Marigold is a modern homage to classic colour negative film — bold warmth, vibrant colour, and nostalgic analog tones reimagined for today's photographers. These presets enhance skin tones, amplify golden light, and add rich character to your images without feeling overprocessed. Designed for those who love warm, film-inspired colour with a contemporary edge, Marigold brings a timeless analog aesthetic to every frame.
The collection includes 6 dynamic variations, each crafted to respond uniquely to different styles and lighting conditions — from sun-drenched portraits to overcast street scenes. Whether you're after a soft glow or punchier contrast, each preset offers a distinct expression of classic film warmth. A dedicated toolset is included, featuring 4 custom film stocks and additional controls to shape every element of the emulation — tones, grain, and light response fully in your hands. In a nod to the analog era, ASA ratings are used instead of ISO, echoing vintage film terminology and reinforcing the set's nostalgic roots. (BOTH DESKTOP & MOBILE VERSIONS INCLUDED)

Marigold is built around the warmth that photographers chase — that rich, saturated golden hour quality that makes skin glow and scenes feel alive. Each preset is calibrated to amplify light without pushing into unnatural territory.
From the film stock emulations to the ASA grain tools, every element of Marigold is designed to evoke the organic depth of colour negative film. The tones breathe — lifted shadows, softened highlights, and a colour character that feels developed rather than processed.
Weddings, portraits, lifestyle — Marigold was designed to work across the full range of what photographers actually shoot. The warmth is bold but skin-safe, the contrast is rich but never harsh, and the six base presets give you room to find your own version of the look.
