I guess it’s finally time to embrace LED lighting for photography. Flash has been great for a long time, and it does have its place, but when it comes to flexibility and balancing available light, LED is the way to go. While the direct flash look is making a comeback, I've always preferred the ability to create natural-looking images. LED lights have been on the market for some time; it just took a while for them to become a solid part of the toolkit.

The Aputure MT Pro mini LED tube light was used in this photo. I intentionally warmed it up a bit to enhance the blue hue of the fridge lights in the final image. Bianca kindly held the light to the left and up high
