134 Best Lightroom Presets for Instagram

Several of our PresetLove users reached out for presets to use on for their social media, so here are the Lightroom presets that we compiled for Instagram. They are on the right track; it is now a good time to work on your online presence especially if you are on Instagram.

Lightroom presets not only enhance the look of your photos but also help set up your feed.

How to Set Up Your Instagram Look

Instagram now has over 1 billion users. If you are setting your Instagram up for business, or if you simply want to make it memorable, you need to have a signature look. In such an enormous visual platform, this will be the style that your audience would associate with you and your brand.

1. Determine Your Style Based on Your Content

While it is tempting to just go with whatever look you feel like, it is important to keep the aesthetic relevant to what you are posting. If you have images of dishes and desserts, for example, choose a colorful but true-to-life food preset. A monochrome effect may look dramatic, but not appetizing.

2. Choose a Consistent Mood

Mood and visual style go hand in hand. If you want something bold, consider using urban presets. If something cozy and approachable, use soft and matte presets.

It can be overwhelming to choose over many styles, and that is exactly why Adobe Lightroom presets are useful. They are easy to use: download several of them and try out as many as you want.

Presets are also easy to install and are absolutely beginner-friendly. Check out our guide to learn how to add presets to Lightroom. We’ll show you how to use DNG preset formats on the Lightroom mobile app, and XMP on Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic.

3. Apply the Style Throughout Your Feed

You can only establish your visual identity on Instagram if you make it consistent. Applying your chosen style or Lightroom preset to all images would give your feed a professional, cohesive, look and feel.

It is a look that you have to commit to. If you want to browse first to be sure, here’s our collection of 300+ presets that you can download for free.

Tip: you can use the same Lightroom preset but tweak some settings like exposure and contrast.

Finally, do not forget to check how your Instagram feed looks in a grid format. You can plan the order of your posts based on it.
