Radiant Imaging Labs is proud to announce the release of Radiant Photo 2, the latest evolution in photo editing software. Packed with smart features, advanced tools, and powerful workflows, Radiant Photo 2 elevates creativity and efficiency, making professional-quality results accessible to everyone.
“Photographers deserve tools that don’t just meet standards—they raise them,” said Elia Locardi, CEO of Radiant Imaging Labs and professional photographer. “Radiant Photo 2 is designed to do exactly that. By intuitively understanding each photo—its lighting, subject, and background—it delivers results that are both precise and effortless. It’s more than editing software; it’s a tool built to empower photographers and creators to achieve their best work without compromise.”
AI with a Purpose
Radiant Photo 2 uses Artificial Intelligence, but unlike other software, it does not employ Generative AI. Its goal is simple: to enhance your existing pixels to their fullest potential while keeping you in complete control of your image. The software ensures that no personal data is transferred to the company or the cloud. All edits are processed locally on users’ devices, guaranteeing speed, privacy, and security. Radiant Photo 2 is committed to respecting intellectual property and empowering users with Assistive AI that enhances photographers’ creativity rather than replacing it.
Key Highlights of Radiant Photo 2
Intelligent Scene Detection for Faster Editing
The software automatically detects the type of scene—landscape, portrait, or other—and adjusts the image accordingly upon loading it into Radiant Photo. For each recognized scene, Radiant Photo 2 offers tailored Develop Settings for different editing styles. Users can then dive deeper into this initial step, using professional editing tools and creative color grading options to achieve the perfect image.
Unique Workflows
Radiant Photo 2 introduces optional workflows tailored to specific photography genres. The first four workflows—portraiture, landscapes, pets, and birds—are available upon release:
- Portraiture Workflow: Includes 10-point skin tone detection, intelligent color-cast correction, and dedicated scenes for studio, environmental, group, and outdoor portraits.

Each workflow is trained to recognize various scenes, enabling precise photo development based on the subject. Workflows include specific color correction and film emulation looks.
