The sacred minerals, drawn from nature into tone and color.

Inspired by Rose Quartz, Citrine, Jasper, and Obsidian. Four presets and profiles that reflect these tones from nature, transforming and enhancing your images. Each profile acts like a dynamic gem-tone veil of color and contrast.

A collection of presets and profiles drawn from the sacred minerals — Rose Quartz, Citrine, Jasper, and Obsidian. Tones pulled straight from the earth and laid back over your images.

There's a depth to stone that light alone can't give. The warm rose buried in quartz, the tawny glow of citrine, the earthy bronze and emerald of jasper, the black-and-grey weight of obsidian. Gemtones reflects these tones from nature, transforming and enhancing your work — each profile acting like a dynamic gem-tone veil of color and contrast, dialed up or back to suit the frame.

What's in the set
Four stones, four facets of color

        Gemtones Profiles
        Four creative profiles, one for each preset — a dynamic gem-tone veil of color and contrast. Dial each one up to deepen the effect, or back it off for a lighter touch.
      
        Gemtones 01 — Rose Quartz
        Matte highlights with a subtle warm rose undertone. The accompanying Rose Quartz Profile allows for an increase in richness and a deepening of contrast and rose hues.
      
        Gemtones 02 — Citrine
        A soft golden warmth throughout the tonal range. The Citrine Profile adds a tawny-citrus undertone while building dynamic contrast.
      
        Gemtones 03 — Jasper
        An opaque, earthy bronze palette with deep emerald greens and peach highlights. The Jasper Profile adds color depth and mood.
      
        Gemtones 04 — Obsidian
        Inspired by flowering obsidian, this preset and profile emulate both the jet black and light grey of the igneous rock. Decrease the profile to add lightness, increase it to add contrast.

"How can one click look so good? Before I have even touched any of my sliders I'm thinking 'this is amazing.' It's clean and crisp yet moody. i, ii, iii have a beautiful vintage feel, all varying enough to compliment a different scenario, yet linked well to keep your set consistent. And let's talk about iv — that gorgeous black and white is contrasty, punchy, and so filmic. I'm loving Quest Gemtones."

"I've been mainly using Nomad on my work, but I think Quest 5 is about to take over! These tones — everything I need and want for my golden/blue hour sessions! I feel this pack offers a great range of presets for all skin colours, which is so important and hard to find. I can't wait to use these on many sessions to come!"
