In the left hand side image you can see that they have used direct light from the sun the shadows on the subjects face appear more harsh her face looks over exposed but I like how the sun has lit her hair making it look more golden.

Here you can see this image looks like it has been taken in the morning with the ambient lighting shining from the left side maybe a window in the kitchen or a door the lighting has fallen onto the subject sitting down with the side of his faced appearing more while shadows darken parts of his clothing. Also the subject standing up has ambient lighting on them with her face darkened by shadows and the bottom half of her clothing lit up by the lighting. The table with everything on it has shadows on it and the ambient light brightens up everything on the table.
