The newest versions of the Photos app for Mac include a convenient feature that enables users to copy and paste edits made to photos or videos.
This functionality is beneficial because it allows you to quickly apply consistent changes across multiple images. For instance, if you've spent time crafting the ideal black and white photo with optimal contrast, you can effortlessly replicate those settings on other pictures using simple copy and paste commands.
Let's walk through how to copy image adjustments, and subsequently apply these modifications to other images (or videos) within the Photos app on your Mac.
To utilize this feature, ensure you're running the Photos app in macOS Ventura 13 or later; older versions don't support copying and pasting photo edits.
Steps to Copy & Paste Edits in the Photos App for Mac
Launch the Photos app on your Mac if it isn't already open
Select the first photo you wish to modify and make your desired edits by tapping the “Edit” button and adjusting settings as preferred
Once happy with the changes, navigate to the “Image” menu and select “Copy Edits”
Next, choose another photo where you'd like to apply the same edits, then go back to the “Image” menu and click on “Paste Edits”
Continue applying the edits to more images if needed by repeating the paste process
That's all there is to copying and pasting photo edits using the Mac Photos app.
Additionally, you can apply these edits to several photos at once by selecting multiple images in the Photos app, right-clicking them, and then choosing “Paste Edits”. This method makes it easy to batch convert images into black and white, enhance contrast or saturation levels, or apply any custom edits you've created.
iOS and iPadOS 16 or newer also offer a comparable feature for iPhones and iPads, although detailed instructions for that will be discussed in another guide.
