As a professional photographer, I must commend this article for its insightful and practical advice on creating stunning portraits using window light. The tips provided are exceptionally well-explained and useful, making them valuable for both beginners and experienced photographers.

The emphasis on soft, natural lighting, as well as practical guidance on positioning subjects and avoiding harsh sunlight, are particularly noteworthy. Suggestions such as using a large window for softer light and incorporating reflectors to manage shadows are both easy to implement and highly effective. Moreover, the detailed explanation of creating captivating catchlights is a standout aspect of this piece.

I also appreciate the encouragement to explore different lighting angles and experiment with candid photography, which fosters creativity and innovation in portrait photography. Overall, this article is a fantastic resource for anyone looking to elevate their skills in capturing beautiful, natural light portraits!

These are some amazing tips, thanks for sharing! Also don't forget about portrait cropping rules, as sometimes an overall nice shot might be ruined by the wrong approach to cropping. There is a great article about it, too https://photo-works.net/portrait-cropping-rules.php

In reply to Laura. Ooo, this is an oldie but a goodie! 3 years old, but my comment, if not inappropriate, may help someone. Take a 5-in-1 reflector. It doesn't have to be humongous large, and use the black/white section to block the light from whatever angle you think is best. If you are so lucky, have your voice-activated, carbon based reflector stand(live assistant, one each) hold it for best effect.
