We love using presets in our photo editing workflow. Every time we make a new edit of one of our most beloved photos, we save a preset of the edits so that we can come back to it in the future and refine it for use on other photos. Presets make it easier to create a cohesive visual style for any collection of photographs. Like using our favorite films, a processing preset is a way to consistently recreate a certain artistic mood for your photographs.

The Quantum Collection has been an on-going project of ours to create a useful and beautiful set of visual styles for your photography. Our original preset pack was called Film Speck One (released on Lonely Speck) which included 102 presets based on all of our favorite photo edits of 2014. The Quantum Collection takes a new and improved approach to the presets with significantly more refinement and universality in the way the presets work.

Each of the presets in the The Quantum Collection are named after the subatomic particles that define our universe. As these particles are the fundamental building blocks of everything, the presets can be used for anything: portraits, landscapes, street, or whatever creative genre you love to shoot.

Every preset comes in varying levels of intensity and types. Each intensity level applies a stronger level of processing, and varying the preset type from standard to dynamic (DR) allows the preset to work with different light types, from soft flat light to high dynamic range light.

The Quantum Collection includes a total of 16 preset flavors, each with two types, standard and dynamic, and each type includes three different levels of intensity: standard, +1 and +2 for a total of 96 individual presets to meet every type of photographic look.

Here are some examples of a few flavors from The Quantum Collection:

Charm

Charm is made to mimic a heavily graded and processed cinematic film with strong hue shifts and toning. Bright oranges and reds become rich and deep while blues shift to a dark teal and cyan.

.

Down

Down is a high vibrance and punchy film look with violet shadows, saturated blues and warm orange highlights.

.

Gluon

Gluon is a contrasty low saturation film that brings attention to blues and greens while softening reds and oranges for a cool understated look.

.

Muon

Muon is another high-contrast desaturated film, this time with reduced greens, warm airy highlights and silver shadows.

.

.

Quark

Quark adds a quirky blend of colors to photos by painting shadows with a faded crimson and highlights with turquoise.

.

Strange

Strange looks as strange as it sounds. Green and purple hues contrast with each other in this unique and abnormally colored film look.

.

Tau

Tau is a beautiful film made for both landscapes and portraits. It’s easy on skin tones and earth tones while enhancing vibrance in blues and aquas.

.

.

Up

Up is a low-contrast soft look cinematic film with the classic cyan shadow and orange highlight shifts.

.

W

W is a monochrome preset that simulates the look of a yellow-green filtered black & white film. It darkens red and blue tones for a dramatic look.

.

Z

Z is an infrared-like monochrome film that washes out red tones to white and creates a dreamy high-contrast look.

.

There are 14 color and 2 monochrome presets total, each with 6 individual variations, for a total of 96 individual Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw presets.

The Quantum Collection also includes the latest version of Quantum Collection Tools Pack, a series of 3 simple-to-use tools to give your images that last final touch of polish. The tools include several universal preset modifiers that make adjustments to the contrast, dynamic range and contrast curve.

Tools Pack Preset Modifiers:

• Curve S/+/++/+++
• Contrast+/++/+++
• DR+/++/+++

The presets are made to modify any number of Lightroom or Camera Raw settings, but they won’t touch white balance, exposure, lens corrections, noise reduction or any local adjustments like graduated filters.

What the presets modify:

• Contrast
• Highlights
• Shadows
• White Clipping
• Black Clipping
• Tone Curve
• Clarity
• Saturation
• Vibrance
• Color Adjustments
• Split Toning
• Calibration

Here are some tips on using the presets:

• Before applying a preset, I recommend first adjusting your photo for exposure and white balance per your own taste.
• Some presets may need tweaking depending on your exposure. If the preset appears too bright or dark, tweak the Exposure slider until it suits your preferences.
• Presets should be just a starting point for your final processing, tweak those sliders to get the most out of your photos!
