Yesterday my new presets for spring launched and I'm so excited to share them with you! I've been using them to edit my pictures for a several weeks now and in today's post I'm going to demonstrate them to you. The seasonal packs were originally meant to feature 6 presets for pack, but for the last two packs I designed I wasn't able to whittle down my favorites to 6 presets, so once again you have two "bonus" presets in this pack. While a lot of time and work went into these I'm still trying to keep the rate I sell them at reasonable, so it's £30 for the whole pack which comes to less than £4 per preset. There's a Lightroom desktop version, a Photoshop/ACR version, and a Lightroom mobile version, so if you use any of those programs to edit you can use these presets there. This pack is called the Bloom Pack and each preset is named after different things I love about spring!
April Showers: This is one of the more warm-toned presets in the pack (there's a mix of warmer and cooler tones throughout) and it's designed to help brighten up grey-er pictures that might be snapped on one of those wet spring days. It can also be used to add a bit of a "golden hour" glow to photographs.
Bluebells: This is a shady, cooler preset inspired by the bluebells that bloom in the forest here. It's good for bringing out greens, although honestly I tried to design all of the presets in this pack to be kind to greens!
Chain tree: A very bright and warm preset inspired by the golden chain trees that draw my eyes every summer.
Cherry Blossoms: One of the most delicate presets in the pack, this one will work very lightly on some photographs for a faint hint of pink, but can also brighten up more shadowy pictures.
Daffodils: This is a more intense preset than some of the others, great for brightening up pictures and enhancing yellows.
Lilac: A rich purple-y hued preset perfect for enhancing pinks and greens. Most of the presets in the pack will brighten pictures, but lilac is good for maintaining exposure and shadows.
Snowdrops: Inspired by the first blossoms of spring, snowdrops really bridges the gap between winter and spring. It's the darkest, coolest preset in the pack.
Wild Garlic: My personal favorite is wild garlic, it's a transformative preset with a hazy, grey-ish feel that reminds me of the shady paths you find the wild garlic growing in.
All of the examples in this post are edited using the presets and no other adjustments so you can really see what each preset does. It's hard to find presets that are "apply and done" in terms of editing, but I do my best to make them as close to that as possible. Still, I recommend using a preset as a launching point--it gives you the "look" you want and then you can do some minor tweaking of exposure or other details to make the photographs really sing for you! If you like the look of these presets, you can buy the pack here.

I added my winter editing presets to my shop recently and only just realized I never announced it on my blog! Between a newsletter, Instagram, Instagram stories, and so on my blog can get the short straw some days. But I don't think I'll ever be able to give up my blog completely. I still prefer the long-form of a blog; the ability to write a lengthy and thoughtful post or include a dozen pictures rather than having to choose just one shot. All that is an aside to the point of today's post: here's my new winter presets: a festive pack! I had a lot of fun making them and they've been getting really lovely feedback as well. I'm routinely demo-ing them in my Instagram stories too, so there's even more examples there and in my highlights if you want to know what effect each preset has on a photograph. The presets are available in Lightroom for desktop, Photoshop/ACR, and Lightroom mobile. Again it's a set of six primary presets, plus I through in two vintage inspired extra presets for fun so you actually get eight in total! I like a set of six because then these presets can work together as a team; not every preset is perfect for every picture but these are designed to work cohesively together so you don't have to use a single filter to still have a consistent editing style. I have been using these presets myself to edit all of my pictures this December. I use them as a launching point and add little adjustments on top to personalize each image, but am demonstrating them here without any edits beyond the presets themselves so you can see the effect they have on a photograph.
Evergreen: This is a very classic preset that brings out lots of detail and keeps greens very true. A lot of presets can kill greens (my autumn ones definitely do!) but winter to me is all about evergreen trees, branches of holly and so on, so it was important to me that my winter presets don't make greens look too gray or yellow. It's also less contrasting and brighter than some of the other presets in this pack.
Frost: Probably my favorite in the winter pack, frost is designed to make every picture look frosty and wintry. It's very blue-toned and works beautifully on cooling down warmer pictures or giving less wintry pictures a cold, snowy feeling. Most of my presets tip towards being warmer toned as I usually prefer warmer-looking pictures, so frost is very unique in my collection and gives the best winter vibes to all your photographs.
Holly: Inspired by the bright red berries on a holly branch, this is a very warm and red preset. It's more dramatic than the others in the festive pack so it isn't as universally flattering as some of the others, but perfect for when you want your photographs to have a unique punch.
Mistletoe: Another great preset for green, this is darker and more contrasted than the Evergreen filter; since winter is such a dark season many of these presets are geared to make your pictures a bit darker and moodier. Presets to me are about adding a mood or feeling to your pictures. Mistletoe is also great for brightening whites (like the white little mistletoe berries) and punching up greens.
Mulled Wine: This is my most popular preset from the winter pack based on feedback from my testers and those that have already purchased the pack. Mulled wine is a smoky filter that mimics the steam rising from a warm mug of mulled wine. It's soft and very universal filter that will give your winter photographs a real "mood."
Sugarplum: If you liked pumpkin patch from my autumn presets, then Sugarplum will probably be your favorite from this set. It's a winterized version of my favorite autumn preset, a bit darker and purplish it works beautifully to add a rich glow to your winter pictures. Named for the sugarplum fairy dance in the Nutcracker and the candied plums themselves.
