The Presets I Use For My Instagram Feed

I'm asked pretty frequently about the presets I use on my Instagram, and I honestly forget the names of them most of the time, and then forget to answer, lol. I literally had to go trough my emails and find my receipts for all of these when I bought them, in order to get this post together, because I couldn't remember. So here is a newly updated post, sharing the presets I use! I use 4 different types of presets depending on the photo, and here they are:

 

Nicole Balsamo Presets. I've used these the most! Comes with a total of 6 presets.

Tashie Presets - SOHO Pack. I actually found the presets by Tashie because I use the "SOHO" story filter on instagram, and I was like, "I wish these were an actual preset that I could use on my feed"... and what do ya know... here we are, lol. The instagram story filters allow you to go to the page of the actual creator, and there was Tashie and her presets!!

So obviously, depending on the photo and lighting, will determine which preset I use. The same preset does not work well for EVERY photo. And while in Lightroom, I do play around with the saturation, brightness, luminance, etc, after applying which preset I'm using. If you want to look a little more tan, you go to color, then mix, click the orange circle, and slide the luminance down to the left.
