cf/x photo crop PRO

Cropping images is one of the most basic, but also most important tasks in photography and (lately) image processing. A good image can become stunning when, through careful cropping, uninteresting parts are dropped, and the remaining parts are re-composed to look dramatically better.

Modern digital cameras now offer high pixel densities. This allows photographers to be less careful composing the image while shooting, and then re-crop the image in post processing. Thus, the very basic art of cropping images has become more important than ever.

Many photo management and -processing applications nowadays provide basic crop features. As most professional photographers can attest however, these functions are mostly rudimentary in functionality, and seem to be added as an afterthought. This is a problem because, in our experience, cropping a photo can do more to the way your images look (good or bad) than any other step (including color processing).

We took our in-house croping tool, and created a sharply focused, simple to use app out of it. We named it ‘Photo Crop PRO’ and brought it to the App Store. Since then it has become the high water mark in photo cropping software.

photo crop PRO is a high-volume cropping application. Work through an entire shoot in minutes:

Load up a couple of dozen images into the pipeline, and start cropping. Use ‘Crop & Next’ to simultaneously crop the current image and load the next image into the crop editor. Of course photo crop PRO is smart enough to preserve the crop area, and even scales it if you image is of a different size.
