Lightroom Secret – How to Create a Face Light Preset

In this tutorial, Certified Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Expert, Piet Van den Eynde, will show you how to create a face light preset using the Radial Filter in Lightroom Classic. I even learned TWO things when I watched this video!

If you struggle with getting the light just right in your people photos and then trying to edit them all to match later in Lightroom, this is the tip for you.

The issue with automating this process in Lightroom is that it doesn’t have any AI technology (if you want that you need to get Luminar AI). It is tricky to create one preset that will work for all your images with people because the faces are always in different places.

But Piet has a few handy tips that will help you make a set of LR presets that you can use to add a Face Light filter to any image and fine-tune it quickly for fast results. Let’s watch it now!
