I especially like the Platinum look. It's so great, I converted the results of the action into a LUT. What's missing? A nice sepia tone.

Platinum, Ferroblend, Collodion, and more

The amazing new FerroBlend and more. You get perfect chemical-like edits in Photoshop CS6 - CC. Try the before-and-after samples and see what you'll create.

     

Introducing FerroBlend

Have you heard of this? It's one of the biggest things to happen to the darkroom in decades; the recent creation of the FerroBlend process by Raghavendra Udupa represents an almost color-like mix of Cyanotype and copper-tone chemical processing that can create a wide range of tonality. 

In emulsion 5, put great care into not only creating a tool to get the perfect FerroChrome look, but also the tools and layers to re-mix and create your blend of it. It's a truly amazing process, and it's amazing in Emulsion. Try it and see.

It's new in Emulsion v5

  • NEW: FerroBlend process based on the popular duo-tone method with finite control.
  • NEW: Remastered emulsions including Platinum, Cyanotype, Wet Plate, and Selenium.
  • NEW: Improved tonality using zones for better chemical toning in every process.
  • NEW: Better mixers like paper contrast and gold chloride for variables like the darkroom.
  • NEW: Better Re-Mix. Variants let you switch between chemical mixes and create new blends.
  • Instant mods let you adjust as fast as your chemical look adapts on the fly.
  • Works in Photoshop CS6 - CC

Easy to use, infinite chemical-inspired mixes.

I took this photo and did 8 different chemical edits in a couple of minutes. Every emulsion and tone you apply in Emulsion has an out-of-the-box look. Then you can instantly adjust tint intensity with the intelligent master ratio layer. Or mix it with gold, tone mods, and other instant. Or do a re-mix with 1-click. Or add paper and texture that uses select seamless variants from Naked Darkroom.

In version 5, everything is simple - Run the master action and get the Classic Platinum look. Switch it to any of the other tones, or you can mix them up to create a more complex atmosphere. Don't like what you see? With a click, you can reset and keep playing.  Emulsion lets you tone and mix without limits as if you have the actual chemicals in your own darkroom.

   

Edit with Life-Like Digital Emulsion.

It all started when I discovered Platinum Prints and said... "I'm going to make that for digital." -- The deep 3-dimensional richness of Platinum and other early-era toning is not easy. Emulsion 5 uses the power of zones and gradient mapping. Expanding on tools Gavin created for the BlackRoom monochrome system. 

Emulsion creates depth and tones that adjust in real-time based on tone values. You have all the control, but everything is ready.

Change how you see your work.

Digital chemical processing lets you try things you never would otherwise. Things that took years of testing and trying to find within Photoshop but now are a click away.

In a sometimes sterile digital world, you will be spruwiaszed how quickly you find beauty in edits you never thought were possible and that Emulsion makes possible. 

You'll find yourself amazed by the beauty in photos you thought were rejects all because of seeing them in a new, darkroom-inspired light.

Who is Gavin Seim.

Gavin is a PPA Master Photographer (M.Photog) born in Seattle, Washington, USA. He began his studies in 1997 at age 12 and started creating the original Lightroom presets and master photo tools in 2006. His award-winning photos, workshops, and tools have been published worldwide as he seeks to simplify techniques for tone, color, and feeling in the photograph. 


In 2022, Gavin created the Shadow Method. Looking for a better way to teach, he flipped the script on how photography has been taught for over 150 years. In 2026, he released the Shadow Master Class after years of testing and teaching the method live to photographers around the globe. 


Gavin knows people are rightly skeptical of tools and courses in today's internet market. So to ensure every product he creates for photographers is backed by service and confidence, he began to offer his 31-day No-Regrets Guarantee! Rare in an industry of digital photo products usually backed by nothing.
 

Gavin started working professionally at age 16. It was not easy to find training then. But 25 years in the trenches taught him that a Master's is just the start. A well-known investigative journalist, he sought a quieter place and in 2017, moved to Mexico, exploring the magical light and culture of the South as he continues creating tools and workshops, hosting the Pro Photo Podcast, and working on portrait, fashion, and cultural projects.
