FEATURED REVIEWS

“I recently bought the Veritas preset and I’m in love. It makes my editing process so easy with just a few clicks. The beautiful tones and the filters give it the nostalgic feel to my photos. It just speaks to me. So yes! I definitely recommend!”
“I love the softness of each of the 5 colour presets, it just adds that gentle touch while keeping the original images integrity. I think the black and white preset is so pretty, I think it may become my go to.”
“That Black & White mask is just so crisp and saturated-LOVE IT. I also really like the variability in the other masks-all while keeping similar color tones. The Cinematic is so much fun to play with-and the polarizing and diffusion filters are perfection.”
