Editing portraits: how to get golden/warm tones?
I'm not sure if this is the right forum (first time on here), but I was curious if anyone knew how to get warm/brown/gold skin tones while editing portraits? A friend of mine asked me to take her engagement photos and all my inspiration photos have this beautiful tone.
I've been watching dozens of youtube videos and practicing on photos, but it never looks quite right. After experimenting with gradient map, color balance, and selective color for a while and not getting what I was looking for I thought I'd try out here.
Here are a few of my inspiration pictures, so you can see how most of the photos look - I'm not trying to directly copy one photographers work! I included the photographers' Instagram usernames in there. I shoot in RAW, will be shooting right before sunset, and have some VSCO films, but they aren't quite right for this. Thoughts?
