PORTRAIT MAGIC PRESETS

I worked steadily throughout 2023 to find an editing style that suited me and the kind of photography I like to take. These presets have found their way into all my images this year, many of which you can see on my website.

I have worked hard to fine-tune these presets so they work as a base for you to edit your images.

I personally use these on a daily basis, and therefore I am both proud and happy to release them to you so that you can create your own personal editing style.

**A word on presets if you’ve not bought any before: A lot of people think they’re a one-click magic button that make photos look great. They’re not. They are a ‘shortcut to a starting point ‘ as I say to my clients.

They will need some adjustments, and that is also where all the fun lies! Boost the contrast, adjust the colours, change the white balance and fine-tune the tone curve are just some examples of what you can do after applying these presets. That said, these are meant to speed up the editing process and to see what direction you want to go with the edit.
