About this effect

Vintage combines warmth, fade, and subtle texture to create a softer nostalgic photo finish. It is more layered than sepia because it changes not only color but also the overall feel of the image.

Use this when you want an old-photo mood without piecing together multiple separate effects. Compared with Retro, Vintage usually feels softer, calmer, and more analog.
