Portrait Professional or PortraitPro is a Windows and Mac based portrait imaging enhancement software targeted at professional and keen amateur photographers. Developed by Anthropics Technology Ltd and first released in July 2006, it has been in continuous development ever since.

The current software, version 18, was released in October 2018, the previous version, 17, was released in October 2017.[1]

PortraitPro, PortraitPro Studio, and PortraitPro Studio Max are image editors for Windows and Mac OS X, specifically targeted at editing portrait photographs.[2]

Rather than using brushes alone as a traditional image editor does, PortraitPro 'instantly detects faces in each image opened' and applies automatic retouching.[3] Further transformations are done through sliders or brushes. One of the unique, but controversial[4] abilities is automatically reshaping the face to fit a model of beauty.[5][6]

The Studio editions do the above and additionally handle raw files, 16 bit per color component TIFF files and color profiles. It is also available as a Photoshop plugin. The Studio Max edition offers automatic batch processing in which multiple images are retouching automatically by the software.

PortraitPro is available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese. Older versions are also available in Swedish, Arabic, Chinese, Korean and Japanese.[14]

Cultural impact[edit]

The cultural impact of airbrushing software being readily available to anyone is a proliferation of airbrushed images being used on social media profiles and online dating sites.[15]

Portrait editing software such as Portrait Professional enables anyone to easily alter their own portrait photographs, making themselves look younger, with less wrinkles and blemishes.[16][17]

History[edit]

Version 8 improved face sculpting and slimming, user interface, color calibration and raw support in the Studio version.[20]
