Help finding the right plugins and filters

Hi everyone. I recently took my daughter's senior pictures and she wants the pictures to look like this photographer's pictures. (http://www.andrew-edwards.com/1gpfy09s1qte4m87lqomiafiq757xt) The all have sort of a dark quality to them. I'm having trouble finding the right filters and settings to achieve this look. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Thanks so much!

April,

The process to emulate those looks will be dependent on what her images look like to start with. If you can post/send a few sample images I can probably point you in the right direction to get started.

If I had to guess I might lean towards VSCO film presets (you can get similar presets from the G'MIC plugin as well).

Help finding the right plugins and filters

Thanks for offering to help! I have found a couple of tutorials on G'MIC, but it has so many options that I'm just not sure where to start. I have attached a few pictures of different settings. Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

April,

The particular part of G'MIC I'm referring to is "Film Emulations". There are quite a few different emulations for various film stocks that may get you what you are looking for color-wise.

Bear in mind that the 'darkness' to the images in your first post are due to a combination of processing as well as the exposure conditions at the time. Your sample images have quite a bit of direct sunlight in them, which makes it a bit harder to impart a sense of 'darkness' in them.

April,

Because I cannot leave well enough alone, a second example:

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Ca4gKTlu72k/VGDwQNFC2bI/AAAAAAAASOU/_3YxRElY7t8/s0/april-2.jpg

This time it's basically some simple color toning, a vignette, and lifting the blacks again (with some slight split-toning).
