Color Profiles (New)

Release Date: April 20, 2026

Color Profiles define the base look of your photos.
They go beyond standard styles by controlling how tones, contrast, and colors behave across the image.

Where to use them:

  • In the Still Photo Editor (per photo or project)

  • In Presets (apply across all future projects)

Available Color Profiles

Eclipse

  • Lower exposure with controlled highlights

  • Deeper shadows and stronger contrast

  • Reduced saturation and vibrance
    → Ideal for a moody, muted look

Gentle

  • Slightly lower exposure with balanced highlights

  • Defined contrast with natural tonal balance
    → Ideal for soft, realistic results

Amber

  • Warmer overall tone

  • Stronger contrast with deeper shadows

  • Slightly reduced saturation for a refined finish
    → Ideal for cozy, inviting visuals


Available styles

Colour boost; Balanced brightness; Gentle warmth; Muted colours; Cool & bright; Delicate cool; Crisp or adjust sliders to set your own preferences.

When choosing different styles, sliders values will change accordingly.

If you have chosen a style and then change values in one of the sliders, in the dropdown menu the style will change to “Custom” (this appears only when you change values and is not an option you can choose)


Custom styles

You can create and add new styles in both the Editor and Presets, and once added, the styles will be available for all projects.

To add a custom style:

  1. Adjust the sliders according to your preference

  2. Click the “Add as a new style” button

  3. Name your custom style

  4. Click “Save“.

Your newly created style will now be available in the dropdown menu list.

Note: If the sliders are set to the same values as an existing style, you won't be able to create a new one.


Sliders

What does each slider do?

  1. Exposure:

    Controls the overall brightness. Increase for a brighter image and decrease for a darker one.

  2. Saturation:

    Controls the intensity of colours. Increase for richer colours, decrease for paler ones.

  3. Vibrance:

    Enhances colour intensity without over-saturating

  4. Temperature:

    Adjusts the warmth or coolness of colours. Increase for a warmer look, and decrease for a cooler look.

  5. Contrast:

    Controls the difference between the lightest and darkest parts of the image.

    More contrast makes the photos pop, less contrast makes them blend.

  6. Highlights:

    Manages the brightness of lighter areas. Move left to reveal details in bright areas and right to darken them.

  7. Shadows:

    Manages the brightness of darker areas. Move right to reveal details in dark areas and left to darken them.

  8. Sharpen:

    Determines the image's crispness, revealing small details and contrasts.

    In a photo with sufficient sharpness, you'll be able to see even the smallest details as well as any micro-contrasts.
