What’s in the Creative Journey Pass?
The Creative Journey Pass includes six new features. Water Enhancer and SceneExpand have yet to be released at the time of writing.
Studio Light
With Studio Light, you can simulate the effect of using multiple flashes and strobe lights by dropping ‘digital’ light sources into your photo. Moreover, you can adjust the angle of each light source, its intensity, and color, and even add patterns and textures.
Overall, I enjoyed using Studio Light. It is practical, straightforward, and lots of fun. Read Studio Light in Luminar Neo for more information, or watch the video review below.
GenErase
As the name suggests, GenErase is an erase tool that lets you brush away unwanted photographic elements. At the same time, a generative AI algorithm reconstructs the image to make it appear the erased part was never there.
Moreover, GenErase is capable of producing some truly outstanding results. But only sometimes, as GenErase’s biggest problem is consistency. One moment, GenErase pulls off the impossible, and the next, it fails hard. Even when processing the same photo. This makes GenErase highly unpredictable.
Nevertheless, GenErase gives us a glimpse of the future of photo editing and manipulation. Read GenErase Review for more infomation.
GenSwap
With GenSwap, you can use generative AI to add new objects to your photo or swap one photographic element for another.
For example, you might place an old rowing boat on an empty beach, add a bee to a lonely flower, or change a grassy hill into a dune – the possibilities are vast.
Surprisingly, this early iteration of GenSwap works rather well, and I found my imagination to be its most significant limiting factor. Read GenSwap Review for more information.
Neon&Glow
Another self-explanatory feature could be fun combined with Luminar Neo’s Effects Layers.
GenExpand
With GenExpand, you can use generative AI to expand the boundaries of your photo, inserting new features as it goes.
Amazing, GenExpand works pretty well as can produce expanded images that are indistinguishable from an out-of-camera image. As with all of Luminar Neo’s generative AI tools, GenExpand can be unpredictable and can delivery poor and downright peculiar results.
Water Enhancer
With Water Enhancer, you can adjust the color of oceans and rivers to make them more idealistic.

Conclusion
The Creative Journey Pack presents the tools of tomorrow today, which means two things. First, many of these features are unique to the Luminar Neo ecosystem and, thus, incomparable. Second, because tomorrow isn’t here yet, some of the Creative Journey Pack’s tools are a little rough around the edges.
This is particularly true of GenErase. When it works, it really does. However, you can never be sure whether it will or not, so GenErase feels like an exercise in trial and error. In comparison, GenSwap is quite reliable, fun, and sometimes truly impressive.
In contrast, the non-generative AI tools, such as Studio Light and Neon Glow, feel mature and well-polished. While I find Neon Glow somewhat niche, almost anyone will find utility in what Studio Light offers.
Overall, the Creative Journey Pass is shaping up nicely, and I look forward to the final two features. I’ll be testing each of these features as they are released, and if you’d like to be notified of the results, you are welcome to subscribe to my weekly newsletter.
