A modern homage to the vibrant soul of Kodak Gold, Marigold blends classic warmth with contemporary depth—bringing together bold color, brilliant warmth, and a timeless palette reimagined for modern photographers. These presets enhance skin tones, amplify golden light, and add vibrant character to your images without feeling overprocessed. Designed for those who love rich color and a sense of nostalgia, Marigold offers a fresh take on classic film tones—elevated for today’s aesthetic.

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 soft glow or punchier contrast, each preset offers a distinct expression of the Kodak Gold look. A dedicated toolset is included, featuring 4 custom film stocks and additional controls to modify every element of the film emulation—allowing full customization of tones, grain, and light response. 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)
