Editing with Holiday Bokeh Presets for Lightroom

Using Bokeh Presets in Lightroom

Editing with the Pretty Presets Holiday Bokeh Collection

Ring in the Holiday spirit this year with a brand new and wonderfully festive Lightroom preset collection - Introducing the new Holiday Bokeh collection for Lightroom!

Get ready because you’re in for a real treat.  We are about to take a little peek inside the new Holiday Bokeh collection.  That’s right, it might be frowned upon to peek inside your presents before the Holidays but that doesn’t mean we aren’t going to let you take a quick look inside our festive new collection!

With our new Holiday Bokeh Collection for Lightroom you will enjoy 18 beautiful bokeh presets with varying festive looks to add the perfect finishing touch to any Holiday image.  That’s right, it’s now easier than ever to add dazzling, creamy and twinkly bokeh to your images with just one click of your mouse in Lightroom.

How to Use Bokeh Lightroom Presets

Whether you want to add a little whimsy, tiny twinkling lights, large blurred bokeh or something in between, you will find it in this custom holiday bokeh collection.  Did we mention you can choose from multi-color lights, red & green and even vintage white?  Yes, we thought it felt a lot like Christmas morning, happily decorating our images with all of these magical bokeh presets too!

If you know Pretty Presets, you know that this new collection is super fun and custom created to make your editing life a whole lot easier while adding a beautiful joyful look to your images.  Christmas or Holiday mini’s?  No problem!  Want to add a magical holiday touch to a few family photos from your session?  We have you covered!

You can have it all this season and add a little extra cheer to your photos with the Holiday Bokeh Collection from yours truly, Pretty Presets!

Now lets take a look at a few of our holiday bokeh presets in action!

Holiday Bokeh Edit #1:

We added Vintage Bokeh 2 to this image for instant Holiday cheer!

This edit was incredibly easy and fun, just like the others.  To add a whimsical touch we applied the Festive Bokeh 3 preset.  Are you having fun yet?  Because we are!

Holiday Bokeh Edit #3:

I know you guys are itching to dig into the new collection yourself, but before you do…we have one last fun “before and after” for you.  We didn’t think it was possible to make this image any cuter than it already was.  But with the Multi Bokeh 3, we accomplished it in a breeze!

Tips for Customizing your Holiday Bokeh Presets

To get the best results from your Holiday Bokeh Presets, here are some tips to keep in mind:

  • Remove bokeh (radial filter pins) from certain areas of the photo, such as bokeh that falls on top of your subject or other main areas of interest in your image.
  • Consider the depth of field of your image and where the bokeh would look the most natural.  For example, if your subject is photographed indoors in front of a window, the bokeh may look most natural if it is coming from outside (behind the window).  To achieve this depth of field effect, you should erase all bokeh except for what is showing through the window.
  • For best effect, try not to compete with existing bokeh or holiday lights in your image.

    We hope you have fun playing with these new presets just as much as we did making them for you!  Enjoy your new Holiday Bokeh collection for Lightroom!
