Faded colors for light photos.

Phew, it's been a tough week at work and now it's already Friday. Sorry for my delayed update but I've just not had the energy to write a new article earlier this week. I'm sitting in my sofa with my laptop in my knees, watching CSI and developing a new preset... This multitasking ended up in a new preset called "Faded Colorness". It works best on pretty light photos and it's available in two versions; one with normal clarity and the other one with +100 clarity. Have a nice weekend, to all of you!

A lovely preset for wedding photography…

The presets keep coming in by mail! Recently I got a new preset from Brandon at x-equals. This preset was, until now, only available to people who signed up to x-equals newsletter. From today it's exclusively available for download here at presetsheaven. It's a very elegant and subtle one that works in many situations. For those who are into wedding photography, this preset is a must. Shots of the bride and bouquets - especially close-ups just look terrific! I've had the pleasure to be the photographer of two weddings. In this post I have chosen to show you two of my wedding shots as preview images. It really looks great and I strongly recommend you to try this on your photos.

Photos look great with the Sepia Chic Lightroom preset…

I'm in the middle of a restoration of my kitchen and almost all of the time I'm stuck there, working like a maniac to get it done. I still feel I have to give you guys some new posts and updates in between my kitchen project. I'm a big fan of RSS , twitter and newsletters and just love when I get updates from sites I follow. So with that in mind I believe you feel the same way as soon as you get an update notice from my site. Before I have to go back to my kitchen I give you the "Sepia Chic", one of Wonderlands latest free presets (got it by mail last week).

5 New free presets – Creative Catalyst

Nate from Wonderland has been a great contributor to this site since I started it. Last week he sent me an email with yet another zip-file including a couple of new presets. I didn't have the time to look at them then, but now when I have, I hereby give you 5 new presets called Creative Catalyst. They are the heart and soul of the Wonderland Preset Suite.

Boost your photos with these new presets.

Tonight I got mail from Victor with a preset as attachement in it! Victor wrote "CWP Boost Is a preset that "boosts" the picture, when you want to add more "drama" to it." I tried it on a photo I took in Denmark when I was on vacation earlier this year. As a before/Sooc photo, this one is perfect to try presets on. Basically all presets make great impact on this specific photo. That includes "CWP Boost" as well.

Lets kill the foggy feeling with a preset.

Yes, it’s a bottle of ketchup! :-) I was just browsing through some photos in my laptop when I found this close-up shot of a bottle of ketchup. Sometimes when you look at your photos, you get blind and miss…
