Editing workflow in Luminar Neo

One thing I like about Luminar Neo, is that it makes it easy to accomplish certain tasks that usually will take several steps in other photo editing software. The workflow I used to edit this portrait is the following:

Develop: Selected camera profile(only for RAW images)
Color: Saturated red/orange/yellow/green HSL Saturation sliders.
Glow: Enhance and correct highlights and midtones.
Smart Contrast: Boost selective contrast AI driven.
Vignette: Direct attention to the subject.
Texture overlay: Created a layer on top of the portrait with a canvas texture and centered focus painted vignette.

My Luminar Neo favorite tools

The main reason I am using Luminar Neo more an more in my edits is because of the AI based tools.

Even though some of the adjustments might look exaggerated, I did it like that because I knew that the overlay layer will darken and soften the light due to the “soft light” layer blending mode.
