Who is Aftershoot for?
Aftershoot is aimed at photography. It covers work such as selecting photos (culling): sharpness, eyes, duplicates and the best shot per moment; editing in your own style: applying AI profiles and presets across a whole shoot; and retouching and enhancing: skin, background, noise, sharpness and cropping in batches.
What should I watch out for with AI in photography?
Your photos show recognisable people, often clients and their guests: that is personal data, and as soon as a tool groups or recognises faces, it becomes biometric data (Art. 9 GDPR). So check whether a tool works locally or uploads your photos. Aftershoot, Narrative and Excire select on your own computer; Excire works without the cloud. Neurapix processes in Göttingen on its own hardware and deletes images up to 48 hours after delivery. Watch out for training: Aftershoot states in its privacy statement that collected images and edits are used to train its models, Pixelz uses images for machine learning with the client's consent, and Pic-Time trains on a small share of images from photographers who sign up for this. Luminar Neo sends photos for advanced AI features to external AI partners, including outside the EEA. If you use facial recognition in client galleries, record that in your terms and sign a data processing agreement.
