@Thomas,

Observing the metadata reveals all. If you look at the shot before it (and it’s metadata), you’ll see that all the settings were exactly the same. She was also shooting AV whilst using an on camera flash. The metadata confirms that a flash was fired. So on camera flash, probably not set properly on the closeup image produces a look that on camera flash does. The further back shot has the same exact settings, was way too dark and she pushed it in post, which is why the blacks got all noisy. then she opened the blacks to create that flarey look. She processed in light room, so I’m guessing she used recovery to do that. It’s also a 7D and those are noisy as fuck!
