SONDER | preset pack

My new SONDER preset pack reflects the evolution of almost two decades photographing weddings. It’s the culmination of a journey marked by endless creation, refinement, and experimentation. Over the years, I always return to what feels natural. In both my photography and editing, I have found that the best results come from a sense of balance. SONDER captures that perfectly: effortless where it should be, intricate when the moment calls for it.
