Legacy Presets – Francesca Angrisano – Poetico Free Download

“My photographs strive to capture the enchantment and magic reminiscent of Pre-Raphaelite painters. I seek to portray their feminine figures, which exude a melancholic and unapproachable aura while still retaining a touch of reality, utilizing a palette of pure, evanescent colors. Undoubtedly, a remarkable photograph serves as the foundation, but in my opinion, the editing process holds paramount importance in digital photography.  I persist in personally attending to every aspect of the editing process because each individual shot, from every session, warrants my utmost attention. I firmly believe that the true essence of a photograph lies in the emotions it conveys. Consequently, during post-production, I strive to recreate a sophisticated atmosphere and the softly sensual lighting often found in outdoor settings.

Each preset is designed to have a more muted color palette and aims to create soft, delicate atmospheres, with little to medium contrast. The presets can be used indoor or outdoor. I personally prefer diffuse daylight and avoid direct sunlight when I work – therefore shady areas or cloudy days are the perfect match for these looks.

Afrodite and Era have slightly warmer tones whereas Aura, Dioniso, Calliope and Ebe are less desaturated. Venere is the preset with more softness and grain, and it is ideal to obtain fluid, dream-like atmospheres.
Apollo is the only monochrome as I believe black and white stand for solemn divinity, that is why he is the god of the sun and the arts. It has slightly warm tones of brown with deep shades and intense black.
