Shooting Tip That Makes Editing Easier

If you're tired of fighting with white balance in post, here's a quick fix your future self will thank you for: shoot in Kelvin.

Here’s a cheat sheet to get you started:

  • Indoor ceremony with tungsten lights? → 2800–3200K

  • Outdoor portraits in shade or on cloudy days? → 6000–7000K

  • Golden hour goodness? → 5500K

  • Direct sun? → 5200–5600K

🎯 The trick isn’t getting it perfect – it’s picking one temperature per scene and sticking to it. Even if it’s slightly off, at least it’ll be consistently off. And that makes batch editing so much easier.

Editing doesn’t have to be painful – not when your white balance stays put.

💡 Shoot in Kelvin. Save time. Stay consistent.
