For more than a decade, we’ve brought photographers hundreds of innovative features in Lightroom and Photoshop without changing the price of our photography plans. Today we’re announcing an update to these plans to better reflect the value that the apps deliver. These plan updates come into effect for new subscribers on January 15, 2025, and will become effective for existing members only when your plan next renews.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

Photography Plan (20GB) — The pre-paid annual plan remains unchanged at $119.88\/year (equivalent to $9.99\/month). Monthly billing remains an option for existing members with an updated price of $14.99\/month, with an annual commitment, effective at your next renewal. Existing members who pay monthly can switch to the pre-paid annual plan to maintain the $9.99\/month price. We will continue to support this plan for existing customers, however this plan will no longer be available to new customers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lightroom (1TB) — The pre-paid annual plan remains unchanged at $119.88\/year (equivalent to $9.99\/month). Additionally, this plan is expanding to now include Lightroom Classic. The monthly plan is updating to $11.99\/month, with an annual commitment, effective at your next renewal. Existing members who pay monthly can switch to the pre-paid annual plan to maintain the $9.99\/month price.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Emphasis added. So there are a few weeks left if you want to sign up for the plan with both Lightroom and Photoshop.<\/p>\n

Adobe<\/a>:<\/p>\n

If your Photography plan (20GB) is currently on an annual plan, paid monthly, you can switch your billing to annual plan, prepaid, by visiting your Adobe Account page<\/a> and following these steps: Select the Manage Plan button, then the Update Subscription button.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That’s the plan I’m on, but there’s no Update Subscription<\/strong> button. I chatted with Adobe’s AI assistant, and then with a person who initially told me that I had to cancel my current plan and that the price would<\/em> change. After 24 minutes, and re-entering my credit card information even though it was already current, I think they switched me over.<\/p>\n\n
