How to correct red and green colour casts in Lightroom / HSL and Camera Calibration
I think most portrait photographers would agree with me when I say that the dealing with colour casts coming off a red brick wall and green grass are are a classic pain in the butt. To be honest, most of the time when I shoot I like to position my subjects away from potential colour correction headaches - but sometimes the brick wall is irresistible and a shooting in a forest is always so worth it.
When editing a portrait session in Lightroom, I used to rely on using adjustment brushes to alter saturation, tint, temperature, and add a neutralising colour to specific areas, but this is time consuming and only feasible for a small number of hero shots.

Clean Denim- Lightroom / Photoshop Preset for Fashion and Lifestyle Photography
Clean Denim is a crisp, cool toned preset for Lightroom and Photoshop. It's pared back minimalist feel, desaturated blues, and clean tones make it perfect for photographing anything from clothing labels, street style and yes- it makes denim look so good!
There are 3 versions of this preset:
CLEAN DENIM : the 'regular' version
CLEAN DENIM - : reduced effect, more subtle edit. You'll notice less desaturation and less coolness in the tones, and less highlight/shadow fade.
CLEAN DENIM + : more dramatic effect. There will be increased contrast and clarity for more of a punchy look and more texture in clothing. There will be more colour shifts and desaturation.
