It is one of those days,. Shooting a wedding and missed the color by a mile. Chimped one or two times during groups but the images looked ok. Pulling my hair out in Lightroom trying to get the combination right. It was my first attempt at jpg only with my 40D.

The thumbnails actually look better in windows explorer than in lightroom.

ideas?

I feel like a rookie!!!!!!!

Darn that church lighting!!!!!!!

and an edit in LR...
I think I could send you the preset...
you can probably get it closer with more fiddling...

*edit*
WB on brides dress bodice. Take Red Hue slider and move it right towards orange, Yellow slider left, green slider left. Pull back on the Red Saturation slider.

All weddings should be outdoors, sunset, west coast beach light, no white tuxes. Am I forgetting anything.Oh yeah, 77 degrees, 5 mph breeze.dsDo you have a camera preset in your lightroom? I just switched to lightroom because my CS2 Bridged/Photoshop doesn't support the camera raw out of my 40d. I am getting familiar with the set up.ds (dennis@sundermanphotography.com)

I would do a curves adjustment - and pull down the reds. It may need other stuff too but if you do that and get it right - you can literally pull that adjustment layer from picture to picture.

Hey Dennis,

No, I don't have a camera preset on import... perhaps I should, but I've never seemed to need one. I usually adjust each event individually and just save my fav presets for other things...

bridge works with raw 40d files...you just have to download the 40d plugin from adobe.
