Make stunning HDR images that look better than ever before!

Are you interested in making beautiful, natural HDR images like you see the pros make? Tired of the “over the top”, over-processed HDR images that you have seen, or even made yourself? Confused about the best methods for creating stunning HDR images in Luminar Neo?

This bundle is for you!

I’ve been taking and editing HDR photos for almost 15 years, and teaching my techniques for about 10 years now. I’ve had my HDR images published in national and regional publications, printed and hung in both private homes and public businesses, I’ve twice been named one of the top 100 travel photographers in the world by online publications, I am a well-known Luminar Neo expert and Skylum Software Ambassador - and I am here to help!

With the HDR Merge extension in Luminar Neo, the image editing process has all come together in one app so you can blend and perfect your images all in one place. No more bouncing from one app to another - blend your bracketed images with the HDR Merge extension in Luminar Neo, and then use the powerful tools inside of Luminar Neo to achieve your creative vision for your shot. It’s all there, and I will show you how to take advantage of it all to make gorgeous photos. I will share before and after examples throughout this page, so you can get a good idea of how this will help you.

NOTE: This bundle is entirely focused on using HDR Merge inside of Luminar Neo. No other HDR products are covered.

Do I really need HDR in 2023 Jim?

That is a GREAT question, and you do not need it all the time, of course. BUT - it can literally save a photo for you in some situations. Even with modern cameras, there are times when you cannot “get it all” in a single exposure. HDR will let you leave the scene knowing you captured the entire dynamic range of the light, which means your resulting edit will be even better. Check the video right there so you can see a demo of this in action!

But doesn’t HDR make cartoonish, over the top images?

No. Well, at times, yes. 😁 But if you control your editing, you can create beautiful images. This bundle is all about modern HDR, which is about control. The over the top images from years ago are history. I will show you how to control your edits using Luminar Neo HDR Merge to make vibrant and beautiful HDR photographs that are also realistic.

This bundle will include everything you need and is focused on helping you get natural and beautiful results. I’m not trying to bring back 2010. 😁


But I haven’t been shooting exposure brackets. Does this help me at all?

Yes! You can use HDR Merge on single exposures and get fantastic results. I do this all the time, and I cover that in this bundle as well. See the transformation of a single exposure in the video right there. —>>

But I use Lightroom to manage my images, not Luminar Neo. Can I still use HDR Merge?

Yes you can! Luminar Neo, and the HDR Merge extension, can be invoked as a plugin from Lightroom. Keep your catalog in Lightroom, send your raw files to HDR Merge in Luminar Neo, edit as needed in Luminar, and then return your blended HDR image to Lightroom.

What about the presets in this bundle? Can I adjust them if I want to?

Of course! Just like any other preset in Luminar Neo, you can see all the tools that make up the preset, and edit them as you see fit. You can then save that edited version as your own preset if you want to. Creativity is in YOUR HANDS!
