Match Tone and Colour in Photoshop

This image attracted me because I really love photography and manipulating photos taken. I love the colors in this and how they are very retro. I would love to try this at some point to some of my photos I have taken over the last three years. They used Photoshop which I am relatively comfortable using so I believe I could accomplish this photograph manipulation.
