How to Install Presets

Unzip the folder you downloaded.
(Optional but I recommend copy/pasting unzipped folder into a location that’s easy to find and refer back to).
Open Lightroom and go to the Presets panel (in the Develop module).
Click the “+” icon in the Presets panel, then choose “Import Presets.”
Navigate to the unzipped folder, select all the .XMP files, and click Import.
Your presets will now show up in the Presets panel, ready to use!

Find wherever the zip folder saves to your phone, I typically just go to the search bar and type “files” to access my icloud files. From there I find the zip folder that was just created. Save the images to your phone once you’ve found them.
The settings you are looking for (aka presets) will be on the .dng images. You’ll be essentially opening the image and creating a preset from the settings embedded in the file. Do note that the .dng images are compressed and may look funny, that’s not an issue as we really just want the settings that are attached.
Upload/open the .dng images within Lightroom Mobile.
With image open, tap the icon with three dots inside a circle.
Tap on “Create Preset”
Ensure all boxes are check marked, specifically the “Masking” box as I use masks in a good amount of my presets.
Name Preset whatever you’d like then tap the checkmark in the upper right hand corner and you’re good to go!

If you run into any issues or have questions, send me an email at “clickpicpreset@gmail.com” or send me a dm on instagram:)

Happy editing 🤎

Helpful Tips when using Presets

Here I will include a bullet list of tips I find myself using when utilizing the presets I make

To start, I shoot Canon, so all of these presets are made based off of .cr2 (Canon camera raw) images. The color profiles vary from camera to camera so colors may be slightly different depending on what camera body you use.
I tend to try to shoot for exposure based on skin. If you tend to aim for under or over exposure always make sure to adjust exposure slider as it’ll make these presets work better. (in my opinion of course)
Temperature/tint is always an easy tweak, white balances aren’t always the same from photographer to photographer, or camera to camera; so warm or cool the preset when applied if you feel the need
The presets I make include an “amount” slider. Typically right above the preset panel so you can adjust how strong you want the preset to be applied.
I use masks, I love them. Always check the masks tab and toggle on/off to see if you like what is there. The masks also include an “amount slider” so you can adjust there as well!
For best results try to use presets on similar light and location images. Presets for studio may not work that well in a mountain setting and vice-versa.
