What kind of camera are you using? Can you upload a few photos so we can see what they look like.

Photography is an "art" my dear. There's a reason some photographers get paid a lot of money. It's all in the eye. Some people have the ability to see and "compose" a great looking shot. Anyone can take a good technical shot. You need "talent" to take great shots.

Study the photographs you really like. Sit back and be objective about what you like in the picture. Depth of field. Lighting. Color. Contrast. Composition. Then just copy it.

@saroj12 Takes fabulous pictures. I think she steals them all.

Looks like a large issue is the indoor lighting


Do you have an external flash to help at all?

yes but it washes everything out..it vastly screws with photos

Is it a DSLR or a point and shoot?

What camera are you using?

Does your camera allow you to set white balance? If so, use it. When you are shooting with a flash, set the white balance for flash. That allows the camera to adjust the colors to avoid washing things out. What processing software are you using? Any decent software allows you to adjust white balance for flash, florescent lights, etc.
