Feel like your photos never stand out in a sea of action sports photography?
You’re not alone and you’re not doing anything wrong.

PRESET EDIT
Why use presets, and why are mine unique to all the other ones out there?
Unlike typical presets, mine are specifically designed without altering exposure or contrast. Why?
Because every photo is unique—different lighting conditions, camera settings, and subjects mean presets that adjust highlights, shadows, and contrast often fail to translate effectively from one photo to another. By leaving these settings untouched, my presets:
Ensure no overblown highlights or crushed shadows.
Offer pro-level colour grading and tonal adjustments, allowing you to quickly dial in each edit with minimal tweaking.
This ensures maximum versatility and consistency across all your action sports photography—whether you're shooting MTB, BMX, skateboarding, or snowboarding.
Plus, in the tutorial videos, I walk you through exactly what these presets are changing, so you know precisely how they work. Unlike other preset packs where you’re left guessing, I break down each adjustment so you can truly understand the process and apply these techniques to your own edits.
