If you’re interested in the photography, blogging, or the creative world, chances are you’ve heard the term Lightroom Presets thrown around before. But what actually is a Lightroom preset?
Let’s start with the basics: Lightroom is a powerful photo editing program from Adobe, & comes in the same package as Photoshop. However, Lightroom is very user friendly, & easy to use once you know your way around.
Lightroom also offers a 100% free mobile app which you can download for both Android and iOS. When you open the app, you can import & organize your photos from your phone, edit them, & then export them back to your photos to upload wherever you wish.
