This jpeg recipe is my go-to for an old-school monochrome street look. The soft midtones and deep shadows combined with some grain... it just feels right.

Kyler Steele

Nostalgic Summer is a vintage inspired recipe that focuses on vibrant greens and golden yellows while stripping away blues for a more timeless look. Ideal for capturing contrasty, sunny days by delivering a filmic look straight out of camera.

This look delivers rich contrast with cooler tones, featuring softer greens and a versatile neutral balance that works across almost any subject.

This color profile is my “Red Soda Pop”. It warms up the overall tones, makes the reds "pop" while muting yellows and greens ever so slightly. It also softens the image for a bit more dream-like feel.

Paul Clark

This color profile boosts warm and cool tones while dialing back greens and magentas, letting complementary colors stand out. With softer contrast, lifted shadows, lowered highlights, and reduced sharpness, the result feels balanced, natural, and true to the scene.

Sunset from above the beach looking down the hill to see palms trees, beach and water.
Terry McLaughlin

For this edit, I built a look that feels true to my style desaturated blues, warm mids, and those orange-red tones that really pop. It’s all balanced with a subtle filmy curve that gives it that nostalgic, cinematic finish for the golden hour.

Rainforest Vibes Recipe: This is where I captured the wild beauty of exotic plants and brought their colors to life through my lens, amplifying the saturated greens of the lush jungle canopy and intensifying the vivid magentas and warm tones of tropical blooms to recreate the untamed vibrancy of the rainforest.

Old Fashioned: This black and white recipe reflects my love of old black and white film photography.

Building with neon lights styling.

Dirty Pop: Named after a popular NSYNC song, this is a natural but punchy color with deep shadows and a gentle highlight lift. Greens and yellows get a little glow, blues run a touch darker, which keeps skies rich and skin tones clean straight out of camera.
