2 Polaroid presets for Lightroom.
Once again I have the pleasure to announce two new presets. I got a preset request from Georg who wanted to have a preset that makes the photos look like if they were taken with a polaroid camera. That neonish, blurry and sometimes old-gritty look is not that easy to accomplish in Lightroom but I gave it a try. This preset comes in two versions; one for photos that are mostly bright and one for the ones who are dark. Try these two on different photos and you’ll see which one is most suitable for you.

Hey there! These presets are great. As many people may know, they are not meant to be a “one click fix” for all images, but I think they are a good “foundation” to start with. From there, we can make subtle adjustments based on our image and personal tastes
Kudos to you for taking your time with these! They are great!
