You sound like an Adobe salesperson. A little misleading saying almost all photographers use Adobe when masses left when they began to rent their software. Affinity Photo and Capture One Pro are very popular with professional photographers for many reasons. Just in case anyone new to photography might believe what you are saying.

[@MyBigCamera]

Hi, thanks for your feedback. I am not an Adobe salesperson or affiliated with them in any way. I made the comment based on my own experience and most photographers in the newborn photography niche use Photoshop or Lightroom. That being said, I'm sure there are some that don't. I apologize if my comment was ignorant. Thanks for providing alternative options
