Cool and Warm Lighting

[Mandy]

When do you apply one and the other? I have a hard time manipulating the color temperature in my pictures. You can't have a default setting for the lighting because the appearance of light changes depending on the source. What do you do to avoid an artificial look in your photos?

You would have to be careful adjusting the color temperature and only do that minimally. Also, try comparing the picture's color with the raw subject to check how the lighting changes. Aim to maintain the original hue as much as possible.
