Normalizing color among a number of photos taken in different lighting

[arichards]

I am assembling a class photo with images taken with different cameras at different times.  I've laid everything out in designer, but I'd love to be able to go through a simple process of making the photos look a bit more consistent.  Any pointers would be so appreciated!

What do you mean by consistent?

Is it the face tones you want all the same, and if so do you want them all to be grayskins or redskins?

There is no magic overlay that would correct all images, the best option would be to pick an image you think looks "normal" and try to match its tonal qualities to the others using adjustment filters like HSL. Having a background that matches some of the skin tones probably doesn't help either.

Thanks.  I edited every image last night and I think brought them a lot more in line.  I feel better about the final product.  Now.  HSL is a great suggestion.  I will try that for final touches!
