Lightroom Presets Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)Lightroom Presets
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)#gap-2089520159 padding-top: 26px;What Is Adobe Lightroom?Adobe Lightroom is a photo editing software used by photographers to edit your photos digitally while also allowing photographers to organize their photos quickly and efficiently allowing them to edit more photos in a shorter amount of time. Within the Lightroom software is the preset panel where users can edit photos with custom or saved photography presets.
There are several different versions of Lightroom that require slightly different installation methods to import or load photo Lightroom presets into the relevant version. Each method basically has you installing (importing or copying and pasting) the presets into the application folder or importing directly from inside the Lightroom Presets Panel. A thing to note is that there are slightly different locations depending on the type of computer you are using, but the method is very similar. Links to the install methods for each version of Lightroom are included on our install page linked below.
Using Lightroom presets is very easy and takes just a few minutes to learn and become comfortable in Lightroom and with applying and then customizing the Lightroom presets using the sliders, if needed, to each image. Try each Lightroom preset to see how it changes your image. You can then adjust any of the Lightroom preset sliders that you want to adjust the image further. We have created video tutorials for all of our photo preset collections and they are included on each product page. Please watch several of the tutorials to become comfortable editing your images with the Lightroom presets.
I was able to import all my presents from Lightroom Classic, to Lightroom CLOUD. I did this to use my presets on my mobile devices. Right now I have access to all these presents on my iPhone with no problems, but I am not sure if I can even use them on my iPad Pro.
One of the hottest topics in the photography industry today is Lightroom presets. What are they? Are they worth it? Will they really help you to create images you love? Today I want to debunk common myths surrounding Lightroom presets, and help you see how they could help you in your photography business!
Hi David, Loving the new shorter videos on specific topics in light room to help with workflow. Had not realised that you could do presets with the new masking tool. Looking forward to what else is in the pipeline. Thanks so much
Next I just started exploring! When I got stuck on something I just YouTubed it! The best way to learn is to just push every button, slide every slider, see how far you can push the images! Once you have an image the way you like, open the Presets Tab in the left menu and create a new preset. I created about 7 different presets before I was happy with a final three.
I loved seeing how the presets looked on different kinds of images! They will look different on indoor vs outdoor, bright light vs dim light, etc. Testing your presents will help you tweak them so that they can be used on a wider variety of images.
If you want to download your Presets to sell, right click the image (or File>Export with Preset) to save it as a DNG file.
TIP: Create organized folders on your desktop for all your images and files!
Matt I already bought from you a lot of presets but today when I updated my Lightroom CC clasic all of them disappear and when I try to see if I can import them the plus sign do not appear May you said me what to do. Where do Lightroom keep the presets? Thanks in advance
I've been doing some light Lightroom online searching for some help and of course, Facebook is giving me ads for Lightroom brushes and presets. Wondering if anyone has heard of or used Luxe Lens or Kelvin Designs? Are there some worth purchasing? Any insight is welcome.

i am also wondering about these sets
The FB ads are not enough to help me decide.He has a youtube channel,but i have never seen him do his own sets
i would love to see some real world use of them.If FB ads are correct,well they look amazing
Cheers

I have definitely heard of Kelvin and also Nucly. I subscribed to their email notifications. At first I thought Lightroom brushes was a typo and they meant brushes for PS CC instead. In one of the above posts it says that "brushes" for Lr are just presets rather than actual brushes. I ordered a $9 set of brushes for PS but have not had a chance to try them yet. Go to their web sites and I think they have video tutorials.
I probably should refrain from commenting on the business model of selling presets. Just a line of thought: If you take a purchased preset and tweak it, are you infringing on someones intellectual property? Can there be a copyright on ten numerical values that make a preset? Could you publish the modified preset? Where is the limit on the number of modified parameters? How "different" do the values have to be? ...
One of the comments on your blog really made me laugh, though:
"If you find anyone who creates a GUI for this process, please let me know."

basically I'd say the difference in values needs to be one unit
Your being sarcastic right?
But then, why people would even buy presets in the first place is beyond me. I mean, you've already paid someone for this really cool program, and now your paying someone else to push the 2 dozen buttons for you. I dont get it... Its not like buying brushes or fonts that are the result of hours of creative work, we're talking about a couple sliders here.
IMO Selling Lightroom presets seems like, well, like selling ice to an Eskimo.

I don't really understand the market in presets either. But it does have some similarities to the market in books and 3rd-party training... you could think of it as buying worked homework sets without the lecture on how and why it works.
Once you start peeking under the hood, there is lots that can be done that is difficult to get the (existing, and really quite nice) GUI to do.... the easiest way to create a negative preset is to reverse half the numbers in the ToneCurve list, for instance.
Under the hood, you will find text in the Lua language everywhere you look. Lua is easy to use, and designed to do what Adobe is using it for here. Learn more than you want to know about Lua at www.lua.org.

Alan wrote about tweaking the presets. The method he described is the same whether it is applied to purchased or free presets.
I enjoy presets for giving me a quick way to mouse through a range of other possible treatments for a photo once I have one more-or-less final version of it. They're like quick hands-on tutorials in what works and what doesn't for a given photo or range of photos, with the opportunity to study the Develop panels to understand how an effect (or disaster) was produced.
There are a few presets that I use frequently because they save me time. There is none that I use without some tweaking, and often the same sequences of adjustments. Now I can save my own versions of these presets as the starting points for certain photos. They can go in the folder with all the presets I've already created for myself.
I'm delighted to find new free presets, even though I don't keep some of them active for very long. I don't care if other people want to buy presets. And I don't blame Alan or his article for my staying up far too late last night while I played with presets in Lightroom.
Virtual copies . . . presets . . . tweaked presets . . . so many possibilities, so much fun.
Thanks for sharing your technique with us, Alan.

With respect my blog post said nothing about the business model of whether one should sell presets or not - it was all about working out what was in a preset if I ever needed to change it.
Personally I don't have an issue paying for a set of presets if I think they would work for me. I purchased Gary Seim's Black and White presets and instantly had an infrared effect I had been trying to achieve for hours. Whilst I am sure I may have eventually found the correct alignment of parameters it may have took me quite some time. My own personal time is valuable so in this case I was happy to shell out a few bucks for what has turned out to be a very valuable set of presets. Consider 10 preset parameters with say 10 steps or levels on each - how many variance of the same image could that make? I'll let you do the maths.
@Harry Limey
With the greatest respect you are missing something. I could have two presets which when combined give a nice effect. But what if a particular develop setting is included in both presets (e.g. Recovery level) - whichever one is applied last will take precedence. Which was my key point originally - I want to know specifically what is set by a preset. I think @chad explains it better than me in his follow up comment to your. And again "ten numerical values making a preset" - think again and do the maths. That is the very reason there are so many nice presets out there - it is because the variations are almost inifinite.
@method_photo
That is indeed an excellent paper you have on your site - superb. If you don't mind I'd like to include a link to this from the original blog post?
Thanks for the comments and feedback.
Cheers
