Settings for WARM and NATURAL editing in Lightroom (in detail!)

I’m sharing my settings for creating images that are really warm and natural in Adobe Lightroom CC! I love golden tones and the happiness that warmth brings to images. Let’s talk through all the different settings Lightroom offers (including exposure, contrast, split toning, curves, hue/saturation/luminance sliders, noise, lens corrections, radial filters, clone, heal and more) to explain their uses. I’ll share why I’ve chosen the settings I have and how they work together to correct colors and create this tone. This is the base preset that I use on the large majority of my images with small tweaks to correct for exposure, white balance, and consistent skin tones.
