Iga & Rafał – Black&White Wedding Photojournalism – Lightroom Presets ( B&W Pepper for LR 4 )

Lightroom 4 Black & White Analog Film Presets

Probably every modern photographer loves great Black&White photography. The same goes for me, however I like the delicious colors even more, so I use Black&White processing only in exceptional cases. I always wanted my BW photos to look the best they can and I looked for the best BW processing for a long, long time.

On the beginning I went through the basic LR processing, but it doesn’t quite satisfied me. Then I switched to Silver Effex, and found the results excellent! But the workflow for plugins in Lightroom is not integrated in LR itself enough. Then I went for the CaptureNX which is great for colors and good enough for BW, but when working on Delicious Presets I used all the LR power, I found it the greatest tool for Black&Whites! :)

I processed all these photos with one of the Black & White Pepper Presets for Lightroom 4 – Smooth Shadow. I just tuned the basic settings ( Exposure, Highlights, Whites, Shadows, Blacks ) for each photo – so easy to fit the preset.

Lightroom 4 Analog Presets - Delicious Presets - Distinct Analog Creamy Love

I love to shoot wedding sessions in the evening, when the sun is low enough to add nice warm color and mood. To emphasize the softness and warmth you can add one of the creamy lightroom presets. The pastel colors works great with such a light.

I processed all these photos with one of the Distinct Analog Presets for Lightroom 4-5 – Creamy Love. I just tuned the exposure for each photo – so easy to fit the preset. Enjoy and feel free to leave your comments :) (more…)

Lightroom 4 Color Presets - Delicious Presets - Delicious Colors Bright Portrait

Shot this session last Saturday. Monika is going to marry Lukasz on 7.07 :) I like to use uniform colors for whole session. It was warm this evening and the sun went low enough to give us the great natural light. I also used a quick strobist setup ( SB-600 in manual mode ) just for a few portraits on the end of the session.

All photos look great to me with one of the Delicious Colors Presets for Lightroom 4-5 – Bright Portrait. I just tuned the preset for each photo and here they are – 14 photos from the session. Enjoy and feel free to leave your comments :) (more…)
