Starting up a new design business and going on my own. This would be an absolute needed miracle.
I’m currently working as a part-time intern. This would help so much with improving my skills and resume as I seek full-time employment.
Having access to the new Creative Cloud release and being able to move into creative photography work would be amazing!
Enimmäkseen valokuvaukseen mutta myös suunnitteluun ja julkaisuun
I would continue to use the apps I love to use!
With the new 2025 Creative Cloud release, I will be able to take my photographs to the next level with improved editing capabilities. The product is top of the range and it would be a dream come true if I can win a membership subscription. Financial restrictions prevents me from bring able to enjoy the programs and my old CS5 is no longer capable of bringing out the best for me. Not able to shoot in RAW due to inability to open files in old versions.
Hi Annelize,
If you’re trying to use a newer camera with older (discontinued) editing software that doesn’t support it, then the solution that Adobe offers in these cases is to use the DNG Converter utility. This will provide ongoing camera compatibility for previous/legacy versions of all Photoshop and Lightroom products.
So you could use the free Adobe DNG Converter Tool for support of any recent camera in older programs like yours, and it should support almost any camera you can throw at it. You will need to use this to convert your raw files to DNG, and then Lightroom or Photoshop can then import those DNG files instead.
Alternatively, if you get the current/latest versions of Photoshop and Lightroom instead (with the $9.99 Creative Cloud Photography plan), then that new camera support will automatically be integrated right inside the programs themselves and you don’t have to do anything extra.
As an independent portrait photographer, the economy has taken a toll on my capacity to earn a living wage, which is why I’m entering this wonderful contest, in the hope of having access to Adobe’s amazing suite of applications.
I currently am a designer on the side and would like to go full-time and this would help me IMMENSELY. I’m already low income and have been unable to afford the latest CC since 2020.
Thank you for providing all of the information that you do. It is absolutely priceless!!
You bet, D – thank you for your kind words!
If I were to win, I would create the book covers with Photoshop for the series I am currently finishing up , then create the digital and paperback editions with InDesign, and finish off by creating the audiobooks to go with the books in Audition.
Then finally, create the marketing materials with a mix of the other apps. Have not been able to afford full CC for a while, and would love to have it again to have all of the tools available.
If I win, I will increase my skills and develop new ones to help with my business.
I plan to learn the programs through tutorials and hopefully design and edit with the programs especially in photography. I’m interested in making some graphic designs as well.
I have just completed my Diploma in Photography and Digital Imaging and will use my Creative Cloud subscription to help me secure work in the creative industries
I’d be able to create amazing stuff with the entire Adobe suite.
I want to use Creative Cloud 2025 to help discover a bit of visual beauty more from the world, and help appreciate it.
I plan to do amazing things with this giveaway. My creations are limitless.
I plan to take over the world, and will need powerful visual tools to create my propaganda machine.
Full creativity!!
I am a graphic designer and I imagine that I will be delighted with the new software!!
Thanks for your comment – but please be sure to post back and leave your email address next time so we can enter you into the giveaway!
If I won, I would renew my love of design and teach others.
I am an aspiring film producer. If I get the industry suite of standard Adobe creative software, I will trace my journey to offer the world useful content through engaging audio-visual media.
I have started my own freelance business and it will help hugely with startup costs – I love using the Adobe suite!
Having Adobe CC for free for a year would be lovely! (as I just had to cancel my subscription due to a tight budget & am hoping Procreate & Adobe Express will be enough to create what I envision.)
Graphic design
Nice
Looking forward to use the free 2025 version with all its generative AI capabilities!!
I love Adobe apps and I’ve been trying to work as freelance graphic designer and content creator for more than a few years now. Having whole year of subscription for free would give a great push for me to achieve my dream.
