Framecut - AI Wedding Photo Culling

Framecut - AI Wedding Photo Culling

Cull 1,000 raw wedding photos down to your best 100 in under 10 minutes, so you can edit and deliver faster.

Wedding photographers spend 4-6 hours per event manually culling 1,000+ raw images down to 100-300 deliverables, directly bottlenecking their delivery speed and revenue capacity. Existing tools still take 20-90 minutes and lack wedding-specific intelligence for detecting emotional moments, expressions, and multi-shooter consistency.

Rapid AI Culling EngineMVP

Local GPU-accelerated model scores 1,000+ raw images in under 10 minutes for technical quality (focus, exposure, noise) and compositional quality.

2
Wedding-Specific DetectionMVP

Detects blinks, closed eyes, unflattering expressions, and identifies emotional peak moments like first kiss, vows, and laughter using a wedding-trained classifier.

3
Smart Duplicate GroupingMVP

Groups burst sequences and near-duplicates, auto-selecting the sharpest frame with the best expressions from each cluster.

4
Lightroom & Capture One ExportMVP

Exports selections as star ratings, color labels, or flags directly into Lightroom Classic catalogs and Capture One sessions.
