Retro Faded Photo Effect

The effect's washed-out contrast, muted blacks, soft grain, and subtle tinting recreate the atmosphere of film left too long in a drawer or a print scanned from a 70s family album. It is delivered as two high-resolution PSDs (portrait & landscape formats) with a Smart Object layer.

Use the effect to stylize portraits, give brand visuals a vintage tone, or build layered compositions for zines, lookbooks, and social campaigns. It's effective for music artwork, mood-driven fashion editorials, and retro product showcases.

This resource is created, and fully compatible with Adobe Photoshop. For the best experience, we recommend to use the latest Creative Cloud version of the app.
