A lot of people ask me how I have created a cohesive Instagram feed. I like to leave my pictures in their natural state – no photoshop – just as natural as they are. To make my feed cohesive, I add the same color filter to them so they all blend together and are aesthetically pleasing. I decided to create some custom presets to help you all create cohesive feeds.
Note – My presets are made specifically for Adobe Lightroom Classic CC via the computer. I recommend uploading the natural images with no filters on them. If you upload items with filters, they may alter the images in a bad way. Please download Adobe Lightroom Classic CC and upload your raw images to get started on editing. After you apply the presets, you may/may not want to add a few extra tweaks to your images. That is entirely up to you. Due to the nature of our products (non-tangible digital goods), it is not possible to “return” a product and ensure that the product is no longer used. Therefore we do not offer to refund after a digital download purchase has been made. Please see the end of the post with preset importing instructions.
Happy Editing!!
The Unit Preset
If you follow me, then you know I refer to my family as “The Unit”. When you think of family, you think of a warm loving environment. That was the inspiration behind this present, which gives photos the warm tone.

Sunscreen Shorty Preset
My daughter is obsessed with applying sunscreen, so she was nicknamed “Sunscreen Shorty”. If you have ever applied sunscreen, you know it gives a white overcast over your skin. Sunscreen Shorty is the inspiration behind this preset.

Melly Sandiego Preset
I have always loved to travel and I created a personal hashtag so my travel posts are easily accessible. My hashtag is #MellySandiego – clever huh lol. Since this preset is my travel/beach life preset, I made this one with vivid poppin colors. When you think of a beach vacation, you think of bright and vibrant colors.

I love this preset. This is the way I like to edit my images – giving them a blueish/gray tone. This preset is cool and edgy.
