Free Lightroom Landscape Presets

My presets for Adobe Lightroom are “donationware”. I develop, release, and maintain them for free, and you can use them for free forever, but I hope you find them worthy of a gift of thanks or encouragement.

A quick note before you download

These presets are pretty old now. If you want my current Lightroom workflow, take a look at the Rethink Toolkit — it’s the system I use for all my images today.

I set out with a mission to create a set of landscape photography presets that are not gimmicky. No instagram-like filters to be found here, only high quality presets that will transform dull raw files into beautiful images.

The develop presets are intended to take your image from zero to print quality in only a few clicks. Processing images is a frustrating burden to many, and I wanted to provide presets to take away the pain, so you can spend more time shooting, and less in front of a computer.

The local adjustment presets are for those that want to take their image to the next level, and let their artistic side come out. The burn and dodge tools are highly customized to act like luminosity masks, only affecting certain tonal ranges of the image.

Please watch the video below to learn how to use these presets.
