I made this preset while working on Thao & Dan’s engagement pictures. It’s a completely unassuming preset. It’s nothing flashy, but it’s oh so effective. I call it, simply, “Light Pop.”
Since its creation, I’ve used the preset on a large majority of my recent work. It’s become my go-to preset when I want a bit of an exposure and contrast boost as well as a warm tone. Oh, and you can’t forget a touch of vignette… I do love subtle vignettes. It’s meant to be a base preset – great for photos that are intended to look natural, or give a great starting point that you can tweak further.
Why am I giving it away for free, you ask? Well, I’m sharing for a totally selfish reason… I would love to see how other people use it, and in the process, maybe make some new photographer friends (as I’m new in the biz and all). So, download it, test it out, and post your results here. Make sure you include a link to your site so I can oogle it (psst, I’m encouraging you to link back to your sites!).
Here are a few examples:
