By popular demand, our essential tools for editing newborn photos are now available for Lightroom 4 and up. Based on the style and simplicity of our popular Newborn Necessities Photoshop actions, the MCP Baby Steps™ presets make editing even faster. We’ve taken these beloved styles and recreated them using global presets that you can sync across images in seconds. And to give you even more control over your images, we’ve designed innovative local adjustment presets to get just the right look.

What Are People Saying?

“I have been looking for ways to speed up my workflow with newborn sessions and Baby Steps Presets is it! I’m able to quickly create that soft, dreamy look for proofing galleries and not even open photoshop unless more extensive retouching is needed. Before these Presets I would have never thought it was possible to edit a newborn session in Lightroom alone!”

Jacky T Photography, jackytphotography.com
“The MCP Baby Steps Preset Collection for Lightroom has been such a huge time saver for me! I have used this collection on it’s own in Lightroom and as a companion to the Newborn Necessities collection in Photoshop. It is so versatile. It can make my images pop or subtly soft. I especially love the hazes. This collection has shaved so much time off of my workflow!”

Tara Fletcher Photography, tarafletcherphotography.com
“As a skilled user of both Photoshop and Lightroom, I am finding myself using Lightroom more and more because it cuts down my overall editing time. Baby Steps maximizes what I can do in Lightroom. From creamy black and whites to more vibrant looks, Baby Steps is extremely versatile. It has a very thorough collection of skin correction brushes that allow me to adjust both difficult newborn skin and make minor tweaks to older children and adults.”

Jess Rotenberg Photography, jessrotenberg.com
“This new action is simply amazing for not only newborn edits but portraits in general. They are easy to use and save time. I LOVE this new set and cannot wait to play more.”
