App Profile: Photo Curves - Color Grading

Photo Curves is a color grading app for photos. NOTE: the app doesn't support RAW and DNG files yet.

Create custom filters instead of searching through hundreds of predefined LUTs. Photo Curves comes with example presets, which are fully editable using RGB, CMYK, LAB, HSL curves, color wheels, and other tools. Correct, enhance or replace colors, shift HUE, fix white balance or create cinematic orange and teal look, create 3D LUTs or presets library, resize images, and more.

List of tools:

- Basic controls (brightness, contrast, shadows, highlights, saturation)
- Color wheels (shadows, midtones, highlights)
- RGB curves
- CMYK curves
- Lab curves

Color grading hints:

Color wheels - adjust colors of shadows, midtones, and highlights.

RGB/CMYK curves - play with Red/Green/Blue or Cyan/Magenta/Yellow/Key color channels.

LAB curves - LAB color space gives you yet another level of creative freedom.

Hue vs Hue curve - selective hue shift; i.e. adjust the color of the blue sky or green grass to dramatically change the mood of your photos.

Hue vs Luma curve - selective brightness control of a specific color or color range.

Luma vs Saturation curve - adjust saturation of shades, midtones, or highlights.

Luma vs Hue curve - shift hue of shades, midtones, or highlights.
