Save Yourself Time – Use Lightroom Presets

Why you should be using Lightroom Presets


Whether you’re new to photography, or you’ve been in business for awhile, learning is an on-going process. And as we all know, there is never enough time – not enough hours in a day – to get everything done.


So if you haven’t been using Lightroom you’re wasting time! And furthermore, if you haven’t been using Lightroom Presets, you’re really wasting your time.

We love this article about creating your own Lightroom Presets, by Digital Photography School – it’s simple, clearly explained, and is a time-saver any way you look at it. In a few easy steps, you can create your own presets and then batch edit your shoots.


What we love even more – finding already made presets and Photoshop actions from our favorite photographers in the industry. Just a few of our favorite photographer’s and their presets are here for your to check out.
