How do I achive this type of color toning
I'm not sure of the name of this type of toning but I'm a big fan of it! https://www.creativelive.com/sites/defa … 00x900.jpg Aug 31 14 02:50 am Link The short answer is....I don't really know. I can't see the original image. But if I had to guess based on elements contained, here is what I would do (in lightroom). -"crush blacks" a bit - move the temp slightly towards warm - split tone to add a subtle hue to the shadows Aug 31 14 08:54 am Link Thank you, I'll try it. Sep 01 14 02:39 am Link I almost always tone at the end in case the client decides they don't like it or in case I change my mind. In other words, tone in Photoshop, not Lightroom or ACR. For something similar to this, I'd personally colorize in a hue/saturation adjustment layer, set the blend mode to color, luminosity mask it so I could tone the shadows differently, and then reduce the opacity of the layer. I'm sure there are a ton of other ways to do it--selective color comes to mind--but that's how I've always done it for something with this global of an appearance. Sep 02 14 04:49 pm Link Thank you for your response! Sep 10 14 02:08 am Link I use a combination of Selective Color, curves, and level layers on photoshop. My end results are usually great. Selective color is an amazing tool for stylizing a photo in photoshop. Sep 13 14 05:07 pm Link This actually looks a lot like one of the stock color look up tables in Photoshop--Edgy Amber. That and maybe a couple quick tweaks to levels or selective color should get you pretty close. ETA--on closer inspection, Edgy Amber is way more yellow than the photo posted above, but it might still help get you where you're trying to go.

Sep 14 14 05:48 pm Link Since the image belongs to creativelive and it has the name pratik on it, it most likely belongs to this course https://www.creativelive.com/courses/ar … ratik-naik where there is a good chance that the guy explains exactly what he did to obtain such result.
