The Black + White Preset Collection

Sale Price:$69.00 Original Price:$99.00

Includes the CLEAN, MATTE, and GRAIN custom presets by Laurenda Marie Photography.

Why I love the CLEAN Preset: It has punch. The whites are crisp and beautiful and the darks are strong and enchanting. It visually enhances each image with its bold contrast and depth. This is the most versatile preset in the collection. It does well with both outdoor AND indoor lighting scenarios. I turn to this preset the most in artificial lighting situations, such as inside a church or dimly lit reception. This CLEAN preset also compliments portraits that are romantic and emotive.

Why I love the GRAIN preset: To me, grain represents realness & rawness. A grainy black + white image evokes an ethereal timelessness that helps tell a story. That’s what we are. Storytellers for our clients. There is something so classic…so REAL and RAW that only grain depicts. It’s film-like. Enchanting. I turn to this preset with images in specific lighting scenarios. I find it performs best when light is of the bounty. Think outdoor portraits mid-day or before sundown, or well lit ballrooms with tall windows and intricate architecture. This preset is a MOOD. I’ve developed this preset to include contrast and a stronger dark point than most grain presets I’ve run across.

Why I love the MATTE preset: When it comes to black + white images, I fell hard for the matte style. The muted, matte shadows and skin tones really speak to me. I feel this preset is the perfect mix of modern & classic, flawlessly capturing emotion and movement. I love using this for lifestyle sessions, seniors, and couple portraits at dusk. However, this preset is quite versatile, and will work well in indoor artificial lighting scenarios, and with detail shots too!

*Presets are compatible with Lightroom.

Testimonials

“I love the depth and contrast. I compared them side by side to some of my previous black and whites and I love how much pop yours gives. They are pretty much one click on most, with some slight adjustments to exposure and blacks. I love that there are three of them, but aren’t radically different that if you switch between them, it won’t look like three different photographers did the editing. Very well done.” - Mandy W.


“ I have a few photos I’ve been playing with since July that I just haven’t been happy with. These presets worked perfect!!” - Nicole D.
