Styles Installation for Capture One 10 or older. There are two ways to install styles in Capture One version 10 or older. Import styles – the easiest and fastest method, but you would not be able to use a sub-folder structure for styles. Capture One comes with a number of built-in high-quality Styles that can be used to optimize your workflow and save time when you need to modify an image or apply a certain effect to images. Styles are the combined settings from multiple tools that are applied to images in a single step. Similar to Presets (the saved settings from individual.

Among its many strengths, the way in which Capture One handles both third-party and user created styles is particularly nice thanks to its support of styles as layers. While other raw processors like Lightroom apply the settings of a style or preset to the image as a whole, Capture One allows you to apply a style directly to a new layer. This has the benefit of layering a style on top of any other changes you may have on your background layer as opposed to overwriting them, along with the ability to scale back the intensity of that style through the use of layer opacity. While this has tremendous benefits during its use, creating and managing styles is not necessarily as intuitive and simple as it may seem.

After purchasing and downloading Styles from the Capture One store, go to Adjustments - Styles - Import Styles and select Styles or a Style Pack from your downloads folder or another destination. NOTE: Capture One Styles are only supported with Capture One 10.1.2 and newer versions of the software. CaptureGenesis provides Capture One Pro styles and training for professional photographers using the Capture One Pro software and want the best image quality available with an improved, productive workflow.

During the creation of your own styles, there are a number of things to consider such as:

Styles
  • What tools are well suited to styles?
  • Which ones should be avoided?
  • How do you create generic styles that will work across a variety of images?
  • How can I group and distribute styles?

These are important questions since you always need to keep in mind that your style must be relevant beyond just one or a few images. You have to consider how you or someone else will use these styles in the future and whether you are providing enough flexibility to make the style relevant, but also not so subtle that it won't have its own character.

Another non-intuitive aspect is how to group your styles together and manage them as your list size grows. There are no tools built directly into Capture One to rename and move styles around so you'll need to learn how to do this via the file system.

All these topics are covered in my in-depth tutorial on Capture One styles found below.

Whether you purchase third party styles such as the ones sold in our store, or create your own, understanding their nuances is critical to getting the most out of them and retaining a look that is still distinctly yours.

Portrait Styles is a set of 50 color styles developed specifically for portrait editing in Capture One.

This set provides you with 50 unique portrait looks which you can quickly and easily apply to your images.

Portrait Styles key features:

Designed for Portraits
The styles are adjusted for portrait photography specifics.

Full Layers Support
All the new styles work in layers. You can change style opacity or apply a style locally.

Freedom of Editing
Portrait Styles use only three essential tools: Curves, Advanced Color Editor and Color Balance. This gives you the freedom to choose any other tools to help you develop your image further in Capture One.

Now, let’s see how Portrait Styles can improve your workflow.

1Styles.pro Styles are fully compatible with the new Capture One Pro 21, Capture One Pro 21 Sony, Nikon and Fujifilm versions.

Each of our color styles has a Style Brush version. Thus, you can quickly draw with styles, no need to create a layer and apply a style to it manually.

What is a Style Brush?
Style Brushes is a new feature introduced in Capture One 21 (the 14.1 update). Here is a short video of how to use Style Brushes in practice:

Try 17 styles and 11 style brushes free of charge!

The Sample Styles Set includes styles and style brushes from:

  • Original Film Styles Set
  • Extended Film Styles Set
  • Portrait Styles Set

Portraits are extremely sensitive to editing. Each image adjustment immediately reflects on the skin tone.
Portrait Styles provide you with a variety of color correction solutions which were tested and approved on hundreds of different portraits.

To illustrate how Portrait Styles work, we prepared a video comparison of all the styles applied to six completely different images:

All styles in the Portrait Set support layers in Capture One Pro 11 or newer version. Using styles in layers gives you a significant advantage in the editing.

First of all, you will have full control over style opacity.
You can easily reduce style’s effect by applying it to a new filled layer and changing its opacity.

Just click the right mouse button on the style and choose “Apply to New Layer”. Now you have a new layer with applied style.

Using this feature, you can find a look that suits perfectly each particular portrait.

Also, you can apply styles locally: just draw a mask, right click on a style and choose “Apply to Selected Layer”.
For example, create a mask from skin color and apply a style to this area only:

Or you can invert the mask and apply the style to everything except the skin!

Our strong belief is that styles should not obstruct your creativity.
That’s why Portrait Styles use only three essential tools: Curves, Advanced Color Editor and Color Balance.
As a style is applied, you’re free to edit your image with Contrast, Clarity, HDR, White Balance, Levels, and any other tools.

For instance, here we applied the Sunshine Gold style and accompanied the editing with Clarity, White Balance and HDR adjustments:

All the color styles work with layers in Capture One Pro 11. Each B&W style has four versions with different opacities: 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25%.

The styles are designed to work with portraits, but as we tested the set we noticed, that some styles perfectly fit images of other genres as well.
Feel free to experiment and try Portraits Styles with wedding, travel and street photography images.
Here are some examples of how the styles work with non-portrait images.

To get the best user experience of Portrait Styles, we suggest you follow our simple recommendations:

1. Apply the styles to an image with correct Exposure and White Balance settings.
Keep in mind, that Exposure and White Balance corrections might significantly modify the image and hence affect a style look.

2. Reduce a style effect by applying it to a layer and changing the opacity.
The styles are developed to provide a noticeable difference in a look of your portraits. For some portraits, you might need just a slight adjustment and changing the opacity works perfectly for this.

3. Accompany styles with additional edits of your favorite tools.
Portrait Styles is a great tool to quickly find an impressive color correction solution. However, some of the images require supplementary adjustments of Clarity, HDR or other tools to get the final look. Feel free to mix your favorite tools with Portrait Styles.

Portrait Styles are fully compatible with Capture One Pro 11, 12, 20, Capture One Pro Sony 11, 12, 20 and Capture One Pro Fujifilm 11, 12, 20.

Portrait Styles work well with Capture One Pro 9 and 10, except for layer support. This feature was introduced in Capture One 11 and you need to upgrade Capture One to use Portrait Styles in layers.

Capture One Pro 8 is not officially supported. However, styles will work with the eight version. But you might have a slightly different style effect due to Capture One 8 engine specifics.

Portrait Styles are compatible with Capture One Express Sony 11, 12, 20 and Capture One Express Fujifilm 11, 12, 20. But due to restrictions of Express versions, you will not be able to change style settings and to use styles in layers.
