Street Etiquette SE3 / Street style- how to emulate in Lightroom
"Embodying the look and feel of Street Etiquette's work and inspiration, this pack accentuates dark and gritty tones, as well as deep and bold colors that are fitting for an array of occasions."
Street etiquette x VSCO pack consists of 3 presets. SE1 and SE2 have more dramatic colour shifts, faded shadows, and have a strong 'instant film' look.
SE3 is the the preset that I use most often- it is a high contrast dynamic look with deep blacks, slight desaturation, and clean highlights which looks great with both darker scenes and bright high key images. I think it works well for fashion, street photography, and lifestyle images.
Bunbury, Western Australia: Photo Diary
I spent a week in Bunbury, a major town 2hrs south of Perth in Western Australia. I had intended to use my solitary week going for runs, working on my Masters coursework, and exploring the region with my camera, but my laziness won over my good intentions in the end. I left it to the last sunset and the last morning to explore the beach that was within stumbling distance from my serviced apartment. I'm not sure what the name of the beach is, but it's on the North side of Koombana Drive.

VSCO Cam Subtle Fade M5 inspired Preset- how to create in Lightroom
VSCO : "The M Series: Subtle Fade pack evokes the vintage hues of the 70s and is available for purchase within your VSCO Cam photo app. These desaturated and mellow presets are ideal for urban environments and portraits."
I love the M5 for bright, high key scenes. It has this effect of creating a transparent feel to the image, as if you're looking at a projector slide. If you've used VSCO M5 on photos of people you may have noticed that it can be a very flattering preset for skin tones. I also love the moody analogue film look it gives to landscapes and still life.
Like I tried to do with the VSCO Cam A6 preset- I wanted to take the qualities of VSCO Cam M5 preset and adapt those to Lightroom editing of higher resolution images.
