COMPOSITION IS THE NEW BLACK
Video Tutorials
I believe composition is the best hidden treasure in the world of photography! Too often we forget our composition, but not anymore, it's time to take your photography to the next level!
... your teacher.
Alongside photography I have always had a passion for teaching, instructing, mentoring and coaching. I would love to drive you for better performance and motivate you to exceed you limits!
I have worked as a full time photographer for years, and there is one thing I can tell you in 100% honesty: My life, business, and creative thinking changed dramatically the day I decided to invest on my own education. And if there is one piece of advice I would give you, whether you are a beginner or not. That would be to start learning more from other people. And start it now!

During a wedding day, we might face several different light situations, and very rarely there’s just one click to fix them all. Therefore, I wanted to create presets specifically designed for different light situations. 3 color presets and 3 black-and-whites for Lightroom Classic.
Just adjust the exposure/contrast and you’re done!
You all know that hazy cinematic look with a soft hint of old times warmth and medium contrast? Meet your new best friend! This preset is especially effective for golden hour images, to bring up just enough of that magical light.
This preset works like a charm for all images taken during the blue hour. It includes just enough boost for that magical blue/purple light with a touch of darkness to seal the deal.
Sophisticated and soft. Not too extravagant and not too bold. This preset will make your images look unified with a dreamy, cinematic, warm and tasteful touch. Want more depth? Just adjust the contrast and it’s a wrap!
“If color doesn’t bring anything extra to the image, make it black-and-white.” This is my number one ride or die preset when I want to make my images black-and-white. And oh boy do I use this a lot!
My go-to black-and-white for intimate home stories and low light situations. Includes a lot of contrast, just bring up those highlights and you are good to go!
Ahh this one brings back memories! This was my go-to black-and-white for years! It is crispy and sharp, just enough contrast and a hint of warm pink. This was my favorite before I fell in love with grain.
Oh those black-and-whites!
We all love them, don’t we? For years, I struggled with my black-and-white editing, and thought just a one click in Photoshop would be enough. When I started to create my own BW-presets, a whole new world opened up to me. There’s just so many different moods, and feels you can create with BW’s and after polishing my favorite BW-presets, I have never looked back. This package includes 5 black-and-white-presets
+ 3 extra ones designed for Lightroom Classic.
