Features

Organise photos by faces and places. Aperture 3 advances the Faces and Places technology in iPhoto. It features new ways to organise your photos by the people in them and more robust GPS tools for mapping images.

Perfect your images with brushes. Apply or remove adjustments and effects to selected parts of your images with nondestructive, edge-aware brushes. A set of 15 Quick Brushes handles the most common touch-up jobs.

Adjustment presets. Instantly give your images a custom look or emulate a variety of camera types and processing styles. Choose from dozens of ready-to use presets, create your own, or import presets from other Aperture users.

Advanced slideshows. Create stunning slideshows that weave together photos and HD video clips. Add text using your choice of fonts, styles and colours. Build a layered soundtrack with location audio clips and music tracks.
