About Photo Filters
Photo filters transform the mood and aesthetic of an image through adjustments to color, contrast, saturation, and hue. Modern CSS filter functions — the same technology used by browsers to render visual effects — enable real-time, high-quality filter application entirely in your browser.
Each filter in PhotoRule is a carefully tuned combination of these properties. Cinematic reduces saturation and boosts contrast for a film-like look. Vintage adds sepia warmth. Arctic shifts hues toward cool blue-greens for an icy aesthetic. Preview any filter by clicking it before downloading.
Frequently Asked Questions

What filters are available?
PhotoRule has 11 filters: Vivid (saturated colors), Cool (blue-toned), Warm (golden hour), Vintage (sepia film), Fade (lifted shadows), Cinematic (film-like), Dramatic (high contrast), Matte (soft), Golden (warm luxury), Arctic (icy blue), and Sunset.
Can I preview filters before applying?
Yes — click any filter thumbnail to see a live preview on your photo. The side-by-side view shows original vs. filtered. Switch between filters freely before committing to Apply.
Are these similar to VSCO or Instagram filters?
Yes. The effect styles (Vivid, Fade, Cinematic, Vintage) are directly inspired by popular VSCO and Instagram presets. They use the same underlying CSS filter properties — saturation, hue-rotation, contrast, brightness, and sepia.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. All filter processing happens locally in your browser using the HTML Canvas API. Your photo is never sent anywhere.
