Bright & Airy — 10 Lightroom Presets & LUTs

Bright & Airy lifts exposure and shadows, softens contrast and cleans up colour casts for the light, open look used in home, food, wedding and lifestyle photography. Whites stay white rather than turning grey, and skin tones stay natural.

Looks range from a crisp clean white to warm creamy and linen tones, pastel and blush tints and a fresh green for plants and gardens. Each comes as an XMP preset and a matching LUT.

1. Unzip the download

2. Lightroom Classic: Develop → Presets panel → + → Import Presets, then choose the XMP files

3. Photoshop: open an image in Camera Raw → Presets → Import Profiles & Presets

4. Video: load a .cube file as a LUT (Resolve LUT folder, Premiere Lumetri → Creative → Look, Final Cut Custom LUT)

5. Adjust exposure and white balance for each photo after applying a look

The XMP presets and the LUTs are built from the same look settings but applied by different engines, so results are close rather than identical. White balance shifts in the presets apply to JPEG, HEIC and TIFF files; set white balance by eye on raw files. Previews show the LUTs applied to DistroSource 3D renders, not photographs.
