Title: Highly Recommend
Review: I'm super new to photo editing and I found Luminar very easy to use. The interface is super clean and easy on the eyes. I would definitely agree that this is for beginners and experts alike! I highly recommend not only for the amazing features but also the great price point.

Title: Great price; very powerful.
Review: Pro: Good priced for a very powerful editing tool Like very much that it is a one time cost - no subscription fees. Con: Does not produce JPEG images directly as an output from editing. Rather, produces its own file type. A separate step is needed to convert to JPEG.

Title: Awesome tool!
Review: Can't stress enough how much I love using this tool. It is affordable, easy to use, and does wonders on all types of photos. I use it on all pictures I have, whether it's old, new, from my SLR, or from my iPhone, it really brings them to life. I would high recommend this.

Title: Updated....No customer service! No download link!
Review: Customer service did reply but it was slow. I was told to create an account an all my purchases would be in the account. it worked out and I have access to my software now. I still don't like the fact that I cannot get a disk to use if I am offline somewhere in the wilderness.I reformated my computer and need to reload this on my Mac. This is why I don't like "downloads" versus a disk!! I have my proof o purchase and the key codes I can't get a link to load a fresh copy and no one from Skylum is responding to my requests for a link!

Review: I tried the trial of this and loved it, I’m addicted to photography and this app does not disappoint! It brings endless possibilities to bring my photos to life. It has been great to even apply this to some of my older work. The Accent - AI Filter has added new life to some of my older photos. This app also provides layers inside itself, thus allowing me not to have to go back and forth between Photoshop to add a new layer. There are at least 50 filters or more in here to play with! Great tool, A must have in your back of tricks, possible replacement for my Nik filter set. Here is a black and white I did from a trip to Yosemite using Luminar AI filter and B&W this year.
