"I love how this set transforms my photos into vintage black and white prints in a few clicks! I really like the amount of detail included in the different presets, from scratches to burnt edges — and the best thing is the possibility of combining them to create several different looks that are naturally imperfect and very close to what old film actually looks like. The orange and blue filters add to the variety of possible outcomes and help refine the final aesthetic. I spent a long time playing with these on photos from my archive, and I was so pleased with the range of looks I was able to achieve."
"As much as I love colored photographs, there's just something about black and white that captures my heart — it has an ability to tell a story, or create an emotion, that may be lost in color. This series really helps bring that to light. I love that it has a little bit of everything, from the instant-film vintage feel to a more modern approach. The grain is perfectly added, and the frames add a touch of flare. The orange and blue filters help a lot to create the mood that fits your niche. Whether you like classic black and white photos or something with a little vintage flare and moodiness, I think you hit both nails on the head with this pack!"
