FEATURED REVIEWS

“I'm really impressed by how versatile this is. I've put it through its paces – studio shoots, beach photos, even a wedding – and it always gives my photos that extra something. L&T 1 is my absolute favourite, it adds a clean, polished look that I love. I can definitely see myself using it for some commercial work tool.
My top picks are L&T 1, 3, 4 and 6 (that black and white one is fantastic, well done!). Number 2 is a bit too contrasty for me, and L&T 5 is the one I used the least. It made my photos look flat and washed out, to the point where I’d probably delete it from the set.
As for the tools: Lens correction is a handy feature to have. Picture Perfect is great too, although the background darkening option is a bit heavy-handed at the bottom. Otherwise, it's a really good image enhancer. The Perfect Skin and Eye Enhancer is a really nice touch – it's great having it all bundled in with Picture Perfect.
Backlight Fix is excellent, it adds a lovely clean boost. I also like the blue and green tones tool, especially for darker photos. You don't really notice much difference on brighter images, but I like that it doesn't make the colours look unnatural.”

“Lovely natural tones, especially when paired with Green tone 1.The speed and efficiency when using the green and blue tone tools is incredible. Makes life much easier and workflow faster. I could see me using this preset combo on most scenarios, however, i'm not sure how it compares to Alethia - which is my usual go to for natural tones.”
-
“I like that the presets have a variety of tones to choose from and how you can adjust blues and greens, which tend to be troublesome for photographers a lot of times. My Grad for senior portraits school colors are green and that part of the preset really came in handy. The perfect picture feature was cool too, especially if you’re need slight tweaks and don’t plan on doing a full in depth edit on the face.”
-
“Fabulous true to colour presets, but with the ability to dial in those enhancements that make an image pop. The Picture Perfect tool is insane - love being able to control the amount on the slider to get just the right look. The Blue & Green Tone tools are so great as these are often the colours that are harder to get right whilst maintaining a stylised feel. I can see these being invaluable for some of my product and brand work.”

“Okay my favorite part of this is the Picture Perfect mask in the toolset-it adds that little bit of oomph to the shadows and it's perfect! Second favorite part is definitely the B&W color profile-it's so smooth and the contrast is literal perfection.
When testing these on previous weddings (indoor & outdoor) I am astounded at the one click edit in comparison to the amount of adjustments I had to make previously. This set makes it look so timeless and classic-the true to color L&T 01 is my absolute favorite. I would use literally use this on everything. This set also lends particularly well to detail set ups and close up portraits.
Backlight fix is also being added to my favorites for sure. I expose for my subject so using this as a one-click tool to fix is "chef's-kiss””
