A COLLABORATION WITH KATCH STUDIOS

Kat Gill has a keen sense for pulling together juxtaposing elements in her images to create a powerful and balanced intimacy. So when deciding what direction to take our collaboration I gave her as much frame as possible to play in so she could lead the way. What we ended up with is a charmingly versatile pack of presets that swoon regardless of how or where you shoot. Boudoir and Wedding photographers will be particularly pleased with this pack as they focus on rich and creamy warmth that flatters skin tones both indoors and outdoors. You’ll also get a custom Skin Smoothing Brush for clarifying any unexpected problem areas while giving your images an ultra-polished look. And to round out the pack, we’ve thoughtfully designed presets for studio and indoor sessions that offer bold yet soft natural tonality while still bringing plenty of mood.

___

KAT Presets consists of 6 color presets, 2 BW presets, and 1 custom Skin Smoothing Brush.

Before and after images below demonstrate how each preset manipulates an image with identical white balance and exposure.

*Please note that the custom Skin Smoothing Brush is compatible with Lightroom 4 or later and Adobe Camera Raw, but IS NOT compatible with Lightroom CC. Installation instructions below.

**These presets are created for RAW images only and work with Lightroom 4, 5, 6, CC 2015, Lightroom Classic CC, Lightroom CC and Adobe Camera Raw CS6 or later.

***These are Desktop Presets(not Mobile Presets).

KAT 1 - Indoor

This is my signature indoor preset. Its soft warmth and muted highlights have a touch of contrast and make it an absolute go-to for most boudoir, studio portraits, and pre-wedding bridal photos.

KAT 2 - Indoor

Kat 2 - Indoor is like the cool sister preset to Kat 1 - Indoor and is ideal for keeping whites a bit more true while dialing down the warmth.

KAT 3 - Indoor

With an overall glowy warmth that looks wonderful on skin without bringing on redness, Kat 3 - Indoor is superb for boudoir, reception photos, and a variety of tricky indoor settings.

KAT 4 - Indoor/outdoor

Kat 4 - Indoor/outdoor is a super capable liaison between my indoor and outdoor presets. It’s punchy, it’s contrasty, and it’s up to the task for editorial work, bold portraits, and indoor wedding ceremonies.

KAT 5 - Outdoor

As an all-around outdoor preset, KAT 5 - Outdoor carries rich reds, minty greens, and aqua blues. With lovely warm skin tones that don’t over-pull redness, I love to use this for bridals and outdoor lifestyle sessions in a variety of situations.

KAT 6 - Outdoor

Kat 6 - Outdoor is warm, moody, and excellent for putting off a little more glow. This preset is a magic wand for tricky lighting situations like dense forests, fading dusk, and backlit moments. You will love this in most outdoor applications.

KAT 7 - BW

This is my signature black and white with a focus on clean muted highlights with a hint of contrast.

KAT 8 - BW Mood

Using Kat 7 - BW as a foundation, I then turned up the attitude with contrast and grain to make this preset both fun and effective for more artistic shots or anytime I want a little more drama.
