DESCRIPTION

Give your images the warm and cozy look of Halloween with our Halloween Vibes Lightroom Preset Pack! Lift shadows, warm up colors, and enhance the mood of the season.

Every preset pulls back the highlights, and most lower contrast while bringing the shadows and blacks down a step, made for pumpkin patches, costume portraits and dusky autumn fields. After you apply one, raise Exposure if a costume gets lost in the dark.

One zip holds the 10 presets as .xmp files, which work in Lightroom Classic, Lightroom on your computer and Lightroom on your phone, plus .dng versions for older releases of the mobile app, each in its own labeled folder, with 4 sample images to practice on and the PDF install guide.

Halloween Lightroom Presets · 10 Looks

Golden Fields and Rich Pumpkin Orange

Ten presets for autumn and Halloween photos, with warm tints, softer highlights and rich pumpkin oranges. They work in Lightroom Classic and in Lightroom on desktop and mobile.

Moody Cider

Moody Cider warms the whole frame and settles it into a darker, cozier tone. The pumpkin turns a deeper, richer orange, the leaves go a warmer olive and the hands and knees pick up a golden cast. Exposure does not change, and contrast rises only slightly.

Orange in Shadows and Highlights

An orange tint goes into both the shadows and the highlights, and the white balance warms a little. Shadows are pulled down hard while blacks lift slightly, so dark areas look deep but soft. Highlights come down by 35, and both tints are the strongest in the pack.

Richer Oranges, Darker Yellows

Oranges gain a little saturation and darken slightly, and yellows get darker, so pumpkins and fall leaves read rich rather than bright. Greens are left untouched in the color mix, and oranges shift slightly toward yellow.

Best on: pumpkin close-ups, hands and details, and autumn garden photos.

Cayenne Dust

Cayenne Dust tones down a bright field for a warm, dusty end-of-day look. The sky loses its glare and turns a soft gray, and the yellow sweater and scattered pumpkins lean toward a deeper golden orange. The white balance does not change, so the warmth comes from the color tints.

Low Contrast, Soft Highlights

Contrast drops a lot, the highlights are pulled down hard and the whites come down too, so the sky and bright clothing keep their detail. Shadows get a little darker for depth. Blacks barely move, and exposure stays where it is.

A Red Tint Up Top

A red tint goes into the highlights and a yellow one into the shadows, and oranges shift toward red, which gives skin and hair a warmer, coppery tone. Both tints are faint, and vibrance and saturation each rise slightly.

Best on: couples in a pumpkin patch, farm and field portraits, and fall engagement sessions.

Autumn Blaze

Autumn Blaze turns a green park into a fall scene. The grass and background shift from green to gold, the corduroy skirt gets a richer rust color and the long hair picks up warm red-orange highlights. Shadows and blacks both lift, which keeps the darker areas open.

Greens Pushed Toward Gold

Greens are shifted strongly toward yellow, darkened and muted, and yellows lean toward orange, which is what turns summer grass into autumn color. Contrast goes up while highlights and whites come down. The white balance moves slightly toward green and barely warms.

Bright, Glowing Skin

Oranges get a lot brighter, so skin glows in the low sun, and a red tint in the highlights adds warmth to backlit blond hair. Oranges also lose a little saturation, and a faint orange tint goes into the shadows.

Best on: hugs and candid moments, backlit portraits, and golden hour in the park.

Sweet Wheat

Sweet Wheat washes a scene in golden light. The leaves on the fence and trees turn honey-colored, the bright sky goes creamy, and the pumpkins, basket and the boy’s skin all warm up together. Its white balance shift is the warmest in the pack.

A Noticeably Warmer White Balance

The white balance warms noticeably, with a yellow tint in the shadows and an orange one in the highlights. Highlights are pulled down hard so a bright sky stays soft, and a little clarity adds texture. Contrast eases slightly, while the shadows, whites and blacks barely move.

Greens Turn to Honey

Greens shift strongly toward yellow, and yellows lean toward orange and darken, so summer foliage reads like late fall. Oranges and yellows gain a little saturation, and vibrance rises while overall saturation dips slightly.

Best on: kids at the pumpkin patch, harvest scenes, and outdoor family photos in fall.

Included – PHLEARN Soft OchreOriginal

Soft Ochre

Soft Ochre leans into late sun and warms the whole group scene. The dry grass and treeline turn a warmer gold, the orange cups get richer and the plaid shirts and denim take on a soft, sunlit tone. Highlights come down by 39, and the shadows get slightly darker.

Warm Light, Deeper Blacks

The white balance warms and contrast drops, while whites brighten and blacks go deeper, so the photo feels soft but not flat. A red tint goes into the shadows and an orange one into the highlights. The tone curve lifts the black point just slightly.

Greens Become Gold

Greens are pushed strongly toward yellow and blues are muted, so leaves and grass turn golden and everyone’s skin stays warm and healthy. Aquas and purples lose saturation too, and oranges shift a little toward red.

Best on: friends outdoors, camping and picnics, and group shots in late afternoon sun.

Orange Sandy

Orange Sandy adds depth and a warm cast to a bright, colorful portrait. The blacks in his striped shirt and in their hair get deeper, the pumpkins lean toward a redder orange and the white sweater stays clean. Contrast drops by 20, and the white balance does not change.

Deep Blacks, Open Shadows

Blacks are pushed down hard while the shadows lift, so dark clothing looks rich without losing detail. Highlights come down and an orange tint goes into the shadows. A faint orange tint goes into the highlights as well, and whites dip slightly.

Lighter, Warmer Skin

Oranges shift toward red and get brighter, which lights up skin, and blues are muted so jeans and navy fabric don’t compete. Oranges and yellows also lose a little saturation, so the warmth stays even.

Best on: couples and family portraits with pumpkins, pumpkin patch and farm stand photos, and bright, colorful fall setups.

They are made for your seasonal Halloween images. The presets give photos a warm, cozy Halloween look: they lift shadows, warm up colors and enhance the reds, golds and oranges of the season. They suit images that need a little brightening and a touch of warm color.

Are Lightroom Presets included in my PHLEARN PRO subscription?

Which version of Lightroom do I need?

The .XMP presets work in Lightroom Classic 7.3 and newer, in Lightroom on your computer and in Lightroom on your phone. For older versions of the mobile app, use the .DNG files in the download. We recommend the latest version.

How do I install Lightroom Presets?

In Lightroom Classic, open the Develop module, click the + in the Presets panel, choose Import Presets and select the .XMP files. The PDF install guide in your download covers Lightroom on your computer and your phone too, and every method is on our Lightroom Presets install guide.

I imported the pack, but I can’t see it.

The new group arrives collapsed and sits in alphabetical order. Scroll the Presets panel, find the group named after the pack and click its arrow.

Do I have to install the presets on my phone separately?

Not if you import them into Lightroom on your computer: within a few minutes they show up in Lightroom on any device signed in to the same Adobe account. If you use Lightroom Classic, import the .XMP files in the mobile app: open a photo, tap Presets, then Yours, then the three-dot menu and Import Presets.

Do the presets work on RAW and JPEG photos?

Yes. Every preset is built to work on both RAW and JPEG files, and each one can be adjusted after you apply it.

The preset looks too strong. What do I do?

Lower the Amount slider at the top of the Presets panel, then adjust White Balance and Exposure for that photo. Every photo starts from different light.

Do you offer refunds?

Because these are downloadable products, all sales are final and we are not able to offer refunds.
