presets

UPDATE:

I am no longer using these presets- I will keep them up for sale for the next month but will then be pulling them down as they no longer represent my current work.

_______________________________________________________________________________

I have been playing around with the idea of releasing my presets for months, and finally have decided to go for it. I have spent a lot of time tweaking these back and forth and am so excited to share. I built these to make my post work as easy as possible, and depending on the circumstance am usually adjusting exposure, white balance and contrast. I hope you enjoy and they assist with creating a consistent workflow!

KN 01

This is really good for use on cloudy days as it has a little less contrast but creates a really soft and subtle warm look. I typically use this for my overcast wedding ceremonies or cooler tone locations. Usually tweaking exposure, temperature and sometimes contrast.

KN 02

This was the first preset I developed; typically most things posted on my Instagram are edited with this preset. It has a higher contrast and less saturation; I use this most frequently for my beach sessions, water sessions and a ton during blue hour. I shoot under exposed and set my kelvin to match the situation. Usually tweaking temperature, contrast and bringing exposure up a bit to get a punchy but smooth skin tone.

KN 03

I use this for backlit situations and golden hour sun sets. Higher contrast, lower saturation and increased highlights and shadows to really make your subjects pop. Depending on the location I always tweak exposure, temperature and usually a bit of saturation to off set the warmth of the sun.

KN 04

For those that like to shoot before the sun is up or after it has set; this is my go to. A punch of contrast and slightly desaturated tones. I typically tweak exposure, contrast and white balance. I use this for my water sessions, indoor sessions with window light and any warmer scenes at blue hour.

Purchase

FAQ.

Are these easy to tweak?

Are these available separately or just in a package deal?

Can these be downloaded to my phone?

A.

Yes, of course! I typically tweak exposure, contrast, some white balance and depending on the lighting; shadows. Please note: these cannot fix inaccurate camera settings or poor exposure. I shoot in Kelvin, and I adjust my white balance a to fit every circumstance and typically shoot at sunset/sunrise when I can. During weddings I find shade or cloud cover and avoid harsh light as often as possible.
