My $20 investment in VSCO X is hands down the best investment I've made into photography. They just keep coming with the presets. At first, it started off with just like 1 or 2 per month, but then they started to deliver full packs. So far we've looked at the Mobile Preset Pack, The Urban Series, The Portrait Series and now The Artificial Light Series.

As stated above, The Artificial Light Series is free to all VSCO X members, but for those who prefer your presets a la carte, no worries, this is available in their app store for $3.99. That's about .66 cents per preset... Not bad.

Before we get into this, let's figure out what's unique about it. The first thing that stood out to me was the diversity of the pack. When I read artificial light I thought this pack was for those who liked to shoot with neon lights or light bulbs. but as I dog deeper into it I saw that it can be used on just about any photo. VSCO also claims that it will help bring life to your imperfect photo. I'm not really sure what that means, but I decided to test it on 6 street photographs that I considered imperfect. Some were underexposed, some were in low light situations and there were a few that were just flat out... well, flat.
