1.
Colour Accuracy
White balance ensures that the colours in your photos accurately represent the scene as it appears to the naked eye. This is particularly crucial in scenarios with mixed lighting, where different light sources can cast unwanted colour casts on your images.
2.
Emotional Tone
White balance can influence the mood and emotional tone of your images. Warmer tones, often associated with sunset or indoor lighting, can evoke a sense of coziness, while cooler tones may create a more serene or futuristic atmosphere.
3.
Consistency
Maintaining consistent white balance across a series of photos is essential for creating a cohesive visual narrative. Inconsistent white balance can be distracting and take away from the overall impact of your work.
