Gujarati bandhani colour: bold reds, yellows and greens
Warmer than Punjabi bold, with yellows and greens leading: bandhani and panetar reds, gharchola gold and mirror work that keeps its sparkle.
One of the six looks made for Indian weddings, region by region. You choose it per project; CullTone never picks it from the people in the frame.
True to cameraGujarati bandhani colour
Drag to compare. Left of the line is True to camera, the plainest look; right of it is Gujarati bandhani colour at full strength, rendered from the same file.
| What it does | Warm bandhani reds, yellows and greens, softer contrast than Punjabi bold |
|---|---|
| Good for | Gujarati weddings, garba and dandiya nights |
When we'd reach for it
Gujarati Hindu and Jain weddings, garba and dandiya nights, mehendi and pithi.
When we wouldn't
Quiet pastel day ceremonies. The extra colour is built for a full dance floor.
The recipe
These are the settings stored in the look, drawn rather than listed. They sit on top of your camera's own colour and the exposure and white balance CullTone sets for each photo, so the same look lands a little differently on every frame.
Every look has a strength from 0 to 1.5. At 0 you get the plain camera-matched edit, at 1 the look as drawn here, and above 1 more of everything it does. More on reading curves in tone curves for photographers.
