    I think that "tree light" absolutely helped in creating depth in the image. It also added more color temperature contrast - cold outside, warm inside. Keep up the good work.

    Yo I love this! There is actually one thing I think could possibly add to the lighting of the scene - An edge light to separate you the actor (you, Brady) from the window a bit and add a little bit of the edge light to the other actor. Either way I love the look of this scene and it came in clutch for something I'm going to be shooting!
