RXTRO - Lightroom Preset by Filter Awkarin

RXTRO - Lightroom Preset is designed around a vivid, cyberpunk-inspired color style, combining electric neon tones with deep contrast and a distinctly retro-futuristic atmosphere. Created for Lightroom, the preset gives photos a bold treatment that works particularly well with scenes where strong colors, artificial lighting, and dramatic contrast are already part of the image.

Rather than aiming for a soft or natural color grade, RXTRO focuses on an energetic visual identity. Its combination of vibrant colors and futuristic tones makes it particularly suited to night photography, street scenes, and edgy portraits.

A Cyberpunk-Inspired Lightroom Look

The defining characteristic of RXTRO is its approach to color. The preset is built to emphasize bold, vibrant colors, while its neon-inspired treatment pushes images toward a cyberpunk aesthetic.

The look combines three main visual characteristics:

• Electric neon colors for a more vivid appearance
• Deep contrast that strengthens the separation between light and dark areas
• Futuristic tones that create the preset's retro-futuristic character

These qualities make RXTRO a more specialized preset rather than a general-purpose photographic treatment. It is intended for images where a strong and stylized color grade fits the subject.

Designed for Night, Street, and Portrait Photography

RXTRO is specifically designed for night shots, street photography, and edgy portraits. These types of images naturally provide opportunities for its neon-oriented color treatment.

Night photographs containing illuminated signs, city lights, or other colorful light sources can take advantage of the preset's emphasis on vivid tones and contrast. In street photography, the same treatment can create a more energetic urban appearance.

For portraits, RXTRO is aimed at a bolder style rather than a neutral portrait grade. This makes it relevant when the goal is to give the subject and surrounding environment a stronger futuristic or cyberpunk-inspired mood.

One-Click Editing in Lightroom

RXTRO uses a straightforward preset-based workflow. Once it has been added to Lightroom, the look can be applied to a photograph with a single preset selection rather than manually recreating its color treatment for each image.

Its main purpose is therefore not to provide a collection of separate editing tools, but to deliver a predefined visual style that can be applied quickly across compatible Lightroom environments.

The preset supports both Lightroom Mobile and Lightroom Desktop, giving users flexibility in where they apply the effect.

Platform Compatibility

This cross-platform support means the same preset concept can fit both mobile-based photo editing and desktop Lightroom workflows.
