There are quite a few options in the Layer Style menu to play with, but I kept it simple and just added Noise ( 24%) and increased the Opacity ( 80%) of the default settings. Make sure you have the layer you added noise to selected and go to Layer > Layer Style > Inner Glow.

Step 5: Fade the Edges with an Inner Glow Layer StyleĪged photographs never fade uniformly, so add a bit more authenticity to your piece with a Layer Style. Higher percentages of noise can heavily distort the image. In the Add Noise menu, you can adjust the amount of noise, its distribution, and color.įor my example, I don’t want the noise to overpower my photo, so I’m setting the Amount to 21%, selecting Gaussian Distribution, and checking the Monochromatic box. It’s a best practice to always preserve your original image and not make permanent changes to it so you can revert back, if needed. In the Layers Panel, right-click on the Background Layer and select Duplicate Layer. Now that we’re done with Adjustment Layers, let’s add some noise to simulate the appearance of an old, grainy photo. Note that the colors are a bit more saturated now. I’ve lost some pizzazz by adjusting the Exposure, so I’m boosting the colors with a Vibrance Adjustment Layer. The lower the Density, the weaker the Photo Filter. Play with different combinations of filters to see what suits your photo best. Many film photos naturally tint yellow or green with age, but a variety of colors are possible depending on the chemical reactions happening over time. You’ll see a soft green tint to the photo now that we’ve neutralized some of the warmer tones. This time, I’m selecting Green in the Filter drop-down menu and adjusting the Density slider to 15% for a more subtle look. Repeat the steps above to make one more Photo Filter Adjustment Layer. Don’t be afraid to make your own choices as you’re following these steps. The exact filters you choose and the density levels you use will be different from photo to photo. In my example, I’ve chosen Sepia in the Filter drop-down menu and adjusted the Density slider to 60%. You’ll notice the options in the Properties Panel are different for this type of Adjustment Layer. New Adjustment Layers will stack on top of each other, as seen here in the Layers Panel. Go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Photo Filter and click OK on the following pop-up, just like last time. One of the best ways to do that is with Photo Filters.

To simulate the color shifts that happen in old film photography, you’ll want to shift the colors in your photo. Step 2: Create a New Adjustment Layer Using Photo Filter
