But how does that compare to her statement:

I can fix the problem in photoshop unless there is something truly white in the photo.
That tells me that if something is ALREADY white, a WB adjustment doesn't work. And it doesn't indicate if she can only see the pink hue in the images or all the time.

It could also be color shifts of her lights or something reflecting red back to the backdrop.
