You need to set a custom white balance... white card... menu/white-point-set new (however it is on your camera) shoot white card under lighting condition... presto.

A mixture of natural light bulbs and regular bulbs can sometimes mimic sunshine if you get the mix right. A lot of times the back drop or predominate color in the room can determine what color will show the most. I use adjustable floor lamps and avoid the over head when taking posed shots... it's the best I can do being broke and all

I did turn the overhead lights off, this time I used a off white backdrop instead of my black/grey one. I probably should have stayed with the darker one. and I didnt even think about checking my setting of my camera

but I got some good suggestions that I think will help me out

Thanks!!!

Brz above has given you most all of the info but your camera probably has adjustment for it
in the manual modes somewhere

Incandescent tend to shift to yellow
Fluorescence push it to green
(humm possibly blue too)

Halogens if memory serves go more toward orange

I did have a page on it but cant find it

here's a couple that may help
