Aftershoot is the fastest and easiest way for photographers to select, rate, and edit their photos automatically. Many photographers take hundreds or even thousands of photos in a day’s work. Selecting photos one-by-one to find the best of the series and removing duplicates, blinks, blurred pictures, or images with poor composition is usually the most monotonous, tedious, and time-consuming part of the workflow. Once those perfect photos have been selected, Aftershoot edits the images in the user's style in a matter of minutes, eliminating the need for thousands of tiny adjustments during the editing process. Aftershoot saves photographers hundred of hours of painstaking culling and editing. By automating the post-shoot workflow of photographers, they get spare time to focus on what really matters - engaging with clients, building portfolios, and recharging away from the computer.
