What is a Lightroom Preset?
Commonly also referred to as filters, a preset is a saved collection of editing adjustments that render your image in a certain style or look. It adjusts multiple settings at the click of a button instead of manually adjusting one slider at a time (Ex. exposure, contrast, colour, etc). A Lightroom Preset specifically is a saved collection of editing adjustments for use with Adobe Lightroom Mobile, & updated Desktop Lightroom CC.
Do I Have to Pay for Lightroom?
No, you don't! Adobe offers a FREE Mobile App available for both iPhone & Android. Note that not all of the features are accessible in the free version but all our presets are compatible across free/paid Lightroom versions.
You can also download the app to some laptops and tablets for easier use.
Can I Edit/Alter/Change the look of the Preset Once it's Applied to my Image?
Yes! All presets are fully adjustable! There’s no worry if you need to adjust the contrast, sharpness, exposure & so forth! We do our best to make our presets as one-click magic as we can but alas not all lighting conditions and image qualities are made alike! For optimal results make sure your phone’s camera or DSLR are shooting at a nice image size and exporting in JPEG. Our presets are designed for the everyday user in mind, no need to worry about figuring your way around RAW shooting & editing. That being said our presets will work with any image type including RAW & PNG.
You can find our tutorial video here.
Can I Edit Photos Taken on my iPhone in Lightroom?
Yes! You can edit any image type in lightroom with the free app available through Google Play or the Apple Store.
Compatibility?
All of our presets are compatible with PC, MAC, iPhone & Android. Keep in mind that Lightroom Mobile uses a different preset file type than Lightroom Classic for Desktop and will have a different installation process. Not compatible with old versions of Desktop Lightroom pre-2018.

If you've gone looking for @stoneandflintpresets on Instagram you've probably noticed it's disappeared. It became silly to me to run two separate Instagram accounts for the same business and will be featuring content for everything Stone + Flint Co. from my main account @stoneandflint going forward! I thank you for your patience and understanding. Sometimes we stretch ourselves too thin in the name of our business, and need to make choices and streamline our systems in order to function more seamlessly for your benefit in future.
