Who is ready for spring sessions? How about spring EDITING?
We’ve rounded up Quest presets that will help you edit your springy images! Whether you love vibrant, bold color or muted pastels, these presets will inspire you to get out there and celebrate the season!
QUEST 24 FLORESCE
Quest 24 Floresce is the perfect light and airy preset for spring— plus the included tools like the 3 Pastelize presets and 3 Skin Tone presets help optimize your edit!
Floresce brings you an ethereal collection of presets and AI tools, aimed at helping you achieve a stunning light & airy aesthetic with just a few clicks. The 3 color graded presets provide a strong base to work from, offering multiple dynamic options. You can customize your look further from there with the included AI presets. Among the 7 included tools, Ethereal gives you a transformative look by lifting brightness while retaining contrast & exposure levels. Be sure to use the Skin Tone modifiers to perfectly dial in your subject. Lastly, the Pastelize tools allow you to filter tonality into your background while maintaining subject & skin tone accuracy.
QUEST 15 OPALESCENT
Quest 15 Opalescent brings vibrant pastel tones to your spring images— think springy greens, aqua blues, and sunflower yellows!
Quest 27 Serenus
Something about spring sessions and all those beautiful flowers makes you long for a true to color preset, am I right? Serenus is the true to color preset with a filmy creative profile you’re looking for!
Serenus is designed to give your images a refined and polished look while maintaining absolute color accuracy across all hues. Each preset gently lifts the shadows and adds a soft contrast, bringing a flattering dynamic to your subject without straying from the essence of what you captured.
The Serenus Creative Profile brings a subtle filmic edge by adding a soft peachy overtone and (for the first time in a creative profile) adding a subtle grain texture.
Perfect for wedding photography, product imagery, lifestyle, journalistic work, and any instances where color accuracy is a top priority.
Quest 04 Aurora
This early Quest set is one of my personal favorites for spring— clean tones plus a profile that takes your tones from warm to cool, what’s not to love?
This set explores a clean, cool-toned aesthetic with pale, icy blues and desaturated teal greens, whilst retaining soft, natural skin tones. No grain is applied as default to aid with the clean, modern aesthetic. The Quest 04 Aurora set includes 3 Color Presets, plus 1 Custom Profile. The Aurora Profile gives the ability to shift the shadow toning from warm to cool, whilst also adapting the green hue and blue luminosity.
Quest Tools 04 - Prism Effects
We love dreamy light for spring photos! Prism Effects gives you realistic prism effects without leaving Lightroom. These presets are inspired by different ways you can use prisms, crystals, and other pieces of glass to reflect light in your photo.
Add creative flare with the Prism Effects light-bending preset collection.
This set replicates the optical effect created when shooting with a glass prism held in front of your lens, reflecting and dispersing the light to creatively transform your image. Each individual prism effect can be manipulated within the Masking Panel to alter placement and intensity, and multiple prism effects can be layered to create truly unique edits. Both horizontal and vertical versions are provided.
