You spend hours editing, but the colors still don’t look right.
You tweak sliders randomly, hoping something will finally “click.”
You know color is powerful—but you don’t know how to use it intentionally.
Your photos feel flat, inconsistent, or just don’t match the mood you imagined.
I get it—because I’ve been there.
When I first started, color grading felt like a guessing game.
But after years of practice, testing, and refining, I’ve developed a simple framework for editing with clarity and purpose.
