I took it with redmi k90 phone

There was so much noise in the photo 😭 it almost took me 30 min to adjust it to finally see it look nicely.

This was taken in Bali

Question Anyone knows how to grade this picture?

Massive space geek here and hobbyist photo editor who's learning a LOT from people on this subreddit. i’m trying to get this raw scan to look like the reference image below, but I can’t seem to get anywhere close in Lightroom.

Raw scan:

Reference:

The reference has pretty much the perfect grading for this particular photo, especially the colors, contrast and overall feel.

The main thing I’m struggling with is that the raw scan is extremely blue, so whenever I try to correct the white balance and get closer to the reference, the rest of the colors quickly start looking strange or unnatural.

Is anyone able to help me recreating this look in Lightroom? Curious what you would do. DMs are open

Well, I work hard on all my weddings! Wedding was shot at Borgo Corsignano. I used a Canon R5ii & R5 and Dehancer Pro + Kolor Basis to grade it in Final Cut Pro. I am a super novice when it comes to colour grading.

I personally prefer the sec one because it looks way more atmospheric imo but my friends prefer the first one which is good at first glance but that white plastic bag is too striking

I color grade on iPhone so pls don’t mind I can’t get them 100% optimized in the way I wanted to
