## What is LUMINS?

Create expressive, natural and cinematic light with LUMINS.

LUMINS takes its name from the Latin word “Lumen, Luminis”, which means “light”. 
This origin reflects the purpose of the app: giving you precise control over how light shapes mood, depth and atmosphere in your photos.

Every tool is designed to let you control how light behaves inside your photo, from subtle glow to dramatic rays, from natural shadows to atmospheric color.
LUMINS gives you the ability to enhance illumination, refine depth and create mood with precision and clarity.

Key Features:

- Light and Glow: whether you are editing portraits, landscapes or creative imagery, LUMINS gives you full control over how light interacts with your scene
- Volumetric and Tyndall Effects: create realistic directional light passing through windows, trees or objects. Produce depth and atmosphere commonly seen in high quality photography
- Starburst and Lens Effects: add bloom, star highlights, reflections and artistic lens characteristics that enrich the texture and mood of your photos
- Shadow and Depth Tools: shape shadows to build dimension and contrast. Control intensity, softness and direction to create dimension and natural contrast
- Sky Replacement: replace skies and harmonize tones and lighting to achieve a unified, realistic atmosphere
- Color and Mood Controls: refine tones, adjust warmth or coolness, add gradients and design color palettes that transform the atmosphere of your photos
- Filters Optimized for Light: use curated filters optimized to support glow, tonal depth and atmosphere. These are designed for realistic light, not generic looks
- Precision Brushes and Masks: apply localized adjustments exactly where needed. Edit light, shadows and color with fine control

How It Works

1. Import your photo and choose the light or mood you want to create
2. Adjust glow, shadows, atmosphere and color with intuitive sliders
3. Add volumetric rays, star highlights or depth-enhancing tones
4. Export your enhanced photo and share it

Express the full meaning of “Lumen” in every shot.
