Hi Cody,
Another thing that is unclear to me is where the images appear
different. Is it on your monitor or on a print or both?

It's unclear from this description if the image in Photoshop is RGB or
CMYK. My bet is you are placing an RGB Photoshop image and the
Illustrator document is set to a CMYK colorspace (NOTE: this is
different from the "color settings". Every Illustrator document is
explicitly set to either RGB or CMYK).
You have to make sure the Illustrator document colorspace matches the
colorspace of the image you are placing. You will either need to change
the colorspace of the Illustrator document BEFORE you place the image,
or convert the image in Photoshop BEFORE you place the image.
Of course, this will only help if you in fact have a mismatch. So be
sure to check whether the Illustrator document is RGB or CMYK.
Ken
