Golden Gaze
Before
Golden Gaze
A smile, warmer.
The skin becomes smoother and more luminous, with a golden glow that still looks real. Lips keep their natural colour, and the smile gets a little brighter, just as it was in the moment.
The eyes speak first.
Golden Gaze finds the eyes and brings back their colour, their depth and that small spark of light. The whites stay clean and natural, never bright white, never fake.
Before
Golden Gaze
Character shines.
On textured skin, lines and beards, Golden Gaze adds light to the eyes and warmth to the skin. Every line keeps its story, only brighter.
Every portrait here started with Golden Gaze. Now, make it yours:
Glowing skin. Living eyes.
The preset I use on my close-up portraits. Smoother, luminous skin. Eyes full of colour and spark. They say the eyes are the window to the soul. Golden Gaze is how I open it.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Not exactly, and that's a good thing. Every photo has its own light, its own camera settings and its own moment. Apply the preset and set the amount first. Then adjust the exposure, the white balance, the highlights and the shadows. The guide shows you how I do it.
-
Yes. Each preset comes in two versions: one for RAW files, one for JPEG and phone photos. Both work in the Lightroom app on iPhone and Android, and in Lightroom Classic 12.3 or Lightroom 6.3 and newer on computer.
-
Yes. I shaped these presets over years, on portraits of thousands of people I met all over the world. Every skin tone, every kind of light. The skin is treated on its own, with care, so every face keeps its natural colour.
