FEATURED REVIEWS

“I love the Chroma set. It perfectly fits my needs for a clean and colourful edit without being too much. I shoot a lot of portraits, especially in the studio, and I wanted a set of presets with vibrant and clean colours. My favourite is Chroma 05 because it does bring a pop of colour to my photos while being realistic.”
“Okay if I could rate this higher I would. I may be biased here because I've been trying to find the best vibrant but true-to-color set for me and this one just might be it! So happy New Year to me. The versatility of each mask for different situations with the addition of the toolset is a slam dunk. “
“I love the versatility and control these presets and the tools offer. It's fabulous to be able to dial in exactly which colours to highlight and bring to the fore with one click, without having to resort to endless tweaks on the colour sliders.”
