This beautiful portrait by New Zealand-based Rachel Jordan is awe-inspiring! Edited with: Quest 25 Fable and Quest Tools 06 - Modern Borders
“Beautiful presets that flow effortless! Love the beautiful skin tones and filmic qualities of these packs.”
Gear: Sony A7R5 , Sony 16-35 GM
We love the dreamy, earthy mood in this session by New York-based Stephanie George Photography, edited with Quest 05 - Gemtones
“Archipelago Presets have always been my go-to for as long as I can remember, Archipelago’s whole style
and mood pairs so well with my brand and they have always been so reliable for me. I’ve been using the Quest 05 presets for the last few years in my workflow pretty religiously. All of their presets are so amazing, and have really helped me become so confident in my style and who I am as an artist.”
Gear: Canon R6, Canon 35mm 1.4 lens
These nostalgic Quest 16 Riven edits by Lyss Miller blew us away! Lyss also added Daydream from Legend & Lore on these hazy edits!
“I cannot speak highly enough of Archipelago Quest. I love that no matter what style of photography you
shoot, you will be able to find something that calls to you. Whether it be the presets, or the incredible tools
they offer, you will be sure to find something that inspires you and adds to your art! Another thing that I love about Archipelago is the community. The Facebook group is such a welcoming, safe place that allows you unlimited help and inspiration. I keep the group notifications on so I can see all of the beautiful work that gets posted daily!”
Gear: Canon RP, Sigma Art 50mm, Nylon over lens
Edmonton-based photographer Weech Photography took this gorgeous Quest 35 Nexus and Quest 36 Botanica edited series in Iceland, inspiring us all.
“I have loved being subscribed the Archipelago quest because it allows me to push my creativity and try new things. Most of the presets I’ve tested have been one click presets which has saved me a lot of time in post processing.”
Gear: Sony a7riv with 35mm f1.4 GM
We love the beautiful light of this touching photo by Massachusetts-based photographer Destiny Smith, edited with Quest 35 Nexus
Gear: Nikon Z6iii + 35mm f1.8
These Quest 37 Soraya-edited wedding photos by Ohio-based Stephanie West Photography made us stop our scroll!
“I have absolutely fallen in love with the Archipelogo presets. I was obsessed with Serenus until I got to try Soraya and now I can’t choose which one to use. They are my favorites for weddings, headshots and general sessions I photograph. I love the ability to keep colors true (especially blues and greens), with a subtle warmth and gentle haze and grain. I also really enjoy utilizing the tools that have been available, such as the Portrait Toolset and the Wedding Toolset.”
Gear: Nikon D780, Tamron 24-70 f/2.8, Nikon 50mm f/1.8
