These are my actual in-camera settings pulled straight from my EXIF data — from my favourite travel photos. Manual mode, no flash, warm WB shift. Dial these in and your photos will look more intentional before you even open Lightroom.
This guide covers 9 lighting conditions with real settings from real trips, the reasoning behind every choice, and a quick reference table you'll actually use in the field.
What's inside:
- 9 lighting conditions — Early Golden Hour to Moody Indoor
- Exact shutter, aperture, ISO, white balance and creative style settings for each
- The Secret Sauce — why these settings work and how to build your own signature look
- Quick Reference Table — screenshot it, print it, keep it in your camera bag
- Real travel photos as proof the settings actually work
