About this tool

Add a soft, hazy glow that flatters portraits, weddings and nature photos. A blurred, brightened copy is blended over the photo, so highlights bloom and skin looks smooth while the details underneath stay visible.

Start from a style such as soft focus, haze, pastel or golden, then adjust the glow, softness, haze, warmth and saturation to taste.

Questions and answers

What is the Orton effect?

It is a classic technique of layering a sharp and a blurred, overexposed copy of a photo. This tool uses the same idea to create its dreamy glow.

How do I keep it subtle?

Choose the soft focus style or lower the glow to around 30. Less haze keeps the contrast closer to the original.
