Pretty Presets & Actions 2023 Lightroom Scholarship Winner

Congratulations to our 2023 Lightroom Essay Scholarship Winner!

We received so many well-crafted essays written by some very talented students from around the world.  It was a pleasure to read all of the creative and informative essays about Lightroom that were submitted to us.

We were so impressed by the incredible submissions we received -- there were many favorites, and let me tell you, it was VERY difficult to narrow it down to a single winner.

However, ultimately, our Pretty Presets Team selected our 9th scholarship winner.

All of us at Pretty Presets and Actions would like to give a BIG CONGRATULATIONS to.....Meiling Menin!  Meiling is a high school senior at White Oaks Secondary School in Ontario, Canada, and will be pursuing Film Studies at Toronto Metropolitan University in the Fall.  Her biggest passions include all sorts of visual arts, especially drawing, sculpting, photography, and film. 

We were so impressed with Meiling's well-written tutorial on "How to Edit Photos to Look Cinematic in Lightroom" and the fantastic edit created along the way.  Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us Serena, and we wish you great success as you progress in your educational endeavors and beyond!!!

We also wanted to give a big THANK YOU to all of the fantastic Colleges, Universities, High Schools, and Scholarship Websites that are so kind to list our scholarship and offer it to their students as a resource to help cover their higher education expenses.  Our scholarship would not be a success without you!
