A popular collection of retro actions too, well, give your images that old-school retro feel. Includes a total of 30 Photoshop retro actions to give your photos that vintage look.
The creation of these retro actions were inspired by photos dating back from 1897 through 1980. After examining and studying 100’s of prints I was able to reproduce the retro look in Photoshop. This includes, but not limited to; X-process, Technicolor, Kodak Portra, Tin Type and much more.
If you’re looking for a retro editing style that gives you a look and feel from the days of film then look no further.
Retro edits are popular among photographers, bloggers, and Instagrammers.
Now you too can have this vintage, film-look with our retro Photoshop actions.
What is retro? Well, it is said that anything older than 100 years old is an antique. Up to 100 years old is considered “retro” or vintage.
How did I create these retro Photoshop actions? First, I studied photos from the late 1800s all the way up to the 1980s.
Then, I painstakingly hand-crafted Photoshop actions to match the look of prints during the most important times of the photo industry.
Each of the retro Photoshop actions can be applied with one-click. Oh, and you can also adjust the retro edits based on your personal preference. I’ll show you how.
