What Is a Vignette Effect?

A vignette is a darkening or lightening towards the edges of an image compared to the center. Historically often an unintended optical limitation of lenses, it's now commonly used intentionally as a creative effect to draw focus to the center of the image.

Use Cases

  • Drawing viewer attention to the subject
  • Creating a focused, intimate feel
  • Adding a retro or vintage aesthetic
  • Enhancing portraits by darkening distracting backgrounds
  • Artistic photo styling

How to Use

  1. Drag & drop or click 'Choose Image' to upload your photo.
  2. The image with the vignette effect applied will appear automatically.
  3. Adjust the 'Strength' slider to control the darkness of the edges (0% to 100%).
  4. Adjust the 'Size' slider to control how far the vignette extends towards the center (0% to 100%).
  5. Click 'Download Image' to save the result as a PNG file.
  6. The filename will be automatically appended with "_vignette".
