GRADE.
Eight looks · fifteen modifiers · by Max Loew
GRADE is the base edit behind all of my artwork. Eight foundations pulled from years of automotive and travel work, the grade I start from before I touch a slider, plus fifteen modifiers that push any look without breaking it.
Every look was built on real jobs: desert campaigns, foggy mornings on Skyline, golden hour on the coast. Apply one and you are standing where I start. Stack a modifier when the frame asks for more grain, more warmth, or less color, then make it yours. Drag the sliders below and judge for yourself.
Works where you edit
XMP presets for Lightroom Classic, Lightroom, and Photoshop (Camera Raw) on desktop, plus Lightroom on your phone, synced through your Adobe account or imported directly. The looks apply anywhere; a few mask-based modifiers need Lightroom's masking, which is a paid feature on mobile. Install guide included.

The looks
Before & Afters
01 · Field
The daily driver. Balanced, neutral-warm, honest color that holds up on anything I point a camera at.
02 · Gold Vintage
The film look. Real S-curve contrast, warm signature tones, honest grain.
03 · Canyon
Warm desert sandstone. Terracotta, dusty greens, Americana. For red rock, dust, and hard midday sun.
04 · Frontier
Twilight western. Teal skies, brick reds, cream light. My favorite on dry country.
05 · Atlas
The clean foundation. Deep blacks, crisp reflections, honest color with punch. For cars and big landscapes, and the easiest base in the pack to bend toward your own look.
06 · Cold Cinema
Moody automotive teal and orange. The world goes cold, the subject stays warm. For fog, night, and blue hour.
07 · Golden Hour
Soft, airy, washed gold. The warmth of late light without the muddy orange cast. My go-to for backlit lifestyle and portraits.
08 · Noir
Matte faded-film black and white. Luminous skin, dark skies, timeless.
The modifiers
Every look,
