Preset pack · €19,99 one-time
Lightroom presets from the masters
17 presets for Lightroom and Capture One, each based on the visual style of an influential photographer. A preset is a starting point. Import, adjust, make it yours.
Each preset gives you a solid foundation: the right colour temperature, the right contrast distribution, the feel of the film stock. From there you adjust for your own photo, your own light, your own taste.
- 17 presets in .xmp (Lightroom), .costyle (Capture One) and .cube (LUT), each in four strengths
- Per preset: name, camera, film stock and description of the look
- Download link via email, valid 90 days
- For any camera: the camera and film listed per preset describe the original, the preset works on your own raw and jpeg files
Names are our own interpretations, no official collaboration with the photographers.
The presets
The closer your photo is to the style of the source, the less you need to adjust. But every preset works as a starting point for any photographer.
Anne Laatmijnvis
Based on the style of Annie Leibovitz
Dramatic and warm. Rich colours in the Kodachrome tradition, wide tonal range and a cinematic quality that elevates portraits.
Ad van Aalst
Based on the style of Ed van der Elsken
Raw, heavy and up close. High-contrast black and white with coarse grain, night streets and available light, just like van der Elsken shot them.
Henri Grijsaard
Based on the style of Harry Gruyaert
Kodachrome at its most electric. Deep red planes, electric blue and golden yellow warmth. Gruyaert made colour a compositional element, this preset does too.
Diana Luchtbus
Based on the style of Diane Arbus
Direct, clinical and uncomfortably clear. Daylight flash, medium contrast and fine grain, the face has nowhere to hide.
Ida Molenaar
Based on the style of Aida Muluneh
Bold, graphic and uncompromising. Cobalt blue against terracotta, bold primaries as building blocks. Strong split-tone for maximum visual impact.
Ellen Scheller
Based on the style of Alan Schaller
Extreme contrasts, suffocating shadows and cool silver tones. Modern urban street, high-ISO aesthetic, a circle of light in a sea of black.
Jan Meijerts
Based on the style of Joel Meyerowitz
Airy, luminous and true to nature. Kodachrome warmth without exaggeration, golden skin tones, clean sky, open shadows. The quality of light as subject.
Gerrie Grotewijn
Based on the style of Garry Winogrand
Classic New York street photograph. Punchy midtones, full tonal range and the grainy character of Tri-X at 28mm, energetic, candid, unpolished.
A good preset is a starting point.
Start with these 17, adjust for your own photo, your own light, your own taste.
Lex Spinrag
Based on the style of Alex Webb
Tropical heat in a single frame. Extreme saturation, deep shadows with colour, layers of magenta and orange. For those who dare: colour as chaos and beauty at once.
Harry Kwartier van Bussum
Based on the style of Henri Cartier-Bresson
The full tonal register. Clean, balanced and timeless. Fine grain, open shadows, crisp highlights, just enough contrast for a decisive moment.
Martijn Paar
Based on the style of Martin Parr
Hyper-saturated, brutal and a little too much, exactly as intended. Ring flash, Velvia and a sharp eye for the mundane. Green becomes neon green, red becomes fire red.
Mark Marie Allen
Based on the style of Mary Ellen Mark
Human, honest and warm. Slightly warm-brown B&W tonality, open shadows, high local texture. Documentary photography that preserves its subject's dignity.
Nancy Goudse
Based on the style of Nan Goldin
Faded, raw and intimate. Direct flash on consumer film, lifted blacks, warm yellow-green shadows, slightly overexposed skin. The aesthetic of the personal diary.
Sally Jammer
Based on the style of Saul Leiter
Painterly, soft and pervasively warm. Muted colours with a red or orange accent, lifted blacks, low clarity, like looking through steamed glass on a rainy day.
Stefan Hela
Based on the style of Steve McCurry
Warm, deep and pronounced. The Kodachrome palette at its richest: golden skin tones, saturated blues, controlled highlights. Travel photography that makes the world more beautiful.
Wesley van de Anderen
Based on the style of Wes Anderson
Pastel-hued and symmetrical in spirit. Lifted blacks, soft peach in the shadows, cool cyan in the highlights. Faded film stock as aesthetic statement.
Willie Eierdoos
Based on the style of William Eggleston
Democratic and deep. The American everyday in full colour, waxy reds, saturated greens, a rich sky. No heroism, no irony. Just light on things that are there.

Preset Pack: how it works
The Preset Pack includes 17 presets for Lightroom and Capture One, each built around the editing style of well-known photographers. Import them directly into your software and use them as a starting point for your own edits. Useful when you want to explore a specific look without building it from scratch.
What's in the pack and how to import
The 17 presets cover a range of styles: high-contrast street photography, soft portrait grading, filmic colour shifts and more. Each preset is named after the type of look it produces, so you can quickly find something that fits a particular shoot.
In Lightroom, import via the preset panel (right-click, import presets). In Capture One, use the Styles panel. The files are split by application, so you only add what you actually use.
A starting point, not a finished result
A preset sets a direction. Exposure, white balance and the specific camera body you shoot with all affect how a preset lands on a given RAW file. Expect to make adjustments after applying one.
If you want a clearer picture of your tonal distribution before picking a style, the Colour Analysis tool breaks down the colour balance in your image. That context helps you choose a preset that actually works with the light you captured.
Frequently asked questions
Do these presets work on JPEG files?
They do, but the results are less predictable than on RAW. A JPEG already has the camera's own processing baked in, which means adjustments can push the image too far more quickly.
Can I edit a preset from this pack and save it as my own?
Yes. Apply the preset, adjust the sliders to taste, then save it as a new preset under your own name. The original in the pack stays untouched.
How do I get consistent results when the same preset looks different on each photo?
That's normal behaviour. A preset applies fixed values, and your images vary in exposure and white balance. Treat the preset as a rough starting point and do a quick per-image correction on exposure and highlights before fine-tuning further.
