Photo Color Variation with 4color Printers

Post Body

Hey everyone! So an issue presented itself at work today with another designer's work. Our in-house photographers are very much of the mindset "these photos are my art" with everything they do. They edit their own files for color and shoot everything very specifically and they complain like crazy if anyone messes with "their art". Well, some hard copy assets came back from the printer and there was a fairly dramatic color shift in their image to yellow/orange. To be honest I'm no color expert. All I tend to worry about is appropriate color spaces for end-use, ie CMYK for print and RGB for digital. None of us work with calibrated monitors and don't use any specific ICC profiles for specific printers. So my question is this. Is there anything further I can do to ensure that the colors we see on screen will be what's produced? Or is there any recommended reading to educate myself further?
