“I did the Custom Preset mentoring with Amy and honestly, it was one of the best things I’ve done for my photography. I’d been stuck in that “edit-tweak-tweak-tweak” cycle for ages, never quite getting my images to look how I wanted. Amy completely broke that pattern. She helped me understand what was actually happening in my workflow and built a preset with me that finally feels right. What I loved most is that she doesn’t just throw settings at you — she teaches you why things work, how to shoot better for your style and how to edit with confidence. I walked away not only with a set of custom presets that I love, but also a solid understanding of my process. Amy is warm, down-to-earth, and genuinely invested in helping you find your style.”

“I’d been struggling to get my preset just right for ages, but after reaching out to Amy she sorted it so quickly and absolutely nailed what I was going for. Now I finally have a signature style I love! I’ve had loads of compliments on my edits, and even a few people asking if they can buy my preset. You’re a wizard Amy!”

“I had been really struggling with finding my style and spending hours upon hours on galleries which was making me fall out of love with me work! I reached out to Northern Presets after countless recommendations and to date, it is still my best investment! The process was very easy and I loved how invested Amy was in trying to understand my vision. We looked at everything in great detail and the biggest gain for me was not only being able to manage WB in camera, but using my new presets to quickly tweak an image in seconds rather than hours! This was truly game changing for me! The after care is second to none and I always feel comfortable asking for help! The only regret you're going to have, is not getting your presets sooner than now!”

"I did a mentorship with Amy when I was early on in my career and it helped me so much, not just with my editing, but in understanding how to improve the quality of my files when shooting. Amy has an amazing depth of knowledge about editing and photography and is so good at explaining the fundamentals in a way that's easy to take on board. She is also really kind and encouraging, which is great for those struggling with impostor syndrome or to find their creative voice. Overall, I can't recommend Amy highly enough if you're looking to take your career to the next level".

“I first approached Amy-Leigh from Northern Presets after years of trying various off the shelf presets. These presets always took a lot of tweaking to work with the way I photograph and the final look I wanted. Amy-Leigh has incredible knowledge of Lightroom and after discussing what I liked Amy-Leigh created an amazing set of presets custom designed for the way I shoot and the way I edit. These presets have saved me hours in editing time and have absolutely made my final images more consistent. “
