Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
Just saw a video of Jerry Ghionis photo shoot outdoor where he used his Ice Light LED, and in his post photos I see that he balanced warm ambient street light with his LED that are somewhere around 5500K, and subjects are in warm color. So how can one balance led with ambient without having CTO gel. If he sets custom white balance in camera then the subject would be in proper color but ambient will change.
check 7:35 (notice warm ambient and cool led and end result)

In camera WB is for the entire scene, CTO gel for a particular light source. Without anything to change the light source color, you can try to do it in post. Do you have the link to the video?

Looks like post process work because the screen shot of the back of his camera gave it away. It was very different.
