Anonymous asked: Your work is beautiful! I was wondering how you achieve that kind of 'soft glow' effect. Basically your tones are just amazing :) - what types of edits do you make to get your colors?
This is kind of hard to explain in text, but I’ll try. I always use curves in photoshop. I posted a little about how I do RGB curves most of the time here:

After that I usually switch from RGB curves to Reds, and often make the darks (lower point) more red and move the curve around until I like it. And same with the Blue curves. If I move the darks one way (like more blue) I move the lights to be more yellow.
Sorry if I explained that badly haha
