Add a cohesive look to your blogging photos with these 3 Red Velvet presets for desktop and mobile. We love the added mix of greys and beige tones to the non-red colors, while the reds themselves are enhanced with some added vibrancy. These presets are perfect for vacation photos, fashion shots, or any day-to-day shots where you want to accentuate your reds!
Red Presets for Mobile & Desktop
Add a moody aesthetic to your photos featuring red outfits, decor, or environments with these 15 presets for desktop and mobile. The trick is to create a stark contrast between the reds and the rest of the colors in your photos. Anything that isn’t red is treated with some desaturation and hints of blues, while shadows are faded. The result is a lovely mix of greys and reds!
Infrared Red Presets
Put the ‘red’ in infrared with these unique infrared-style presets! Designed to enhance the reds in your photos and make that color the focus, these presets are inspired by infrared film stocks like Kodak Aerochrome. The color grading creates the look of infrared sensitivity where only certain tones come out saturated while the rest are desaturated – in this case, that’s the reds of the photo!
