A COLLABORATION WITH DAWN PHOTO
Finally, a preset that will not go out of style. A photo is so valuable because it captures a moment that is impossible to reproduce. The Open Roads pack does not take away from those once in a lifetime meaningful moments, but enhances them through an edit that is comparable to a breath of fresh air — soft, slow, and timeless.
As a seasoned photographer and mom of two, I recognize the importance of crafting images that are able to stand the test of time. Greg and I spent hours perfecting the Open Roads Pack so you could be one click away from an edit that pulls out the best colors in your photos with just enough grain and grit for a film-like feel. For photos to turn from a savored moment, to a timeless legacy.
Open Roads Pack consists of 4 color presets, and 1 black and white preset to take your RAW images and add a timeless touch. Each preset has 2 additional variations, + and ++ (totaling in 12 color and 3 BW) . On top of this, there are 2 foliage presets that are meant to be used last while editing. The foliage presets add warmth and depth between your lens and your subject.
My first collaboration pack, the campfire presets, are meant to help you capture the richness of an image while maintaining a nostalgic feel. Open Roads stems from the same nostalgic goal, but this time in a minimalistic way.
Before and after images below demonstrate how each preset manipulates an image with identical white balance and exposure.

“I’ve literally edited three weddings/shoots with these and I’ve never been able to capture the detail of the Tetons, skin tones, and mood all in one click… so I’m obsessed and never have to buy presets again cause this is exactly the style I’ve been trying to achieve for the last 5 years.”
“Dawn truly delivered with the open roads pack. They’re everything I could’ve ever wanted – timeless, soft, filmy, and so natural looking but still very artistic. I can’t describe them in any way other than they give every photo a feeling like it’s been sitting in a photo album from generations ago, like the sweetest memory you could imagine. I have both the desktop and mobile campfire and open roads presets and I definitely recommend getting them both! I just know I’ll be editing my personal photos on my phone with the open roads pack. I’m truly so so grateful for Dawn and these presets for helping my work evolve and giving me the look I was trying to achieve in my editing :)”
“So in love with the pack. Gave me exactly what I was missing in my photography. Seriously. I used every single preset in this gallery and they all looked cohesive, but still allowed each individual photo to shine through without forcing it to look just like the others! I can’t thank you enough for this little gift! It’s given me the motivation I’ve needed!”
