For Donna, lighting is crucial, and can be the difference between an appealing, flattering shot and something that looks unnatural and unappetising. Originally shooting entriely with natural light, the overcast climate in the UK can pose some challenges. Venturing into the world of continuous lighting using a Rotolight Neo2 for filler light, has lead Donna to become the newest member of the Rotolight Masters of Light team
