Numerous popular products over the years have included tools like Vintagio and FX Photo Studio for iOS as well as Windows/MacOS apps like Photolemur, Aurora HDR, and the Luminar series. Founded in 2008 as an iPhone software developing company by two Ukrainian programmers with a love of photography, MacPhun changed its name to Skylum in early 2018, helping to reinforce its transition to become a platform-agnostic brand. If you’re not familiar with Skylum, you may already know the company by its previous name, MacPhun. But despite the chaos of a foreign invasion, Skylum’s staff are striving to retain some sense of normalcy-just last week they shipped a fairly substantial update to the brand’s flagship image editing platform, Luminar Neo, adding new features and fixing bugs. And with their country at war, times have been understandably tough.

Although the software company Skylum has a US headquarters in Bellevue, Washington, these days, most of the company’s employees are based out of a development center in embattled Kyiv, Ukraine.
