    Hi guys,

    Some of you may know that I recently shot my first wedding. It came out pretty okay I think, well for a first time any way. However, I made a mistake. I wanted to have a nice blend of ambient and flash. I shot with manual flash. I exposed just enough to make the bride and groom "pop out" but, unfortunately not enough to have nice highlights. Stupid tungsten lights bounced off the yellow coloured walls and cast a yellowish highlights/hue on my subjects.

    Now I could fix it with selective layers in GIMP, but it would be quite time consuming to say the least.

    Is there anyway to create my own brush in Lightroom or Capture One 5 that would desaturate yellow hue from a part of the image? If so how, can I do it?

    maybe other programs have that already built in? Aperture? Any other ones?

    EDIT:

    Okay I just noticed that Lightroom actually has this built in.

    Poster - Download the Viveza 2 plug-in from NIK software. I think there is a free 15 day trial. It does this super fast.

    You can also do the brush in lightroom, but that will take longer.

    For NEF I would suggest CaptureNX, it has Viveza built in, and is the best software I have tried to "develop" NEF files and it is really easy to select and apply various corrections to a selection.
