Yeah, idk. That seems like an awful idea to me. I’m not sure why she would shoot with an iPhone for such a job unless she got paid by Apple. Some practical reasons:

- Such an important moment is something you often wanna blow up in a large/hi-res print.

- An ultrawide lens is suboptimal for portraits and usually makes the face look puffy from the perspective.

- Unless you know the exact color & aesthetic for the cover you want to preserve the raw capture for changes in post to match the vibe.

While I can certainly appreciate the casual and intimate vibe she’s going for, as a pro she could have brought any decent camera with a portrait lens and keeping the shoots equally short without compromising quality and adding risk for the poor layout person who has to work with it later.
