Steven’s Review
Please scroll down for many more reviews from happy Raya Pro users…
“I have always avoided HDR type programs as I have only ever seen harsh and unnatural results with them. Enter Jimmy McIntyre…Forget about a new camera, a new lens for now. Sit down and spend a small amount of money on this stuff and take the time with it – it has been completely invaluable and pushed me to become a much better editor than I was a few years ago. The best part about it all is that Jimmy is just an all-round helpful guy and really easy to listen to and learn from.”

“I am an extension junky and I must say, since downloading the Raya Pro panel, I’ve stopped looking as it’s got everything I need! Yes, including Frequency Separation – love it!” – Jerry Syder
“I bought this panel today and got stuck on my computer playing with it for 2 hours. I loved it. Maybe it’s me but the selections seem more precise. I’ve been a student of yours for a few years now and my workflow keeps getting better and better because of you. Thanks so much sensei. This panel rocks.” By
“Since I began my own quest to improve my photography and post processing skills, Raya Pro has become my ‘go-to’ tool of choice” – Alistair @ ARD Image
“After experimenting with Digital Blending for some time now, it is a breath of fresh air to be able to use a new and exciting Actions Panel that takes the hassle and time out of the whole process. Easy to install and working like a dream within minutes. Thanks Jimmy” – By Art Hakker Photography
“The ability to control the tonal range and depth of an image is amazing! This is a plugin that I would not want be without in my image post-processing.” – John Galbreath
“I bought Raya Pro a few days ago and today I finally had the time to try it out. WOW man, this thing is awesome!!! I still have to learn how to use the luminasity masks, but both the blend if and the apply image functions are stunning!! Congrats and thank you for this great tool!!” by Peter Földiak

I’m a busy person. What aspects of the workflow will it speed up and simplify?
All of it. Enhancing and correcting colours, dodging and burning, detail extraction, exposure blending, sharpening, crafting vignettes, preparing for the web…they’re all just single clicks of a button that produce the highest possible quality.
Does it create that fake HDR look?
Not at all. Exposure blending in Raya Pro creates gorgeous natural results because it works directly on masks and not the images themselves. So image quality remains as clean as possible.
Can I access complex and powerful features in Photoshop without learning Photoshop?
Absolutely. That’s what Raya Pro is there for. For example, enhancing lovely details and textures in Photoshop can be cumbersome, involving multiple layers, blend modes etc. In Raya Pro, it’s one button. That’s it.

Reviews From Users
“I have been using the Raya Pro panel since it became available. There is not a single photograph in my portfolio that has not been touched by this software! Ease of installation, ease of access and especially ease of use is a key for me to use any piece of photographic software. Raya Pro gets 5 stars on all fronts! Without this software the amount of time I would spend in post-production would be increased significantly. I am a huge fan of Raya Pro and look forward to the next version of the software in February. I have told all my professional friends and they all agree that this is an indispensable piece of the post production puzzle. Kudos Jimmy for taking luminosity masks and actions to the next level.” By Doug Parks

“CONGRATULATIONS…….. Your Raya Pro is simply stunning. Well done on all the hard work you have put in to make this such a tremendous tool. My wife is delighted too, as I will now be in my Image Studio even more, leaving her in peace with the TV. THANK YOU….” By Paul Keates

“Jimmy, I purchased the Rayo Panel and fell in love right away!! What a brilliant tool! Instantly made my workflow so much easier and so easy to use. Amazing job mate!!” By Carey St Hilaire

“Raya Pro is a game changer. I tried to wrap my head around digital blending in the past but never really figured it out. However, with your panel I was able to create luminosity masks with the click of a button AND recover over/under exposed parts of my image with ease. The other instant digital blending are fantastic too. The workflow is well thought out as well, so I was blending in minutes. Thanks Jimmy!!” by Peter DeMarco

“To make HDR (or iHDR) pictures I generally use 32 bit process (Merge to HDR pro) and then use luminosity masking on top of that to get a natural look HDR pic. A few days back I came to know about Raya Pro, created by Jimmy McIntyre. He is a well-known, great landscape/cityscape/
“The below picture I completely blended using Raya Pro without using any HDR merging/blending software. I used features like luminosity masking, warm, color corrections, sharpen and resize actions. I know we could use these features without this tool but it would be very time consuming with lots of effort involved. I will highly recommend using this add-on/plugins for better natural looking HDR pictures” by Partha Roy

“I’ve tried nearly all the buttons / features of the Raya Pro Panel. Works like a bomb! Don’t let my photos fool you; the panel is powerful and I haven’t even scratched the surface (I just had loads of fun pressing all the buttons). I looked for a set of 5 images where there were big shadows and highlights. I then used Rapid Blend method but found that the Apply Image worked better. A little fiddle with the contrast, shadows, highlights, detail and resize / sharpen for the web (all on the same panel) and I was A for Away! Ease of use and good value for money. Last night I did my “virgin” run at luminosity masks using the Raya Pro Panel (test). I tried LM’s once before via another platform some months back and couldn’t fathom it. However, I was able to easily understand Jimmy’s video and use the panel quite easily.” – By Andrew Harvard

“I’ve been following you for quite awhile now and I never knew what a Luminosity Mask was until I started following you. My work flow has changed a lot since then and I can see the changes (For the better) that I’ve made since. I own most of your courses and love them. I did have a hard time trying to figure out how to use luminosity masks at first. When your Easy Panel came out that was a game changer for me and then you gave us Raya Pro that was just so cool. It just made things so much more easy to figure out. I can now go on a shoot with a vision of how I want my picture to look and with Raya Pro I can make it happen. I’m so glad I discovered this method of editing and truly believe that photography starts with the camera and ends when we’re done editing it. It’s gonna be difficult waiting for the next update. Can’t wait to see whats next. Thanks again Sensei.” By Johnny Santiago

“Raya Pro: A MUST HAVE PANEL. Raya Pro is one of the finest panels I have used. It makes digital blending extremely easy – just a click of a button and the blending is done. There are a few great new options I can’t wait to apply in my blending. Thanks to Jimmy for this amazing tool” – By Rustam Azmi
