Need advice on filming formats

Hi all I’m new to this community and need advice on codec formats for the iPhone (recently upgraded to the 17 pro and got the moment VND and CPL filters). I’m working on shooting a 10 year anniversary video for my wife it will be a short film (3 ish min) most likely one location (maybe 2) shot outdoors with available light in one day. I’m going back and forth between whether or not I need to shoot in pro res raw or am fine with using HEVC and shooting in apple log. I’m not very experienced in color grading but I do want to use this project to get a bit deeper into it. I’m hoping to achieve a more vintage cinematic look. On the other hand since I only have 1 day to shoot im worried about heat and battery management that comes with shooting pro res raw. What I’d love to hear from the community is, if I plan on doing color grading but not extensively so, am I safe to stick with HEVC log to make the filming process easier or will that make the post processing too limited.
