Sure thing!

Okay, so, two ways depending on if you want to keep the background of your screencap or not.

If not:

Cut the person out (I’ve collected some links on how to remove background HERE if you need it) and put them on a colored background. Color over the clothes and maybe use some color balance to make the person match the background color. I have a tutorial for that HERE. 

That can give you a palette edit like this. You can add some textures between the background and the person and that can give you something like this.

If you want to keep the background:

Just paint over the background with the color you want and set the layer to “color” That’s what I did for this edit. There I also used different shades of blue for different things in the background. Here, I’ll show you:

From bottom to top the blending mode of the color fill layers is: Color and Soft Light for the light blue for the whole background (use the layer mask so the people don’t turn blue). Overlay for the little bit of bench on the right. Color for the plaid shirt and the hoodie. And softlight for both t-shirts.

If you want to “fade” the background (like I did here with the pink Stiles pic) paint over the background and set the layer to lighten or darken – or one of each – and as always adjust the opacity.

I mean, you could try to match the color using color balance and selective color but the good thing about doing edits and not gifs is that you can just paint over everything that doesn’t have the right color and change it to the one you want.

So this was more of an overview general tips kinda thing, I hope that’s okay. If there are any more questions send me an ASK.
