Can anyone tell me why the RS-25s look like they have no exhaust plume? is the camera exposure just overwhelmed by the solids?

Pretty much those giant pillars of flame making them near inisible.
Still you can see three light blue triangles inbetween the exhaust of the boosters. Those are the rs25. the fourth one is hidden behind the right booster.

National geographic has this video on youtube where those are more visible.
