The Lightroom presets are a great way to speed up photo editing. Through my experience as a documentary and street photographer I created these Lightroom presets for you, street photographer. There is my story with photography in these presets that I made with love and passion to use them for my work and now I decided to give them to you!
There are the ones I use mostly and there are those that I used for some projects, exhibitions and books.
They don't make the photo overly retouched and keep in mind the aesthetics of film photography, from Ektachrome to Kodak TRI-X 400 and the lessons of my masters: Joel Meyerowitz, Stephen Shore, Joel Sternfeld, Luigi Ghirri, Garry Winogrand, Lee Friedlander, Garry Winogrand.
They are divided for theme:
FILM SIMULATIONS
MASTERS TRIBUTE
JAPANESE STREETS
PROVOKE
STREET PHOTOGRAPHY CAMERAS
THE STREET PHOTOGRAPHER BOX
The presets can be used directly for jpg files. You can use them directly or modifying a little bit.
61 presets for your street photos!
