What are presets?

Presets are pre-defined edits made in Adobe Lightroom. They are designed by our professional photographer to help take your mobile photos to the next level.

What happens if the presets aren’t making my photos look the way I want them to?

First, make sure you’re taking a good photo. Check the lighting situation (too dark, too bright?) and clean your camera lens. If the presets still aren’t work the way you’d like them to, you can always adjust them in Lightroom. Lightroom allows for brightness, color, and contrast adjustment (along with many others) so try tweaking those items! Most importantly, before you buy our presets, make sure you read the descriptions of the packs. This will give you an idea of what kind of photos work best with each pack so you purchase the right one. Remember, presets aren’t magic. They can’t make a blurry photo clear or a completely dark photo bright. While you don’t need to be a professional to use presets, you want to make sure you’re still taking good photos to get maximum results.

No! Our presets are a one time purchase. Then, you get to keep them forever. Even if you switch phones, you’ll be able to re-install the presets buy logging into your Lightroom account or by saving your download link. The presets can be used an unlimited amount of times, so edit away!
