Presets and Why You Should Use Them
So I wanted to add this section to talk a little bit about presets. I think presets are an awesome tool for Lightroom Mobile. The fact that you can use them on Lightroom Mobile is already amazing but I think they're absolutely awesome for creating um not only epic awesome, beautiful edits but efficiency as well. It saves so much time. We could just click a button and out of preset and your photo is pretty much done and I am edit most of my photos with presets on Lightroom Mobile. In fact, that's how I edit all of my photos. I always start with a preset and then I adjust it from there. But if you're one of those people that's asking yourself, okay what is a preset? A preset is basically a saved edit. So if you edit a photo you can save all of those settings, the color edits, the exposure, the tone curve, everything and you can apply that to another photo and that's awesome because it saves you a lot of time. If you worked really hard getting those various color schemes um then you can a...
pply that same edit to another photo. You don't have to do it all over again. Another reason why presets are awesome is because if presets were created on the desktop version of Lightroom, there is one feature on the desktop version of Lightroom that the mobile version doesn't have and that's sliders for the red, green and blue primary colors which allows you to get some really, really awesome color schemes that look really, really cool. So if you have presets that were created on the desktop version, you can get some really, really awesome color combinations. So I sell presets on my website and I have three different packages, the travel package, the cafe package and the portrait package and I use all of them but there's a ton of different awesome presets out there and I just want to show you really quickly how awesome they are when it comes to editing. So here I have a photo here of my friend to um this was taken in new Zealand really cool photo. So that's how presets here. I have my different preset packs, I'm gonna go to my travel pack because that's the one I use the most. Um and then I can just tap each preset and you can see it already applies the edits from previous photos right onto my image here. There's a lot of really good ones here. I want to get like a orange teal, I can go with Chicago or Tokyo or there's so many different ones here. Wellington looks really cool, I like that one de saturated. Um and then after that after you apply the preset you can just go through and just do some basic adjustments, so lowering the highlights, you know, creating more detail there. Maybe bring a little bit more color in here. So in short presets are just an awesome tool and I highly recommend you try them out. Um I sell three different proximal website. So if you're interested in this travel one have a Portrait one and a food one as well. Those are there there's links in the description of this course, but there's a lot of other presets out there as well. You can actually create your own presets as well, which can save you a lot of times. If you work really hard, finding that edit, you can save it, create your own preset and use it later on.
