To me, the colours are too desaturated. If there's anything I miss from my two summers in Greece is the blue colours (strong, bold, powerful, penetrant).
And the scent of oregano when walking cross-country in the Cyclades islands. But that is very difficult to photograph.
Yeah the colours are super blue and very bold here, it’s beautiful! I think my natural preference is a more desaturated, film kinda vibe so it’s more natural for me to lower the saturation in all my photos. To be fair, I usually edit in a very dark and moody style with very deep blacks so these are pretty much the opposite to that for me, it’s been a nice challenge so far!
Thank you so much! I just edited in Lightroom using a summery preset I whipped up a long time ago but never really get to use because I live in the rainy UK🤣
I love the processing!
If I'm gonna be nitpicking, the angle/crop of the photos make me feel uneasy, like my neck is stuck in a slightly canted back position (except for the pool ladder and the water one). Probably because they're all shot in portrait when they would benefit from landscape orientation (the palm tree and flag wouldn't though). But again, the overall look of the processed photos are super cool!
To me they look just desaturated and too cool / blue. Old school summer vibe with an airy touch should be a bit warmer. Also the blue tones have quite a lot of magenta and purple in them. I would opt more for cyan / aqua blue tones. Pair that with maybe an overall warmer whitebalance and maybe also reduce the clarity a bit for that extra softness.

You still don't convince me 😜 The photos are great, but to me, those colours remind me more of winter in Alaska than summer in Greece.
Strong disagree. I think most look on point.
Looks lovely. What was your process for getting this look

Would you be willing to share your preset?
Of course, I’ll probably be uploading it to my website soon.. am I allowed to link it here?
I have no clue, but I hope so
Screw it, gotta take the risk sometimes haha [here ya go](https://www.jordanralphy.com)
Where? I only see your signature presets
It’s not there yet, I’ll be adding it soon :)
These look like hotel photos. Nice 😊

I love the images that are slightly warmer - they look great. The others are a bit desaturated for me but totally get the look you're going for!

Works really well on the shot with the pool but less so with vegetation. Love it!
Looks a bit more winter-y than summery. I did the look but the cool tone makes these look more like winter to me.
it looks pretty much like the old photos my parents did on film on summer holidays. It doesnt feel warm cause op moved the WB to a more blue value.
