Try a shot or two outdoors in natural light. Just avoid strong sunlight, a bright overcast is best. Use a hide box, let the snake crawl inside, then lift and snap a few before it wants to move off. Works real well. Snake pix indoors in a tank or in tupperware, etc. almost never brings out true colors...
