Dramatic Presets

Here I have posted a few examples of how presets can add extra creativity to your work. Included below are presets from the Wonderland  Presets 3.0 collection. BW Moody is just one of 28 black and white presets included in the collection. I really like how it adds contrast to this photo.

Creative Catalyst 30 has definitely made an impact with it's changes to tone. Wonderland Presets includes 60 Creative Catalyst presets (Defined: A creative agent that provokes or speeds significant change or action. These are presets that apply unique creative effects. These are the heart and soul of Wonderland Presets).

Color Isolate Red + Portrait is not a preset that first comes to mind for this type of photo, but it really jumped out at me.  There are 16 Color Isolate presets in all and just as the name implies they work to isolate specific colors and turn every other color black and white.  The Color isolate + portrait presets will isolate a specific color plus skin color and turn all other colors black and white.

Wonderland Presets 3.0 Expanding Creativity

Shot with the thrifty fifty (Canon 50mm 1.8) on a cloudy day. The out of camera shot was great, but it doesn't hurt to have options. I really like the 4th to the right.

Taxi Photo Made with Wonderland Preset

 

Thanks Nate - your presets really helped me take my post-production to another level - and are a huge timesaver. Frequently you save me a trip to Photoshop completely.

I'm not in the habit of endorsing products, because putting your name on something means something - Nate your presets deliver, they're worth every penny in the time I save.

-In A New York Minute
New York City: I must have shot 1,000 images of NYC taxis in three days. What really stands out for me in this photo is the sense of movement and urgency. 


Vincent Versace has said that just because we take still photos that doesn't mean what we photograph isn't in motion. I could not agree more. 

Doug was nice enough to tell me about his Photoshop User Magazine Cover Photo and to mention his use of Wonderland in the post processing of this photo. As an early adopter of Adobe Lightroom Doug was also an early customer of mine and encouraged me to add to and further develop my presets.  

Doug used Wonderland Preset: Creative Catalyst 48 as part of his post processing of his photo “In A New York Minute” 

Thanks Doug for your kind words. You are an amazing artist.

Guess the Original


Can you spot the original Raw photo? Ok, so this shouldn't be too difficult. I thought it would be fun to showcase some of the more creative presets within Wonderland's collection.  Most of the time I am content applying a "general correction" type preset that enhances a photo, but does not go overboard. You can't deny that it is fun to be able to flip through these presets just to see what else is possible.  That's exactly what I have done here. I started off with a basic enhancement preset such as "A-Game 2." After that I moved down the list into the Creative Catalyst section to see just how far we could take this simple photograph. 

Presets used: A-Game 2, Creative Catalyst 19, Creative Catalyst 32, Creative Catalyst 51, Creative Catalyst 56.

Bridal

Bridal: This was shot mid day with harsh light. I used a silver reflector for fill. I actually like the original very much, but it's always nice to have options. The large aperture and long length of my lens added a nice bokeh to this portrait.

Photo info: 1/2500 sec, f2.8, ISO 100, 150mm (70-200mm)
Preset: A-Game WB 1
