UrbanCrop is a street-photography editor that leads with the crop, not the sliders. The strongest version of a street frame is usually hidden inside the one you already shot — a tighter crop, a cleaner edge, a more deliberate cut. UrbanCrop makes finding that stronger frame the first move, with the reasoning shown rather than hidden.
What it does
- Crop with intent — the editor opens on the crop. It proposes one to three stronger, reasoned crops per frame (thirds reframe, tighten-in, straighten, stronger aspect), each with a one-line reason shown. Free crop or fixed ratios, manual straighten, rotate and flip.
- The complete modern toolset — exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites, blacks; white balance, vibrance, saturation; RGB and per-channel curves; texture, clarity, dehaze, sharpening, noise reduction; vignette. Image-aware Looks and Relight dodge/burn lights. No preset packs, no film looks — recipes derive from the frame.
- RAW support — Ricoh DNG, Nikon NEF and Olympus ORF, alongside JPEG, PNG and WebP. EXIF preserved on JPEG export.
- Your style so far — the editor records the crops and adjustments you keep choosing and reflects your personal style back in plain language. A mirror, not a score; the style comes from you, never from a preset.
- Sessions and export — load a set of frames, each keeps its own crop and edits; copy a look across the set; export at full edited resolution as JPEG or PNG.
Who it's for
Street and urban photographers who shoot high volume and want each frame to be more deliberate — and want their body of work to cohere into a personal style, not a pile of frames.
