Lighting: Shot under 100% natural light, at around 5 PM during summer, with direct sunlight, when the sun is still high but beginning to soften—giving a balance of defined and strong shadows with slightly warmer tones.
Diffusion: No diffusion — embracing hard light contrast for a raw, editorial feel.
Color Tones: Neutral whites against warm sand tones for high tonal separation. Deep blue sky used as a clean, contrasting backdrop.
