A poor white balance makes your image look either too blue (cooler) or too orange (warmer). &nbsp;Only a correct white balance helps you seize a perfect shot in which the subject or all the objects look natural.<\/p><p>Most digital cameras nowadays, including your smartphone camera, are proficient at manually adjusting the white balance. Nonetheless, there&rsquo;s always a possibility of capturing a beautiful moment with bad white balance. Professional photographers are skilled in achieving the correct white balance. However, if you fail to do so or lack professional photography skills, you can try your hands on post-production software to fix bad white balance in photos.<\/p><blockquote class=\"note_alert\">\n<p>White balance is a way to set a photograph to neutral, to make the white look white.<\/p>\n<cite>Adam Long<br>Photographer and Educator (www.adobe.com)<\/cite><\/blockquote><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"post-production-tools-to-fix-white-balance-in-photographs\"><strong>Post-Production Tools to Fix White Balance in Photographs<\/strong><\/h2><p>Using professional quality photo editing software is a fantastic way to improve light and colors in your pictures. Try Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom to edit and adjust bad white balance in photos. Both the software let you edit a raw file and fix all kinds of lighting flaws in it. Simply download the photo editing software and follow the guidelines below:<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-adjust-white-balance-in-a-photo-using-adobe-photoshop\"><strong>Adjust White Balance in a Photo Using Adobe Photoshop<\/strong><\/h3><p>Photoshop is a sophisticated photo editing tool that offers many adjustment tools to fix bad white balance.

Just like in your DSLR camera settings, all you have to do is choose from a set of options to adjust White Balance (WB). Let&rsquo;s explore different options offered in Lightroom:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Follow the instructions to <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecloud.adobe.com\/apps\/download\/lightroom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download Adobe Lightroom<\/a> and sign in to install the app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once successfully downloaded, open the application and export the photos with bad white balance. Pick the eyedropper tool in the basic panel to get started.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Move it to a neutral part of your photograph where the Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) values are close to each other. &nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once you hover over the apt location, a box will pop up with the RGB color values at the bottom.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lightroom will automatically adjust the white balance of your image. If you&rsquo;re happy with the outcome, continue experimenting the same with other available editing tools.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Save the image once done.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>Nonetheless, if you are not happy with the outcome, switch to other options like white balance sliders. Lightroom offers two white balance sliders &ndash; Temp Slider and Tint Slider. The Temp slider adds blue or yellow hues to neutralize warm or cool color casts. While the Tint slider adds green and magenta hues to the photograph.<\/p><p>Note: The Temp slider is more useful than the Tint slider because bright lights mostly produce a warm or cool color cast that cannot be fixed with Tint slider.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-word-of-caution\"><strong>A Word of Caution<\/strong><\/h3><p>Despite being renowned for fixing flaws like underexposure or bad white balance in photos, Lightroom is not completely secure when it comes to editing valuable images. It can corrupt your RAW file during import to the hard drive. In fact, the editing tool can also affect your JPEG photo quality. Learn more about the same from our blog on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/does-editing-jpgs-in-lightroom-reduce-image-quality\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Does Editing JPGs in Lightroom Reduce Image Quality?<\/a><\/p><p>As a precautionary measure, while using either of the photo editing tools, if your photos turn corrupt, use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/photo-repair-software.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stellar Repair for Photo<\/a> to fix it.
