Create and save a custom preset
Open a photo in Detail view and select Presets from the Edit panel.
Select the Options menu, and then select Create Preset.

Select the Preset Group drop-down list, and then select User Presets or Create New Preset Group.
By default, custom presets are saved in User Presets. If creating a new group, enter a group name in the New Preset Group panel, and then select Done .
Select the Select drop-down menu, and then select one of the following:
- All: Selects all edit setting groups.
- Default: Selects the default set of edit settings. Masking, Lens blur, Extra people, and Geometry are excluded by default.

- None: Deselects all edit settings.
Select or deselect the checkboxes next to each settings group to include or exclude specific adjustments, or select each group to manage individual settings within a group.
Deselect settings in the Light group when creating presets, as exposure and lighting typically need adjustment for each photo.
Select the Done icon to save your preset.
