Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a detection unit configured to detect a first area from a first image including an area of a face of an object, the first image being an image captured in a state where light is emitted by a flash, and the first area being an area with luminance higher than a first threshold, within the area of the face, and a correction unit configured to determine a second area that is an area different from the first area in the first image, and correct a color of the first area in the first image, by using information about a color of the second area in the first image, wherein the correction unit determines the second area, based on a second image including an area of the face of the object and captured in a state where light is not emitted by the flash.
