Taking photos in the sun without a fill-light or reflector often result in dark shadows. To fix this issue you can use the adjustment brush in Lightroom and lighten up those areas or… you can use this preset which also gives another great effect. As you can see it brings a nice overall warm “pinkish” (nice word btw)Â tone to the photo. To me this kind of style looks more fashionable than the original photo. Just look at the nice enhancement of the reflections in the sunglasses.

Another great one, Pierre. Thank you.
Wonderful – thank you!
Doesnt work…the file isnt in atn format…
Hi Tiffany,
No, that’s correct. The presets on this site are for Adobe Lightroom only. Not Photoshop Camera Raw.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yikes! You’ve blown the highlights with this preset!
This one is perfect, thanks!
Lightroom is the bomb, thanks!
Love it. I’ve always struggled with hard shadows in bright sunlight. I’ll be using this one alot.
Hrm, this is great! I tend to go cool, cool cool with photos so I need to get out of that habit! Thanks for your excellent site.
