Thank you for this in-depth update. That flyaway beta looks insane. Although you must not worry about solid studio backgrounds as a wedding photographer, I have found the background cleanup feature alone worth the price of admission alone. Very powerful. And I always love seeing your images of Tatum and Tess.
I have contacted them exactly about that. As a hobby shooter I do not retouch 1200 portraits in a year. They wrote, that if I do not use the credits before year's end I can contact them and we can talk. No clear statement, unfortunately.
Luminar vs this and you can only choose one, what would you use and why if you don't mind. Looking for options for editing and trying to sort through all the options.
I was very apprehensive to try this but now I'm loving it, especially the flyaways. I'm a portrait photographer, mostly studio, and able to deliver more edits to my clients without being up to 2 in the morning lol. My only wish is for the ability to work with Lightroom or Photoshop better. I'd love to load my images from Evoto directly from lightroom, like a plug in, and have my Evoto edits drop back into LR. Then from LR I can select the images I need to do some extra edits in PS. I just hate exporting TIFF files from LR, doing the Evoto edits, then uploading again. I know Evoto wants to be a stand alone, but I catalog everything in LR and I'm loving generative fill/expand in PS so I can't give those up! Maybe influencers like you could convince them to incorporate Evoto into the Adobe workflow, and still be able to charge for the edits. Anyway, sorry for the rant...thanks for sharing this!
@@VanessaJoy I did message them with that request. Their answer was they wanted to be stand alone, but that's a big ask. Maybe you and others in the business could request as well? I'm sure it would have more weight coming from you :)
I will check it out, I dont really understand photoshop. The catchlights model in the middle looked to have way to much skin smoothing for me im not into the plastic look 🙂
As far as I know they don’t actually expire, mine haven’t anyway, and from what I’ve heard from others they’re open to a conversation about rolling it over. They’re a small company so it’s easy to get good customer service. Just reach out!
So, to me, this stuff is spooky. The newer Canon DPP 4 seems to do some of this. I shot a post-baptism with an R3/RF 24-70. I typ shoot sports so I just let the R3 do the driving other than register an exposure ref spot away from window. Pulled into DPP4 and a bunch of subtle skin & wrinkle stuff just smoothed away. Couldnt figure out how to turn it off but the folks loved it. Thanks for showing this. Appreciated the affordability and interesting billing structure that gives the company feedback on what has value to consumers. Still havent opened a vein for Adobe, so this stuff is good to know. So is retouching pretty much assumed now for wedding photography? Is there a point where people push back that they feel it's dishonest or are they mostly just glad to get good pics that aren't burdened by strands of fly-away hair? Child-like question I guess.
I understand the “professional photographers need speedy edits” thing, because you aren’t really photographing for the sake of the art, but at some point paying for portraits becomes expensive enough that I would think you’d have to consider the art as well, e,g. Knowing when the boundaries of a good honest photo are about to be broken in editing. To me, most of these examples, especially the skin-edits, are totally artificial, and break that boundary… on another note… I don’t think any client being presented with the non AI version would like it any less… photos are reminders to evoke memories, and as such nitpicky editing make zero difference…. In fact it might just harm the memory
@@mortenthorpe @mortenthorpe Yep. More broadly it's kind of a question of who we think we are. You'll notice when photography 1st came out in the late 1800's nobody smiled. The point was to catch a record. To discover (and document) what you looked like outside of the narrow portal provided by a mirror. To smile probably would have seemed false. Now, if we're posed in a line up we feel a little naked without smiling. "No. I'm not sad. Why do you ask?" or "See that guy in the middle of the line who's not smiling? He looks mad. I wonder if he needs therapy?" And so on. Not sure what was going on in DPP4 with that set of shots. I have a very fast computer but in that session pictures emerged over a fraction of a second. You could see an overly contrast-y gravely image with age spots and things overly pronounced, be suddenly absorbed by beautiful, relatively smooth-skinned people. Eyes were sharp but only the largest of age spots remained in a faded form. Beautiful but subtle. Maybe I was witnessing the interpretation of RAW that naturally occurs. I had just upgraded and maybe Canon threw in a brief sample of the neural processing feature that they now charge a monthly fee for. (My best guess) ... or perhaps God was trying to say "This baptism is special."?!? .. or maybe I'm just THAT good of a photographer : ) When I shoot sports it's fast, at a distance. Lettering on the balls may be clear but not the pores on your skin. That being said, I don't think I'm seeing the same effect on the sports shots. Sports is shot on M. This was P with tweeks. Maybe that means something. I do agree with Canon that the R3 seems to resolve as well or a bit better than a 5D-MkIV. Maybe there's some better AI included in that. I'm kinda with Vanessa's sentiment of "touch-ups only if they ask for it." At a wedding they've asked you to record their special day, to capture the best of its flavor and light .... but not to invent it. There have been a couple of brief moments in my marriage when the wedding pictures that my wife placed artfully around the house were part of what held that commitment before God together. I don't think those photos would have that same power if we felt the images had been "cooked."
Follow-up. Seeing the same thing with sports photos. Unfolds over about 4 seconds. This may just be a sharpening mechanism or advanced processing of the raw. It does seem to support some very small cropped zones despite the 24mpix
Happy Holidays, Vanessa and Happy New Year to you. Does the remove wrinkle feature work on a backdrop that has a few unwanted and unplanned creases in it?
I think people should learn to appreciate the beauty of imperfection. I don't know, but most people, however, prefer something perfectly fake, and there is always money in that.
I do not like subscription software. I will wait until ON-1 or Luminar offer these features in their standard upgrades. Considering the speed of AI tech these days, it won't be long. Happy New Year Vanessa...
Yes, I know, but I do not want to pay (use credits) every time I use it. I prefer that it is a standalone program that I can buy, and do as many photos as needed. Thank you for the video, I had not heard of this company.@@VanessaJoy
Eh it's ok but I wouldn't call it 'retouching' more like a small touch up. I wouldn't never send any of these results to a client without tons of extra work. The wrinkles didn't actually remove anything in his shirt...
@@VanessaJoy That's fair enough, art is always subjective, I do love the style of your videos though. On the wrinkles 7:46 ... a fair amount of these wrinkles have been removed but to me this looks like harsh frequency separation with no editing. If you look at the colors top left and right, off blue discolouring. Then under his shirt picket green hue which come from smoothing out the tone. Drastic difference but still needs a lot of work. I was looking more at time stamp 8:00 which looks much more natural and a better starting point to edit on top. If this is good enough for you, fair enough.
Vanessa, it really looks like a fantastic tool. The subtlety is impressive. I'll try. By the way: I think you need a pop up filter to soften the microphone's plosives. Happy holidays, a great new year and greetings from Brazil (Rio de Janeiro)
In general these kind of demonstrations show what the potential is but lack in the details because you're not going for a specific change just an overall improvement. If you want to make a specific change in a specific way, there's a good chance this won't match exactly what you're trying To Do. Not saying that's a bad thing. this will probably save a lot of work in the long run but if you have a particular way you want things to be, it may be hard to use software like this because it's generalized to work in generally a good way.
Amazing indeed BUT why do I feel like Lightroom & Photoshop SHOULD be leading in the touchup game? Years ago, when they went to the subscription model I said that they now have less incentive to offer leading upgrades...and here we are. smh
All the Retouchers in the world: Anyone can be a photographer, you don't need Vanessa Joy at your wedding paying 5000 dolars, pay 10 students with iphones 200 dolars each and give them something to drink, you will have amazing images
Most edits look over processed TBH. Why those unicorn eyes? 🤣 Hair tidy is worth a download and try though. Is that works it will save me so much editing time as a commercial photographer. Thanks for sharing. The credit payment system though???? Yukkkk!
It’s subjective. You can back off as much as you’d like. And you pay retouchers per image don’t you? What’s the difference? That’s all you’re doing here except it’s Pennies and you buy in bulk bc credit cards charge 30 cents plus 3% a transaction so if they didn’t charged that way they’d run the risk of literally making negative dollars.
@@VanessaJoy this is another point of view, for sure. More towards an optimistic and proactive way of thinking. But recently (maybe it's only in my social bubble) i've seen a lot of collegues trying to jump to another market and rebranding themselves instead of improving their actual job with theese new tools. As a wedding photographer, I use some AI tools, but I am aware that the photo wedding industry is still a safe market, which cannot be entirely replaced by new AI technologies (assuming that there are no spouses so lazy as to want to recreate their marriage with midjourney). My "sadness" comes from the fact that in a very short time some colleagues have decided to abandon the photography ship from the point of view of practical execution and have hastily embraced the concept of content creator/teacher. Nothing bad, but it leaves me a little bitter. A final thought on commissioned portrait photography. How long will it take to get people used to the fact that instead of having a portrait taken by a real photographer, it will be enough to upload a photo with your cell phone to obtain a perfect, or even imperfect, portrait according to the exact specifications of the client? This is already a reality, and I see these "middle" tools as a very short-lived moment of transition imho.
@@VanessaJoy Ok so I had my friend play the video and I now realize that you just threw a name out there. I thought maybe TH-cam had some new feature where it would verbally speak the name of the viewer! That would be insane.
@@ed61730 well that’s why I put an explanation or a warning on these types of videos. Whoever wants to listen and actually learn will do so. Ai will destroy the mid tier part of the industry and the low tear will continue to be a race to the bottom. True high end will evolve and use ai to help with small issues that weren’t corrected in camera or couldn’t because humans are built with imperfections. Most Photographers will continue thinking they are retouchers due to ai. Not bother to master the final third of the wholistic photography triangle.
@@000CloudStrife This is true, it's about using everything together. Generative fill for exmaple has changed my workflow so much when used with everything else.
@@000CloudStrife Retouching is an artform and is mostly drawing, whether dodge and burn or compositing. This ai is great and will really speed up our workflows... but it's not retouching.
OMG‼️ Just seen the pricing! This video is a shameless plug for yet another over priced photography tool. And don’t even think of trying to justify the cost by copying and pasting all the usual excuses…
Yeah I don’t find pennies an image expensive personally, but I run a profitable photography business which might be different than others who don’t understand what costs of business are 🤷🏻♀️
There pricing I a rip off. If the software is installed on your computer they should allow people to buy it. Or even a subscription service would be better. They are a dirty company.
Vanessa,i have been following you for about a year. Not for your retouching abilites, but for your posing and lighting tips. I have to say, I am dissapointed. The AI money truck has parked in every influencers driveway. I hoped better for you. You are pushing trash software for your own monetary benefit. This software is garbage. Please, take a long look in the miirror. Know that there are a lot of new photographers out there that are easily influentled. I know the money is easy, but stick to your roots. You and many others need to stop this. ...now I know, your going to jump on the defence, your spicy and thats why i follow you. ...just stop...think.....your steering new photographers down an "easy" path...we both know, its a path to failure. Happy new year. Dont fall into the fad.
My roots are I retouch for my clients, always have, and this software makes my life easier and my clients happier. I personally and commercially use it. Happily. Without being paid to use it in my own business. I’m happily promoting a GOOD product that will help PLENTY of photographers maintain good business practices and keep happy clients. Those of us that actually serve consumers for a living, and need to maintain relevancy in an ever-changing market to keep up with client wishes, understand this. Take a long look in the mirror and stop judging people you think you know. It’s embarrassing.

@@VanessaJoy Oh, cool 👍
Do you know how to send edited photos to Evoto from Lightroom? Is there a way to do this?
Yes you can load from a Lightroom catalog. Just start the program and click the Lightroom import option
Great new features!! You probably covered it last time, but I'm in LOVE with the background enhance and replace too!
Me too!
This is Amazing Vanessa!! I’m loving the new office ❤
Thanks!! Definitely making a video when it’s all done!
Vanessa thank you for this video and clear explanation, I have signed up and my friend as well. The amount of time this save is crazy. ❤

Does the credits expires if not used ?

When you did the stray hair, all of a sudden you can clearly see the evoto watermark that was hidden in the highlights. Why?
Bc you pay upon export so the watermark is there so you don’t screenshot it
I will check it out, I dont really understand photoshop. The catchlights model in the middle looked to have way to much skin smoothing for me im not into the plastic look 🙂
Nice! The best part is it’s so easily adjusted to taste, and then you can save your preferences and paste them on future jobs!
Go look at the packages and what why are priced at on the website. WOW.
