FILM I
Our Review
FILM I Preset by Emilie Hofferber — a fast way to build a consistent editing style for a photography side business
The gist: A single Portra 400-inspired Lightroom preset that gives freelance and hobbyist photographers a repeatable, professional-looking edit in one click — a real time-saver when editing hours eat into billable work.
- One-click consistency: Applies the same film-inspired look across a full shoot, which helps a freelancer or content creator build a recognizable, consistent portfolio style.
- True-to-color skin tones: Keeps skin tones accurate rather than shifted, important for client portrait or headshot work.
- Versatile across lighting: Built to hold up in daylight, golden hour, and mixed lighting, so it doesn't need a different preset for every shoot type.
- Low-cost editing tool: At $15 with no subscription, it's a low-overhead way to speed up a post-processing workflow compared to editing every image from scratch.
Per the creator's own Moment listing, Emilie Hofferber is a working Utah-based photographer who built the preset around her own landscape-and-portrait style — a real photographer's workflow, not a generic filter.
Best for: photographers and content creators who want faster, more consistent edits for a portfolio or client deliverables. Skip it if: your editing workflow isn't built around Lightroom — it's a DNG preset made specifically for that app. Runs ~$15 — check the current price before buying.
