October '98 Complete Collection
October ’98 Complete Collection
A complete Lightroom editing collection inspired by late-’90s nostalgia, cinematic color, and the atmosphere of October.
Explore warm indoor light, muted autumn foliage, cool evening tones, softly faded photographs, and darker Halloween moods. October ’98 gives you a range of creative looks, along with targeted tools for shaping the light, refining portraits, and finishing your photographs.
Start with a core look, adjust its strength, and use the additional tools where your image needs them.
