The "color temperature" of the light you photograph in might influence things. Outdoor light actually is heavily blue-tinged, so red objects don't show up well photographically. Indoors, fluorescent lights come out greenish (likewise hosing red colors), while incandescent lights are orangish (making all skin tones kind of blend together). We don't notice this because our brains automatically compensate for the difference. But, if you try moving directly from a dark, indoor room to a bright day outdoors, you'll see it.
If you use a film camera, there are colored filters available that compensate for the color differences just like the brain does. Digital cameras generally have programmed modes to compensate--look for "outdoor" and "indoor" settings in your manual.
If all else fails, scan the photo and manipulate its color balance in an image-editing program. You can eyeball the settings to reproduce what you saw.

Manipulate its color balance? Isn't that cheating? I underwent great pain for my sunburn shot.
My advice, prnleia222: a few more hours in the sun.
