Kristie Mangold Presets & Toolkit
10-Year Anniversary Edition

After a decade behind the lens, pouring my heart into this craft, it brings me to tears (the good kind) to finally release something so personal and meaningful: the Kristie Mangold Presets & Toolkit — created in honor of 10 beautiful years in business.

These presets are more than just tones. They are built from the hues of my everyday inspiration — the golden warmth of a setting sun over a field, the muted blues of the ocean at dawn, the earthy richness of forest shadows, and the glow of a mother holding her child close. Each of the 12 thoughtfully crafted presets is rooted in the deep emotional connections I get to witness during sessions — those quiet in-between moments, laughter through tears, the love in a lingering touch.

This collection is for photographers who want their work to feel — to evoke, to remember, to preserve. The included customization toolkit gives you the freedom to tailor each edit to your own voice, while staying grounded in the rich, true-to-life tones that have become the heart of my style.

Releasing these now, after 10 years of growth, hustle, and immeasurable gratitude, feels like sharing a piece of my soul. Whether you’ve followed my journey or are just beginning yours, I hope these presets help you see the beauty in the ordinary and the extraordinary alike — and tell stories that last a lifetime.

    Once downloaded, unzip (double-click on Mac or right-click → “Extract” on Windows) the folder to reveal your presets and toolkit files.

    Step 3: Open Lightroom

    Ensure you're using Lightroom Classic (v7.3 or later) or the Lightroom CC Desktop App — these presets are .XMP files and are not compatible with the mobile app alone without prior desktop installation.

    • On the left panel, find the Presets section.

    • Click the “+” icon and select “Import Presets”.

    • Navigate to your unzipped folder and select all the .XMP files. Click Import.

    • Your Kristie Mangold Presets will now appear in your preset list, ready to use!

    Step 5: Use the Toolkit

    The toolkit includes adjustment brushes or additional slider tweaks to help fine-tune your edit. These may appear under Local Adjustments (if included as brushes) or as a separate preset group labeled “KM Toolkit”.
