How it works

Three steps and you're editing.

  1. Buy on Etsy

    Checkout happens on Etsy, and your files are ready to download right after.

  2. Download the XMP files

    Every pack comes as XMP preset files. There are no DNG files in the packs.

  3. Import into Lightroom

    Add the presets to Lightroom once, then apply a look to any photo and tweak it from there.

Questions

Good to know before you buy.

Do they work with the free Lightroom app?

Yes. They work in the free Lightroom mobile app on iPhone, iPad and Android, and in Lightroom and Lightroom Classic on desktop.

How do I install them?

Download the zip, then import it into Lightroom. Every pack comes with a short PDF guide that walks you through it for each app.

What's an XMP file?

It's the file type Lightroom uses for presets and profiles. You import it once and the looks show up in Lightroom. The packs don't include DNG files.

What's the difference between presets and profiles?

A preset sets your editing sliders. A profile sets the base color and leaves your sliders free, so you can still edit on top. Most packs are presets, and the Fujifilm pack is profiles.

Will my photos look exactly like the examples?

Not exactly, since every photo starts from different light. Most of the time a small tweak to exposure or white balance gets you there.

Do they work on phone photos?

Yes. They look best on RAW files, but they work on iPhone and other phone photos too.
