SoCal Gold — Lightroom Preset

Warm sun, salty air, and golden glow. An homage to the legendary Kodak Gold 200 film stock.

SoCal Gold is your ticket to capturing that dreamy, laid-back California beach vibe. Inspired by the soft sunlit tones and vintage film warmth of a perfect day on the La Jolla coast, this preset brings out rich golden skin tones, warm highlights, and sun-soaked shadows with a subtle nostalgic touch.

Designed to enhance the natural glow of skin while keeping beachy blues and coastal neutrals balanced, SoCal Gold is perfect for golden hour portraits, lifestyle shots, and candid beach moments. Whether you’re editing 35mm film scans or digital beach sessions, this preset adds that timeless West Coast essence to every frame.
