One of the best places to shoot a silhouette is against a window.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a photo <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">accentuates shadows and darker regions of the frame<\/span>, the photo <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is c<\/span>alled<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201clow-key.\u201d Many photographers have used low-key lighting to great effect over the years, and silhouette photography is one of the quickest ways to achieve this style. By experimenting with window silhouettes, you\u2019ll be able to create a unique low-key portrait easily and without complicated equipment.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several ways to expose a silhouette. In this article<\/span> are <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">two techniques <\/span>on how to photograph a silhouette,<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that can be accomplished b<\/span>y <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">any camera<\/span>.

There\u2019s a bit of light on her face\u2014just enough so you can see her eye and some details on her fingers and blouse. This is a profiled silhouette, and it is shot at a slight angle to the window rather than straight on. The face picks up light reflected off the surface of the cup and her hand.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Example of Profiled Silhouette<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The photographer exposed for the details on her blouse, which means the background is blown out.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-76787\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/profiled-silhouette.jpg\" alt=\"Profiled Silhouette \" class=\"wp-image-76787\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/profiled-silhouette.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/profiled-silhouette-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by Molly Blackbird on Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a case you can use a typical digital camera\u2019s limited <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/dynamic-range-photography-explained\/\">dynamic range<\/a> to your advantage. The sunlit outside beyond the window overexposed and appears as pure white. Film might have picked up some distracting details.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exposure: In a high-contrast scene like this, the detail in the subject\u2019s shirt add important texture, and so it is best to take a meter reading off the shirt. You may need to add contrast in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/post-production-mistakes-to-avoid\/\">post-processing<\/a> to get rid of any detail that might show up in the shadows or the bright window.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Photograph a Silhouette<\/span> That&#8217;s Pure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the second example, the girl\u2019s profile is in complete shadow. Because there\u2019s no detail seen in her features, we call this a pure silhouette. In this case, the photographer exposed the image for the lighting outside the window, casting the girl in complete darkness. In some cases, pure silhouette can also create a bit of an optical illusion. With only a silhouette to provide visual information, it\u2019s hard to know if the girl is facing toward the camera or away from it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Example of Pure Silhouette<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-76797\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/pure-silhouette.jpg\" alt=\"Pure Silhouette \" class=\"wp-image-76797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/pure-silhouette.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/pure-silhouette-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by Tomas Jasovsky on Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exposure: Meter for the correct exposure for what is outside the window. You can do this automatically by simply pointing the camera out the window and using the suggested exposure. If you want to do this manually, use the \u201csunny 16 rule\u201d and dial in a correct exposure for the outside lighting conditions. So, if it\u2019s a sunny day outside and you\u2019re shooting at ISO 100, the exposure would be 1\/100 sec at f\/16\u2026or 1\/250 at f\/11, or 1\/500 at f\/8, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, go find a window, turn off your flash, and learn how to photograph a silhouette yourself!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Featured Image by Joe Shields on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/\">Unsplash<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A silhouette reduces an image to dramatic areas of light and dark.
