🌤 A portrait session with only one window and no backup plan.


We lost power halfway through the shoot. No strobes. No tether. No heater.

🛠 The Edit
Cooler tones. Highlight recovery to bring back the whites in her shirt. That was it.

💡 What It Taught Me
Simplicity isn’t second-best. Sometimes it’s the only thing that cuts through the noise.
