I know how hard it can be to find a good Lightroom mobile preset.
Especially a free one.
I have tried so many that I just didn’t end up using because I had to make tons of additional edits so I decided to try and make some on my own.
After taking a poll in my stories over at the_afterword on Instagram, so many Bookstagrammers said they would benefit from these.
So I’m sharing with you today for FREE.
Instagram itself is a highly visual platform and the same can be said for us reading enthusiasts (aka “Bookstagrammers”). Aesthetics for your feed can feel important since we like sharing not only our current reads but like taking pretty photos too!
All of your photos don’t have to be staged or perfectly arranged in your layout.
In fact, my spontaneous photos tend to perform the best!
But you can give your photos a little boost with this mixed preset bundle.
My freebie Bookstagram Preset Bundle has one preset from these 5 curated preset collections.
Download the bundle by filling out the form below and take these five presets out for a test drive:
- Crawdads Sing -warm tones with peachy pops
- Stars Hollow – cozy, autumn hues to pair nicely with your cup (or two) of coffee
- Beachy Bookclub – blue undertones bring out all the cool water hues
- The Epic Saga – cool, moody vibes
- Happy Holidaze – bright, light, and bringing out all those pops of color
How to install the preset:
If you’re unsure how to install this preset, I have posted HERE an easy to follow tutorial to get you through it step by step (with video!).
I want to adjust the preset:
Sometimes you might find that something doesn’t look right when you apply the preset, whether it’s the brightness or color.
Every photo setting is different and lighting isn’t always the same so you might need to adjust your preset to your liking.
If you need a bit of help, here’s some quick tips:
1. The preset made my photo too bright. How do I adjust it?
Adjust the following settings in your Mobile Lightroom App:
- Light > Exposure > Decrease
- Light > Shadows > Decrease
2. The preset made my photo too dark. How do I adjust it?
Adjust the following settings in your Mobile Lightroom App:
- Light > Exposure > Increase
- Light > Shadows > Increase
3. The preset made my photo too warm/cold. How do I adjust it?
Adjust the following settings in your Mobile Lightroom App:
- Color > Temp > Increase/Decrease (more YELLOW for warmer tones, more BLUE for cooler tones)
If you use these presets, don’t forget to tag me (@the_afterword or #afterwordpresets) in your photos so that I can check out your beautiful insta feeds!
