Kindred Presets review
A focused preset library with style testing, mobile support, and one-time pricing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Kindred Presets sells downloadable photo preset collections for photographers who want to shape color, contrast, and skin-tone rendering in Adobe Lightroom workflows. Its products cover Lightroom Classic, Lightroom CC, Adobe Camera Raw, and Lightroom Mobile across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android workflows. The catalog includes desktop collections, a mobile series, artist collaborations, bundles, custom presets, and a six-preset pack for exploring different styles before committing to a larger collection.
Pricing is one-time rather than subscription-based. The Find Your Style Pack costs $47 and includes six beginner-friendly presets, an installation guide, a video tutorial, and compatibility with Lightroom Classic, Lightroom CC, and ACR. The Kindred Mobile / Influencer Series costs $69 for six mobile presets designed for Lightroom Mobile, with an installation video included. Desktop preset collections cost $99 and include Lightroom and ACR compatibility, with collections such as Technical, Aura, Noir, and Black + White. A free image testing service adds a practical way to preview the intended look before purchase, while refunds are not offered.
The product’s main strength is focused style exploration rather than broad editing software functionality. Installation guides and video tutorials support onboarding, and custom preset creation adds revisions and walkthroughs for buyers seeking a more tailored result. The strongest fit is for photographers who already work in Adobe’s Lightroom ecosystem and want downloadable presets with desktop or mobile options. Buyers seeking a free tier, recurring software features, or workflows outside Lightroom and ACR should choose another option.
