Frequently Asked Questions

How do I increase image contrast?
Upload your image and move the contrast slider to the right (positive values). This makes light areas lighter and dark areas darker, increasing the visual difference between tones.
What does contrast do to an image?
Contrast controls the difference between the lightest and darkest tones. Higher contrast creates more visual punch and definition. Lower contrast creates a softer, more muted look.
Should I adjust contrast before or after other edits?
Adjust contrast after brightness/exposure corrections but before color adjustments. This order gives you the most natural-looking results.
