GINA & RYAN PHOTOGRAPHY GXR PRESETS PACK TWO
Over the years of editing photos shot in various lighting conditions, we’ve developed a system of presets and editing tools that handle light + color as it changes throughout the day. Our preset packs make it easier for light-driven photographers to find speed and consistency to their edits. GXR Presets are timeless, dynamic, and versatile; all packs feature warm subtle colors with rich skin tones, clean muted whites, earthy deep blacks, and a poppy contrasted finish that is sure to give your images a consistent signature look while you cruise through the editing process.
Pack Two is a refined preset pack built for speed. These color-based presets adjust for ill-mannered color and white balance situations while remaining consistent with the pack’s overall color, skin tones, and contrast tendencies. It also includes a tool kit with one-click dynamic contrast adjustments for speedy editing.
[8 presets, 12 adjustment presets, and 16 brushes]
+ 6 Color Presets (including a go-to preset with variations for harsh light and backlight, and additional presets to blush it, flame it, and mute it)
+ 2 Black & White Presets
+ Tool Kit: 12 one-click presets adjustments for dynamic contrast, lens correction, vignetting, adaptive noise reduction, grain, and reset options)
+ Brush Kit: 16 of our favorite brushes (whiten teeth, soften skin, paint sunset, etc.)
+ a Preset Manual detailing our editing process, workflow tips, preset descriptions, faqs, and installation instructions
(pack two’s before & after shots shown below use identical exposure + white balance for a one-click reveal)
GXR 01 // Go-To
This is the go-to preset that all of the other presets in pack two were built to complement. It handles most imagery really well, so we apply this preset at the beginning of the editing process and most of the time, all we’ll need is some exposure and white balance adjustments.
GXR 02 // Go-To Harsh
This soft preset is useful in high contrast situations – especially when harsh light crosses over the subject. It crushes highlights and boosts shadows all while retaining that poppy contrast.
GXR 03 // Go-To Backlit
This crispy preset is useful in backlit situations. It boosts the contrast and color which is especially helpful when you catch a bit of that glorious flare.
GXR 04 // Blush It
This preset brings out the rosé tones in images color dominated by yellow-green environments or by sun-drenched foliage. It gives the highlights and mid-tones a blush rosy twist, adding rich and warm chocolatey browns into any pale palette. (This preset emulates the colors found in pack one).
GXR 05 // Flame It
This warm, vibrant preset will breathe life back into any image where skin tones are drawn or color shades appear cool or lacking. Grassy afternoons with blue skies and mid-day sun? Handled. Overcast and gloomy days? They don’t stand a chance.
GXR 06 // Mute It
This preset cools those warm colors and forgives (overly) exaggerated skin tones. Use it to tame those overbearing pinks and oranges in tungsten-lit situations, and also to tone down those vibrant sun-drenched natural landscapes.
GXR Black & White Presets
Two black and white presets, one crispy and the other more soft and muted; both built to level up the intimate mood.
GXR Tools
There are 12 quick fix tools that we couldn’t live without. These tools manage dynamic range (notably our crush and crunch series) and can be applied to any GXR Preset. Also included is a shadow boost adjustment, lens corrections, vignetting, adaptive noise reduction, grain, and reset options.
