SUMMARY
Aftershoot's 2026 update expands its AI capabilities beyond culling to encompass a full photography workflow. The software now allows users to cull, edit, retouch, create client galleries, and sell prints without needing external applications like Lightroom or Photoshop. Testing with a wedding shoot of 2,613 RAW files demonstrated rapid culling, AI-driven editing with customizable styles, and advanced retouching features for blemishes and facial details. The integrated client gallery system supports various download options, payment processing via Stripe, and a face-finding filter to facilitate print sales, making it a significant time-saver for professional photographers.
