Bring Scandinavian Color Grading to Your Photos
Every great photograph tells a story. The colors in those photographs give that story emotion. Whether you're taking documentary, travel, or editorial photographs of people, the process of achieving that natural yet cinematic look can be challenging. Nordic Editorial was created to make it easy for photographers to have access to this Scandinavian-inspired color grading for their photography editing workflows.
Inspired by the colors and tones of the Nordic countries, Nordic Editorial was created to allow photographers to produce timeless images with these features.
What Is Nordic Editorial?
Nordic Editorial is a professional style pack for Capture One that applies Scandinavian-inspired color grading to your images. Instead of dramatically changing your photos, it enhances natural light, improves color harmony, and creates smooth tonal transitions that feel authentic and sophisticated.
This makes it an excellent choice for photographers who want their images to look clean, modern, and emotionally engaging without appearing over-edited.
For example:
- Create elegant fashion editorials with balanced colors.
- Enhance documentary photography while preserving realism.
- Give travel images a calm Nordic atmosphere.
- Improve portrait photography with soft, natural-looking skin tones.
- Produce consistent color grading across an entire photo series.
These improvements help create stronger visual storytelling because viewers focus on the mood of the image rather than distracting color inconsistencies.
Nordic Editorial Makes Professional Color Grading Simple
Instead of spending time manually adjusting multiple color settings, Nordic Editorial provides professionally crafted styles that instantly establish a beautiful foundation for your edits.
Features
Scandinavian-Inspired Color Styles
The pack includes two carefully designed styles:
- Oslo
- Copenhagen
Each style delivers a unique Nordic aesthetic while maintaining realistic colors.
Multiple Contrast Variations
Both styles include three different contrast versions, allowing you to choose the look that best matches your image and lighting conditions.
Designed for Editorial Photography
The styles are optimized for:
- Editorial photography
- Documentary projects
- Photojournalism
- Lifestyle photography
- Travel photography
Beautiful Natural Light Rendering
The styles enhance natural light instead of overpowering it, creating elegant color gradations and balanced highlights that feel organic.
Flexible Editing Workflow
Simply apply a style, adjust exposure and white balance, then fine-tune the image to match your personal editing style.
Layer Support in Capture One Pro 23
Capture One Pro 23 allows these styles to be applied on multiple layers with adjustable opacity, giving photographers greater creative control over the final appearance while maintaining a completely non-destructive workflow.
Real-World Creative Examples
Imagine editing a documentary series photographed on an overcast day. Applying the Oslo style creates smooth neutral colors while preserving the authentic atmosphere.
For fashion editorials, the Copenhagen style delivers refined tones and elegant contrast that complement modern clothing and minimalist compositions.
Travel photographers can also use the styles to emphasize soft natural lighting, making landscapes and city scenes feel calm, cinematic, and cohesive throughout an entire collection.


Pro Tips for Better Results
Start by choosing the style that best matches your subject before making any manual adjustments.
Correct exposure and white balance first, as these two settings have the biggest impact on the final color appearance.
Experiment with the different contrast variations to find the balance that best suits each image.
Use the styles as a creative starting point rather than a final preset. Small adjustments to exposure, color balance, and contrast can make the final image feel uniquely yours.
