Guide the eye like a film frame.
The Workflow
- Crop to a clean aspect ratio (16:9, 2.39:1, 4:5).
- Add a soft vignette on a new layer (large soft brush).
- Set to Multiply/Soft Light and keep it subtle.
- Use Curves to lift subject, drop corners slightly.
The Usage
Small framing choices massively improve readability and “pro polish”.
