Faded, vintage look

[Slow Loris]

Hello there,

I'm new to this forum so forgive me if I put this in the wrong location. I'm not exactly sure where it would fit, but it seems like a general questions so here I am.

I'm trying to find a way to achieve the faded, vintage look in photographs. Does anyone know if it's special filters, photoshop, or the combination of the both? I'm posted some pictures below for the type of pictures I'm trying to emulate. It is possible that some of these are genuine vintage photos, but I know some of them were taken fairly recently.

Thanks!
