Sepia Toning

Achieve a warm sepia look. In one sense, color photography predated black-and-white photography by a number of years. Early photographic processes like the daguerreotype all had sepia or bluish tinges to them. It took a while before truly color-neutral black-and-white photography became possible. We still equate sepia toning with old-timey photography. Who hasn’t donned Civil War attire to pose for a family portrait reproduced in rich browns and light tans? While in modern times it’s been necessary to use special toning solutions in the darkroom to achieve a warm sepia look, Photoshop can do the same thing with very little trouble. Just follow these steps.
