Lightroom Classic users can have unlimited presets too, and it only takes a simple workaround. In this video I show you the hack, which makes use of Lightroom on the Web to give you unlimited presets across every Lightroom platform, Classic included. It's an easy one to set up, and once you know it's there, it opens up far more presets than you'd otherwise have to choose from in Classic.
So recently I wrote about these 2 images that I captured over the past few weeks …
I edited both images in Lightroom so what I’ve done is make all of the editing steps donwloadable as a Preset that you can use in Lightroom and / or Camera Raw.
You can see the editing steps for both of these images in the Lightroom Community, so if you’d like them as a Preset I’ve written out the steps below …
Click on the link below to got to my Profile Page on lightroom.adobe.com
Click on each image in turn and choose Save as Preset on the far right of the screen
Give the Preset a name. Choose which edits you want included and then press Save
This Preset will now be saved in Your Presets in a Saved from Community folder in your Lightroom.
If you also want this Preset to appear in your Lightroom Classic / Desktop, simply Right-Click on the name of the Preset and choose Export.
You can then import the Preset File into Lightroom Classic.
This one's short and sweet. If you've picked up some presets and want to start using them, here's how to import them quickly and easily into both Lightroom and Camera Raw. I go through the process in each so you can see exactly where to go and what to click, which means you can have your presets installed and ready to use on your photographs in no time.
