I'm testing my new Canon EOS 6D camera and I've noticed that there is often too much red and yellow color specially when shooting indoor, picture look very warm and de-saturated.
And when you try to get more saturated colors people's faces start to be really reddish or yellow.
Here are photo samples, with Auto WB, indoor lighting was from standard yellow incandescent lamp on BOTH shots:

As for the lenses, Canon 50mm 1.4 and Sigma 35 1.4 are used.
Also when converting RAW files into TIFFs with Digital Photo Professional utility amount of red in image even increased.
Is there any way to reduce amount of red? And gain more natural colors? What settings you use in Digital Photo Professional/Camera RAW/Lightroom software to make colors more vibrant and cooler without excessive amount of red?
My current guess that it is required to use custom color space or custom WB setting to fix this.
Thank you very much for your help.
