Golden Hour Film Style for Krea 2: warm, nostalgic, faded film light ✨

Welcome to Golden Hour Film Style! This LoRA gives your Krea 2 images the feeling of a warm, nostalgic film photograph shot in the last light of the day: honey and peach tones, soft glowing highlights, gently lifted blacks and a dreamy, shallow depth of field. Clean and cinematic, with no added grain.

It's a style LoRA, not a character LoRA, so it works with any subject: people, places, food, animals, interiors and landscapes. Your subject stays yours, and the look comes from the LoRA.

What it gives you

• warm golden-hour light and soft backlight with a gentle glow

• a faded film look with lifted blacks

• honey, peach, apricot, rose, sage and teal-shadow colour moods

• shallow depth of field and a cinematic feel

• a clean image, with no film grain baked in (add grain afterwards if you like it)

Recommended LoRA Strength

Start at 1.0. Go lower for a subtler look, or higher for a stronger one. Every checkpoint and workflow is a little different, so please play with it and tell me what works best for you.

Works Well For

• portraits and candid everyday moments

• couples, families and elderly people in quiet, human scenes

• hands-on activities: gardening, baking, pottery, fishing, markets

• countryside, villages, seaside towns and old streets

• still life: fruit, bread, kettles, flowers on a windowsill

• interiors lit by a window

• animals: dogs, horses, cats, birds

• spring blossoms, summer fields, autumn leaves and soft winter light

Prompting Tips

You do not need to write "golden hour" or "film" in your prompt. The trigger word brings the look. Just describe your scene, and add details like the time of day, the camera angle or the mood if you want more control.

Some ideas:

goldfilm_style, a young woman with wavy hair standing in a wheat field, backlit by the setting sun, wearing a linen dress

goldfilm_style, an elderly man laughing on a wooden porch, a mug of tea in his hands

goldfilm_style, a lone farmhouse on a hillside with a winding dirt road and tall grass

goldfilm_style, a rustic kitchen table with ripe peaches, a glass pitcher of water and a linen cloth, morning window light

goldfilm_style, a golden retriever running through a meadow with wildflowers

goldfilm_style, a couple walking along a quiet seaside promenade, seen from behind

Good to Know

• Text on signs and labels can still come out garbled, as in most models. Keep text short or add it afterwards.

• The style is warm by design. If a scene turns too orange, lower the strength a little or ask for cooler tones in your prompt.

• It's trained on adult subjects and everyday clothed scenes, and all training images are AI-generated. No real people were used.

Please Help Me Make It Better! 💛

This is a living project, and I want to improve it with you. If you use it:

• post your images in the gallery, I'd love to see what you create

• leave a comment with what works, what doesn't and what you'd love to see in V2 (more night scenes? cooler moods? more cities? more food?)

• tell me which base models, checkpoints and strengths you tried it on

Thank you for trying it, and have fun!
