THE SLOW TRAVELER SUMMERTIME PRESETS

Pictures come to life, I think, by editing. Editing changes not just how your picture looks, but how it feels. And a picture conveying a feeling is a picture telling a story. 

I spent years learning and refining my editing skills. I put all those skills into my first ever collection of presets. The Slow Traveler Summertime Presets bring out the best in your pictures of summer. They accentuate the things you love most about summer: trees looking impossibly green, pretty light and pretty shadows, flowers showing off in all their colours. They add dreaminess to your summer pictures, make your pictures woozy with summer, a little hazy, a little atmospheric, and just the littlest bit moody. 

The presets are for pictures of your lazy afternoon in the garden, your roadtrip to the countryside, your walks in the woodlands, or the mountains, or the meadows. They're for pictures of that fairytale cottage, that rose garden in full bloom, that peaceful little village by the riverbank. They're for pictures of summer sunsets and summer sunrises and long open roads winding off into forever. 

The presets make it quicker and easier to edit your pictures. But they do much more than that, I think. They fill your pictures with a certain romance, a special kind of nostalgia, like a memory of summer, or a dream of sumner. They capture not just how summer looks, but how it feels. They make your pictures tell better stories. 

THE SLOW TRAVELER

The Slow Traveller is my quintessential preset. It's my ultimate preset. It's my labour-of-love preset. It's my I-drove-myself-mad-making-it preset. It makes greens deeper, shadows softer, everything warmer. It makes pictures look painterly, dreamy, moody, magic. It makes pictures feel hopelessly romantic, like a movie scene, like a fairytale come to life, like a lyric from a song that gets your heart fluttering. The Slow Traveller is all the things I know and love about making pictures in a single preset.

THE SUMMER MEMORY 

The Summer Memory makes pictures look like a long-ago summer, and feel like an almost-forgotten summer. It brings in just a tiny bit of moodiness, melancholy. It adds the quality of a vignette. It makes colours softer. So it's little hazy like a memory. It's nostalgic and atmospheric like a memory. And, like a memory, it keeps alive the feeling of summer long after summer's faded. 

THE SUMMER DREAM

Picture yourself in fairytale. See how everything looks a bit off, looks a little strange, but looks much more beautiful because of it. This preset plays on summertime's languid, dreamlike quality. The tone is cool, but colours pop. The Summer Dream feels like you've thrown a bit of magic dust over your picture. 

These preset are for LIGHTROOM DESKTOP (latest version required). See FAQs for more info.
