Bring an Artistic Quality to Your Photos

Texture blending adds a whole new creative dimension to your photography. Layer a texture over almost any photo and you can turn it into something more painterly, moody or one of a kind.


I photographed these textures myself: rust and patina from old cars and trucks across the Southwest, close-ups of rocks and stones, weathered wood with peeling paint, and everyday materials like leather, denim and cork.


They work in Luminar, Photoshop, ON1, Affinity Photo and any other program that lets you work in layers.

Textures I Photographed Myself

Hi, I’m Matt Suess. I’m a photographer and workshop leader, and I’ve been teaching photo enthusiasts for years.


I photographed every texture in this bundle myself, many of them while traveling the Southwest: rust on old trucks, weathered wood, stones and everyday materials with great character.


They’re high resolution and varied enough that you’ll find one that fits almost any creative idea.

What Photographers Say

★★★★★

“I just received and downloaded the kits. Scanning through them, they are fabulous. This will be a kick trying these with some pix I’ve given up on. I love the desert collection. Sunsets in AZ can be spectacular and these will do nothing but make them better.”

Jim Kiefer, Arizona

I’ve never blended textures. Is it hard?

Not at all, and basic instructions come with your download to get you started. Place a texture on a layer above your photo, change the blend mode and lower the opacity until it looks right. Masking lets you keep it off areas like faces or skies.
