Yellow in the portraits can be a good thing, but can also be a not-so-good thing.
Golden yellow tones at sunset and sunrise? GOOD.
Yellow teeth, snow, and skin tones? NOT SO GOOD.
While I personally love the color of sunshine, it’s not a great look when it tints the subjects in your photos.
Too much yellow can make portraits look unnatural – which I am sure you’re wanting to avoid.
But, it’s very easy to fix in Lightroom! In fact, it only takes a few steps – so let’s get to it!
Here’s an easy trick to fix yellow tones and color casts in Lightroom
Easy, peasy, am I right?
You can easily fix the yellow tones in your photos by hand OR save a ton of time and use presets!
I personally LOVE the Storyteller preset collection for just that. It’s a great collection to tone down yellows & greens while still giving photos contrast and color.
The best part? These presets don’t turn skin tones orange (which is a common problem with many trendy presets today).
2 clicks and you’re done.
