Our Review
Cinelux Preset (Mike Dewey) — a cinematic grade for travel photos, straight out of your camera roll
The gist: A $10 Lightroom preset that gives travel photos a moody, film-like look with green-shifted tones and grain — a fast way to make trip photos feel like stills from a movie.
- Cinematic color: shifts images toward green-tinted tones with cool highlights, echoing the look of iconic film stills rather than a flat digital snapshot.
- Soft, silky shadows: enhances shadow detail for a moody feel that works well for evening streets, misty mornings, or dim interiors on the road.
- Grain included: adds a light film-grain texture, per the product description, for an analog feel without shooting actual film.
- Digital, install-once: works with Lightroom and Lightroom Mobile, so it travels light — no gear to pack, just a preset file.
Moment's own product page describes Cinelux as "the photo preset for the filmmaker," made by in-house filmmaker Mike Dewey, a California-based travel enthusiast — giving your trip photos "the grain, soft silky shadows, and tones" of a cinematic still.
Best for: traveling photographers who want a consistent, moody cinematic look across a trip's photo set. Skip it if: you shoot bright, high-key travel content — the green shift and grain will fight that look. Runs ~$10 — check the current price before buying.
