By candlelight a phone makes the frame yellow-grey: blurry lights, dark faces, a dirty white dress. SOIREE builds the celebration: amber candles, golden string lights, glowing champagne, creamy whites, deep shadows and light, living skin.

What the main version does. The balance is warmer, midtones and highlights toned gold, shadows deep blue. Yellow moves toward orange, so lights turn amber. Skin orange is lighter and calmer, faces never go ginger. Blue is darker, so the night gets deeper. Contrast is higher, light grain.

Soft does the same at 60 %. Use it on frames with lots of candles, where the light is already warm.

Color and tone live in a profile inside the preset, so the light and color sliders stay at zero after you apply it, and the Amount slider sets the strength. You can still adjust exposure as usual without breaking the look.

It works best on wedding receptions and banquets, engagements and proposals, candlelit dinners, parties with string lights, rooftop evenings. For a wedding in daylight, VOWS fits better.

The archive has 8 files: two .xmp presets, two .dng files for the free Lightroom mobile app, two .cube LUTs for video and Photoshop, and an install guide in English and Russian. The LUT carries color only: no grain, texture or vignette.

The example photos on this page were created by AI: ordinary shots that look straight from a phone, no editing. The “after” is this preset alone, main version, no retouching.
