"I’m obsessed with these presets. You get so much in one pack — the range of options feels endless. The edits are true-to-life and work beautifully in almost any lighting. I also love the extra actions; the softening feature for the face was perfect for smoothing out small blemishes. Truly, wow — Ro Birkey is a genius. I’m literally going to re-edit my favorite shoots, they’re that good.”
"RO, what a beautiful melange of cinematic and film inspired tones that weave together sooo well. Applying one of these just dips the image i'm editing in nostalgia, the warmth these bring is sooo homey. they are packed with feeling and the actions are just the cherry on top. I've fallen more in love with editing simply by adding these to my toolbelt. and the best part, they are GOOD across the board in every single lighting situation- outdoors, in home, flash, full sun...theres a preset for each that will pack a punch + elevate your work."

Your Linger presets are more than edits—they’re a feeling, a mood, a story waiting to unfold.
This guidebook gently unfolds the essence and strengths of each preset, offering insight into the tones and emotions they evoke.
It’s an invitation to approach your edits with intention, to linger in the moments you capture, and to let each preset guide the story your images are meant to tell.
They are .xmp files that can be imported into Lightroom Classic Desktop, Lightroom CC and Camera Raw

My goal was to create a film inspired pack while still being versatile and timeless. There are stylized ones, minimal ones and a few that are in the middle. With all presets in Lightroom, I love that you can adjust the strength of them upon applying which can definitely help!
They have been tested and work great with Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm and Film Cameras!
Yes! Though you do need to have Lightroom Desktop in order to use these presets and export them to Lightroom Mobile. A download guide is included with the pack for getting the presets onto LR mobile after you import them to your LR desktop.
It's hard to truly replace film but my hope in creating this preset pack is to emulate as much as possible as well as having a way to marry your digital work more closely with film captures. Much like film they all have their own personalities and reflect the charm and nuance of film in the way the colors appear as well as grain and contrast.
