It doesn’t suit all photos of course, it’s also only a starting point as you should develop your photos in whatever way you desire. To avoid repeating all those steps every time I created a Lightroom preset.
Grab that file and install it in the same way you’d install any Lightroom preset. What d’you think?

  1. nice. the one in the video is a bit OTT but yours is a tad more subtle. created a few lightroom presets myself a while back. must get back into it.
