Shooting portraits with window light is great but actually including the window in the background can throw off your cameras metering. In this video Gavin Hoey takes control of the window light to create three different looks.
First he creates a silhouette portrait by exposing for highlights, then Gavin reverses the process and blows out the windows by exposing for the shadows an finally he adds a silver reflector to balance the highlights and shadows to get detail on the model and through the window.
