How do I install my brushes?

Brushes are installed almost exactly like presets except that they go into the “Local Adjustment Presets” folder instead of the “Develop” folder. You can get step-by-step instructions to installing brushes here. We also have videos to watch on this page as well.

How do I know if I shoot RAW or jpeg images?

We have a great tutorial about this here. It shares how RAW and jpeg are different and what they offer you. Most people are shooting jpeg unless they are going into their camera to manually select RAW. Read more here about Raw vs jpeg!

Do you suggest RAW presets on jpeg pictures? Or jpeg presets on RAW pictures?

While many Photographers do this, we recommend that you stick with the correct presets for the file type you are editing. This really just makes your job easier! If you do choose to purchase a RAW set for a jpeg picture then please know that there may be tweaking involved. This is done often enough that we’ve made a video about customizing your presets. You can view that video here.

Are all of your downloads instant? Do I receive anything in the mail?

Yes, all of our downloads are instant. As soon as you purchase the products they will be sent to your paypal email address. You can download them and start using them right away! There is no wait on any of our products. They will not come in the mail.
