Western

Fringe, plaid, and the last light on a long road.

Western style photographs as texture under big sky: suede fringe, worn denim, plaid, tooled leather. The cowboy hat is the anchor — brim shadows are part of the lighting plan, so tilt it and meter for the eyes. Boots must look walked-in; new-boot shine breaks the story.

Gravel roads, fields and weathered wood are the sets, golden hour is the only hour. A fringe jacket in backlight is the frame the whole shoot exists for. Keep the palette dust-toned: tan, rust, denim, cream.
