Sean McCormack releases his new Lightroom Preset Pack!

Here at PT4U we all love presets. Lets be honest it makes our lives a whole lot easier and saves hours of time in front of the computer. Our Lightroom master Sean McCormack feels exactly the same and has hundreds of presets he has created. Sean is not only a Lightroom master he is great fashion and people photographer. His love of fashion photography inspired him to create his new Preset Pack for Lightroom.

LRB Preset Pack Vol 1. is a set of 18 fantastic presets that range from B&W to heavily process colour looks for people photography. It borrows a lot from current fashion trends, but is equally at home with bands, portraits and fashion. Inspiration for each preset has come from a variety of sources, magazine editorials, lookbooks and from other photographers.

We spent some time yesterday using the presets and loved them all. Below are some examples of our favourites from the preset pack.

The "Ingrained" preset

Ingrained is a grainy Black & White preset with medium contrast. It’s a ‘get started’ in grainy B&W preset meant for starting to get your B&W film look. It makes me think of Ilford Delta 100 or FP4 Plus. The grain is big, but fine. Again this use Saturation to get the B&W look rather than using the B&W panel. Overwrites almost all Develop settings.

The "Painted" preset

  

Painted is a colour preset, but looking at Fit image size won’t do any good. It’s a deliberate misuse of the Detail panel to make skin really painterly. Only visible close up and in larger print. It’s one for effect more than anything else. As you might imagine, it overwrites everything.

The"Sirocco" preset

Sirocco is a desert wind, so I think it’s a good name for a preset that warms up a photo. A basic preset, this add warmth in both the Highlight and Shadows in the Split Tone panel. Overwrites the Tone Curve and Split Toning panels only.

These are just three of the presets in the pack of 18. For more information and to get your preset pack click HERE
