Feature

Develop.

Edit photos like a colourist without ever losing the original.

Develop is SEshot’s editor. It uses the same ideas as desktop colour grading software: work from broad corrections to fine colour, check the scopes, then add a look. Every change is a set of instructions stored next to the photo, so the original is never altered.

SEshot Develop screen with light sliders and a before and after split — Light: exposure, contrast and tone, with a before and after split.

SEshot colour wheels with an RGB parade scope — Wheels: lift, gamma and gain with an RGB parade.

SEshot Look panel with Teal and Orange, Blockbuster and Neo Noir looks — Look: built-in looks and your own LUTs.

Adjustments

Light: exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks.
Colour: temperature, tint, vibrance and saturation.
Curves, colour wheels (lift, gamma, gain, offset) and detail.
RAW files are developed from the original RAW data.

Looks

Built-in looks in Film, Cinematic, B&W, Vintage and Creative styles, with adjustable strength.
Import your own .cube LUTs; favourite the ones you use most.

Non-destructive

Edits are saved the way Apple Photos saves them: change them any time or revert to the original.
Copy adjustments from one photo and paste all or part of them onto others.
Save as a new copy, or edit photos from your cloud storage and save them back.

The Develop tab

Every photo you have edited in one place, newest first, with Continue Editing.
Start a new edit from your library, the Files app or a cloud service.

The terms, in plain words

Non-destructive: SEshot saves your adjustments as a recipe, not new pixels. You can reopen a photo months later, change any slider, or go back to the original.
Lift, gamma, gain: Colour wheels for the shadows, midtones and highlights. Push a wheel towards a colour to tint that part of the image, for example warm highlights and cool shadows.
Curves: Reshape brightness and contrast precisely by bending a line, for the whole image or a single colour channel.
Look: A preset grade such as Warm Negative, Teal & Orange or Neo Noir. Use the strength slider to blend it with your own edit.
LUT (.cube): A colour lookup table: a file that maps every colour to a new one. Cameras, colourists and apps like DaVinci Resolve export them; SEshot imports them.
Copy and paste: Copy an edit from one photo and paste all of it, or only some parts, onto others to keep a series consistent.
