Edit less, create more
Aperty enables you to automate routine face retouching, freeing you up to take more photographs and focus on growing your business. And thanks to its advanced, adjustable and advanced masking tools, you can take as much control as you need to ensure that the results are exactly what you want.
Unlike other apps, Skylum has worked with Trotti to deliver the exact tools that portrait photographers need. These include:
Skin Toning An accurate skin segmentation model enables subtle tonal changes to specific areas, whether it’s removing redness or creating more harmonious colors. Unique makeup correction capabilities are made possible by the face mesh model, to apply textures such as highlighting and contouring as well lip and brow color adjustments.
Eye Enhancement They’re the most important part of portraits, and Aperty helps make them perfect. Adjust eye shape, remove redness and add iris flare with a range of precise tools.

Body Enhancement Whether you’re correcting postures or accounting for unflattering angles, the ability to adjust bodily proportions ensures that your subjects are always captured in their best light.
