Alien Skin Announces Exposure X Bundle
19 April 2016
Alien Skin Software has introduced its Exposure X Bundle, a software collection that features Exposure X, Snap Art 4 and Blow Up 3.
The centerpiece of the bundle is Exposure X, the editing app that streamlines your workflow and provides a rich set of creative tools. We published a multi-part review of Exposure X after its launch last year.
Also included in the bundle are Blow Up 3, which "enlarges your photos into large prints with the sharpest resizing technology available," and Snap Art 4, which transforms your photos with sophisticated painterly effects that include canvas or paper texture. We have also reviewed Snap Art 4.
"The Exposure X Bundle exemplifies our core design philosophy: making it easy for photographers to create beautiful images that inspire and delight," said Alien Skin CEO Finley Lee. "Photographers can now manage their entire photography workflow from within Exposure X and create amazing inspired looks with all three integrated tools. And, the new Exposure X Bundle adds real savings to any photographer's budget by offering a 57 percent savings over buying each of the three programs separately."
PRICE, AVAILABILITY
The Exposure X Bundle is available now from Alien Skin for $199. Owners of one or more of the apps in the Exposure X Bundle can purchase the bundle for $119.

Alien Skin Software Announces the Exposure X Bundle
Three award-winning photo editing apps integrated into a single product, offering creative possibilities, streamlined workflows and compelling value
RALEIGH, N.C. -- Alien Skin Software today introduced the Exposure X Bundle, a software collection that integrates three award-winning Alien Skin photo editing apps. The Exposure X Bundle helps photographers quickly organize, edit and enhance their photos. It also enables photographers to transform their photos into beautiful, handcrafted works of art and to enlarge their photos while retaining clarity.
The Exposure X Bundle adapts to any workflow. Photographers can use it as a standalone product and enjoy the integration of Exposure X with the Snap Art and Blow Up apps or they can run each app separately as a plug-in with Adobe Lightroom or Adobe Photoshop.
"The Exposure X Bundle exemplifies our core design philosophy: making it easy for photographers to create beautiful images that inspire and delight," said Alien Skin CEO Finley Lee. "Photographers can now manage their entire photography workflow from within Exposure X and create amazing inspired looks with all three integrated tools. And, the new Exposure X Bundle adds real savings to any photographer's budget by offering a 57 percent savings over buying each of the three programs separately."
Creative Possibilities
The Exposure X Bundle enables photographers of all skill levels to add a human touch to their digital photos through an extensive, carefully researched library of analog presets. Together, these looks encompass many subtle changes that work together to inspire a specific emotion and cover every interesting corner of photographic history. Photographers can explore these visual ideas for creative inspiration and then customize them to develop their own style.
Intuitive editing panels enable users to make detailed adjustments to an image. These robust tools cover everything from common adjustments like exposure, vibrance and hue, through more advanced adjustments like film grain, overlays and effects stacking. Natural media effects like oil paint and watercolor provide further creative possibilities for users who want to transform their photos into beautiful artworks.
Flexible Features
The Exposure X Bundle is a flexible, full-featured editor that provides all the features that photographers rely on in a professional photo manager. The centerpiece of the bundle is Exposure X, a non-destructive photo editor that accepts Raw images from a wide range of popular cameras.
The Exposure X Bundle handles the full photography workflow and does so quickly. Its organization, culling and bookmarking tools help photographers manage their library. Photographers can configure the user interface so that they see only the tools they need and can create and save custom presets. The Exposure X Bundle also handles image enlargement, keeping enlarged photos crystal clear and sharp around the edges.
Streamlined Workflows
Exposure X Bundle users spend their time making creative decisions, not learning complicated software. A catalog- and import-free workflow streamlines and speeds up the editing process. Users simply browse to an image folder and begin editing.
Photographers can now launch Snap Art and Blow Up directly from within Exposure X, eliminating the need to launch either app from Photoshop or Lightroom. The Exposure X Bundle works with cloud storage tools, enabling users to edit their photos from any location and to collaborate with other photographers on image edits.

The Exposure X Bundle is available now from http://www.alienskin.com for $199. Owners of one or more of the apps in the Exposure X Bundle can purchase the bundle for $119.
