F-Series Modern Classic | The Analog Film Presets for Lightroom & Mobile

$19.95 $29.95

Desaturated, understated, and timelessly faded.

The F-Series is the undisputed king of the minimalist aesthetic. While other series focus on punchy colors or deep warmth, the F-Series is all about Mellow & Faded tones. It is designed for the photographer who wants to strip away digital noise and replace it with a muted, matte, and effortlessly cool vibe. If you want your images to look like a quiet, forgotten film still from the late 70s, this is your archive.

Presets Explained

  • F1 | Kodak Portra - The Neutral Mellow: The most versatile preset in the archive. F1 provides a clean, desaturated look with a subtle matte lift. It pulls back vibrant tones just enough to create a cohesive, "un-edited" feel while maintaining natural clarity.

  • F2 | Kodak Ektar - The Warm Mellow: This preset introduces a soft, golden-ivory undertone to the highlights. It is designed for sun-drenched lifestyle shots, giving the "faded" look a cozy, nostalgic glow without over-saturating the oranges.

  • F3 | Fuji Pro 400 - The Moody Mellow: The deepest of the three. F3 leans into a cooler, slate-grey shadow profile. It is the most atmospheric choice, perfect for rainy days or urban street scenes where you want a "heavy" but still beautifully washed-out aesthetic.

    • The "Mellow" Touch The F-Series excels at calming down loud, distracting colors, pulling the entire frame into a cohesive and muted color story.

    • Velvet Matte Fade It replaces harsh, inky blacks with a sophisticated charcoal haze, giving your photos an instant "editorial" weight without looking over-edited.

    • Pastel Skin Tones It creates a soft, porcelain-like quality on skin, evening out tones and removing the "digital orange" look for a more natural, raw appearance.

    • Understated Elegance This series is the definition of "less is more." It provides a consistent, quiet look that works across street, lifestyle, and indoor photography.

    • 1x F1 - F3 Mellow Matte Presets for Lightroom MOBILE (DNG files for iOS & Android).

      • 1x F1 - F3 Mellow Matte Presets for Lightroom DESKTOP (XMP files for Mac & Windows).

      • Easy Step-by-Step Installation Guide.

  • The F-Series captures the soul of low-contrast film stocks printed on matte, non-reflective paper. It is inspired by the "underexposed and over-scanned" look often found in vintage lifestyle journals. By emulating the washed-out blacks and pastel-leaning color science of aged chemical prints, the F-Series ensures your work feels tactile and authentic. It transforms clinical, high-resolution digital files into something that feels soft, breathable, and deeply nostalgic.

    • The Foundation: The F-Series works best with natural light and neutral environments. It thrives on flat lighting (overcast days or soft indoor light).

      • Apply your F-Preset: Watch as the contrast drops and the colors recede into a beautiful, faded palette.

      • Exposure Recovery: Because these presets are "mellow," you might need to increase your Exposure slightly to keep the image from looking too "muddy."

      • Temperature Check: If the image feels too "flat," add a touch of Warmth (Yellow) to bring back life, or stay on the Cool (Blue) side for a moodier, melancholic vibe.

      • The Final Touch: Use the Fine Grain to emphasize that printed-on-paper texture.
