By now you all know that I have a love for bright happy colors and that many of my photos sport a preset the emphasizes this love. Well today I am going to share with you my "recipe" for that preset. I has taken awhile to perfect and I still change it up a little to customize it for each photo but this is what I usually start with.
Temp +36
Tint -29
Exposure +49
Fill light 14
Blacks 7
Contrast -25
Clarity +45
Vibrance -5
Saturation +3
Then I play with the curves a little bit.
Highlights -14
Lights +10
Darks +21
Shadows +2
Then Hues and Saturation
Hue
Blue -13
Aqua +53
Saturation
Blue +59
Green +27
Split toning
Highlights
Hue 232
Saturation 10

And Sharpen just a little.
And of course Lens Vignetting -100
Lastly Blue Primary

And there you have it, my recipe for "Bright and Beautiful" one of my favorite presets.
All of these photos have that preset and then a little tweeking to make them just right.
