They have a version in the Mac App Store but it’s not updated to the new hotness until well after the pay per device version. I used to really like Elements, but they charge huge upgrade fees pretty much every year. If you can’t afford that steep price, you can buy the less capable but still really excellent Photoshop Elements for $80. In three years you’ll spend $360 on image editing and organization. You do get the very popular and capable Lightroom software along with it so I’m not saying it’s not a good value, but inexpensive it is not. You can’t buy it month to month so it’s really $120 per year, paid monthly. I don’t ever want to hear a NosillaCastaway call it $10/month, because that’s simply not true. Unfortunately Adobe have chosen to go with a subscription model, at $120 per year. They fall into a few categories, the first being money, or lack of disposable money: The big daddy of photo editing and art creation is, of course, Photoshop.

Let’s define some problems to be solved first. I’m preparing a video for Don McAllister’s ScreenCasts Online podcast, so I’m learning a lot about it right now and the more I study it, the more I like it. I wanted to give you a more in depth look into this fabulous new program and why even if you’re not a huge photography fanatic, you might still want to give it a look. If you heard Chit Chat Across the Pond this week with Devin King, you’ll have heard me chat a bit about it as a fantastic image editor. I have fallen in love with Affinity Photo.
