Workshop, Golden Hour
Sun behind her, face still readable.
The setup
The main light is the low sun through the window directly behind her, drawing a bright rim on her hair and shoulders. A light haze makes the shafts visible and lifts the lens with a soft veil. A warm bounce beside the camera fills her face, so the eyes never go dark.
On a budget
No lighting kit needed: turn her back to the sun and hold a gold reflector beside the camera. Without a haze machine the shafts fade, but the rim and the fill stay the same.
