My photo editing software has long been Photoshop Elements. I love the user-friendly format and have been using it for years. I upgrade as the new versions come out and have recently upgraded to Photoshop Elements 12. Every time a new version comes out it’s interesting to explore and find out the great new added features.
With Photoshop Elements 12 you will still be able to organize, edit, create, and share your photos but you can do it more quickly and easily thanks to big, bold icons; a helpful Action bar; and the ability to choose from Quick, Guided, and Expert editing modes to fit your needs. It has never been easier to sort and manage photos based on people, places, and events using new Organizer views. Find your photos using visual tags that represent people, places, pets, events, and objects. Of course you will be able to create perfect shots from not so perfect pics with handy editing features that have been enhanced or added to Photoshop Elements 12!
Content Aware Move lets you easily move objects in your photo to get things to look the way you want. We all take shots where everyone is not where we want them, right? Now, take a look at how easily you can fix that.
You can also straighten photos and use Content Aware Fill to fill in any missing background, fix a pet’s eyes with the new pet eye feature edit, use Photomerge Group Shot to take the best faces from a series of group shots and get one spectacular picture. I love this feature, and it has let me get the perfect family photo more times than I can count.
You can share your photos easily right to social media sites with ease because now these options are available not only in the Organizer like previous versions, but right in the editor in Photoshop Elements 12!!! In the quick mode you can now add artistic touches to your photos to put your personal touch on your favorite photos. Add embellishments and frames to make your photos stand out, look at the video below to see just how easy it is!
New filters are available that let you turn your photos into stunning illustrations. Try using the Comic, Graphic Novel, and Pen & Ink filters to get the WOW without all the work! Want step by step guidance? Now there are added edits available in the Guided edit mode. You can restore old photos, make a photo puzzle or add neat effects like the Zoom Burst with ease!
As a wife, mom of 5, blogger, writer, editor, hobby photographer and marketing director, I rely on Photoshop Elements to let me get the look I want as easily and as quickly as I can when editing as many photos as I do. Having the ability to easily organize, edit and share the thousands of photos I take is essential to what I do. Photoshop Elements is my go to choice of editing software because it’s so user-friendly and it lets me make my photos pop. I am loving Photoshop Elements 12 and I know you will too. Mommy Ramblings thinks Photoshop Elements 12 make a great Holiday Gift for the photo moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons and more on your gift list.
