Photo culling

Also called: culling, auto-cull

Photo culling is the process of narrowing a large shoot down to the keepers by removing blurred, blinked, badly lit, or duplicate frames.

Culling is often the slowest part of a photographer's post-production: a wedding can produce thousands of frames, most of which will never be delivered.

AI-assisted culling scores each photo on sharpness, exposure, and composition, and sorts them into buckets — reject, review, keep — so the photographer makes decisions in one pass instead of many.

Pixeva's Auto Cull Assistant runs this on any gallery and is available on all plans.
