Inside REFINED x KT Merry BW Presets and Profiles

REFINED EDUCATION

The REFINED x KT Merry BW Collection was developed in collaboration with acclaimed photographer KT Merry.

In KT’s own words, “It was many years ago that I came to REFINED Co in desperate need of help with my post-production. I was buying every preset there was and I was tweaking them to my adjustments but I still didn’t feel like it was as good as I wanted it to be. When we go to shoot a wedding I work with my husband and a team of photographers varying from one to three people. I was not only having to match my work to my film but I was also having to match three other photographers' work to my film.

It was never my intention to go into presets, it was just that Marta and I created such a good set together. The presets were able to get my images exactly where I needed them and this collaboration really produced something we are proud of.”

The Refined x KT Merry BW Collection is a line of black & white presets that brings KT’s mastery of Ilford Delta 400 and 3200 film stocks to your edits. Textures, shadows, and light come alive in perfectly balanced beauty for digital and film files alike.
