What does the Vignette effect change?

Vignette adds a specific analog capture or lab artifact with scale-aware placement, giving clean digital files a tactile imperfection without hiding the whole image. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Vignette?

Choose Vignette for portrait sessions that need an analog mood, album covers and editorial stories, or social series that need consistent camera character when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains technical records, already damaged scans, or tiny compressed files where added grain and optical texture can hide essential detail.

About the Vignette effect

Vignette models capture response, optical falloff, color bias, and medium-specific texture as separate stages. Its intensity control blends the processed output with the uploaded pixels, so the edit can remain restrained or become the dominant look.
