Scott leans on a mix of paid and free tools, depending on your needs.

From the paid side, strongly recommends the (now onOne/ON1) Perfect Photo Suite / ON1 Photo Suite as one of the best all‑around editing systems. It includes:

  1. Portrait retouching (Perfect Portrait)
  2. Layers without Photoshop (Perfect Layers)
  3. Effects and presets (Perfect Effects, Perfect B&W)
  4. Background removal (Perfect Mask)
  5. Resizing for print (Perfect Resize)
  6. Focus control (FocalPoint)
  7. Borders and frames (PhotoFrame)

For free options, highlights Photoscape, GIMP, Ultimate Paint, and PhotoFiltre as solid choices for beginners and budget‑minded photographers.

What kind of editing are you doing most—portraits, landscapes, or something else?
