Meet Pastel Matte
Choose a starting point, then make it your own.
It adds vibrance and haze to your sunset sessions and shadow and depth for cloudy evening light. For specific use with Photoshop CC, the Pastel Matte Collection is the right choice for the photographer who wants vibrant velvety soft tones in their images. Like Harvest Matte and Spring Gem, this specific set adds brightness without compromising shadows. These are the actions that Twig & Olive use most in the summer to boost tonality for sessions. As with all of our actions, these work best on images taken in open shade or during golden hour.

Pastel Matte adds the finishing look in Photoshop CC on desktop. Here’s what to have ready.
Photoshop CC on desktop
Pastel Matte uses the Camera Raw Filter in Photoshop CC. You’ll need your own copy of Photoshop and any Adobe plan it requires.
A working copy
Start with RAW for the most room to adjust exposure and white balance before opening the photograph in Photoshop. JPEG and HEIC photographs can still be edited, but detail that is already lost cannot be recovered. If a RAW file won’t open, check that your Camera Raw version supports your camera in Adobe’s camera support list. Keep your layered master and run the action on a flattened working copy.
Layer Opacity and masks
The layer controls let you keep as much of the look as you want. Lower Opacity for a softer effect, or use a layer mask to pull it back in parts of the photograph.
Choose the right product
This ATN set is not for Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom mobile, Photoshop Elements or Photoshop CS2–CS6.
Your starting image
The same look can feel different in soft shade and bright sun. Your light and starting edit are part of the result, so leave room to adjust it for your photograph.
Personal and commercial use
One license covers the person or business named on the order, including client photographs. Keep the action files within that licensed person or business.
Make the finish your own.
01
Prepare a working copy
Correct Exposure and white balance first. Save or duplicate your layered master, then flatten the working copy.
02
Play one action
In Photoshop desktop, open Window > Actions, select a named Pastel Matte action and choose Play. Keep the recorded steps enabled.
03
Adjust the finish
Click the layer’s eye icon to compare. Lower Opacity to soften the look, or add a layer mask to pull it back in places. Save a layered file so you can adjust it later.
