Colour Changing from Lightroom Classic to Photoshop

Hi, 

 

I have been having issues with colours changing between Lightroom Classic and Photoshop. I have been taking photos of clothes and editing the colour straight away in Lightroom using  the Spydercheckr Software to get the colours accurate and create a preset. However, when the photos are saved and the raw images are transferred into Photoshop the colour changes darastically. Then when I open the saved, edited Tiff files the colours have changed again. 

 

I've attached an image to show the colour changes. On the Left is the raw image opened as a photo (as it will have showed in Lightroom), the second across is the raw image opened in Photoshop, the thrid across is the edited tiff opened in photoshop, and the furtherest right is the edited tiff opened as a photo. 

 

I would really appriciate any help I can get. Thank you!

Personal opinion only :

There are several things to take in count.

First of all Photoshop shows you what you want it to show. You can ask to proof colors and set the proof  to the pic aimed destination. And to be frank even like this there are some differences between how a pic is displayed by Photoshop or simply opened by lets say Chrome.

Here is the same JPEG image in Photoshop and chrome.

Even with evreything correctly setup you can notice differences

And if you set up proof colors to sRGB the disater begins with Photoshop greying the face.

Also an embeded profile might have been added to a pic so check if there is one or not, and the way Photoshop manages the colors

And to complicat even more the situation the screen should have bee calibrated, and very few do this…

 

Adding Windows and Mac difference and you will be obliged to only stick to the destination result to correct the images no matter color calibration gurus are tryiing to explain (or justify)

 

Again personal experience only
