Just a little over a month ago, I did something crazy… I shared my Lightroom preset with the world that took me YEARS to develop! After the hundreds upon hundreds of hours I’ve spent in Lightroom over the years as a wedding photographer and private photo editor, something clicked one day and I created a new version of the preset I’ve been using for years. This new version actually works using the newest Lightroom features and technologies and it is actually much more accurate than a normal preset! That means that everyone who has gotten to use this preset has genuinely been blown away by how well it works on their photos. I couldn’t believe it myself! I knew it had to be shared with the world when I saw just how much time it was saving me in post-processing. This has truly been a game changer and it’s been amazing to see how it’s changing workflows for photographers everywhere!!
Needless to say, since creating the Clean & Classic Preset suite, it’s been so incredibly inspiring to see all the beautiful photos people have been posting with the presets. It’s especially amazing to see the Before & After examples with this preset, so today I wanted to share a few of my recent favorite edits from real Clean & Classic Photographers! (Come join us on Facebook if you’d like to see more examples and learn more about Lightroom, editing tips, shooting in a clean and classic style, and of course, the Clean & Classic preset suite!)

Brittany said: “I would literally get headaches editing with the previous preset I had purchased because it took me forever to get the skin tones looking normal. You have saved my editing game. I still get the bright film look that I loved in 2 seconds instead of 10 minutes!”
