain. Time and testing will tell! Running a McBook Pro with M2 chip – Culling sports images 2,000-5,000 per event. starting trail this month.

This is awesome! I do have one question though…does this mean my photos (previous ones…the one that AFTERSHOOT uses as an "example") have to be edited in Lightroom? Because I do retouch ONLY in photoshop…

What a time to be alive, we are finally arriving into era of the future that we have waited for so long.

As an experiment, I'm going to try this on the next rugby game I do, just to see how it interoperates the images and corrects them.

I'm mostly sold, but I'm curious, will the program export to Lightroom CC if we choose? I know a lot of people prefer Lightroom Classic, but I actually enjoy having a cloud storage of all my files that I can access from anywhere. I still make local backups, but CC is my primary program I use, and as nuanced of a detail as it might be, being able to integrate/export to it is a must have for me.

As an AfterShoot affiliate, this was a great explanation. Thanks, Lee!

Not totally convinced by AI editing, but of course it can learn from your style, culling seems very useful. One thing for me is as more and more AI built into software means having to upgrade computers more often and or components as I've already found if I wish to use Adobe denoise AI, now need a new graphics cards mine can't cope. So cost wise not just extra monthly fee, hardware upgrades more often too. All for anything that assists but for someone who doesn't do it professionally but still takes tons of images costs in using so many different bits of software too much, so hope Adobe bring out similar type of AI

Could of sworn there were like 3 other software’s like this within the past couple years. Don’t get why this is being pushed as new… nonetheless interesting.

Any AI video editors out there?
