Photography Tips: Shoot Into The Light PT1

I love to shoot into the light and where possible, include the sun into the composition. I did just that on a recent photo-shoot for Louise James, inventor of The Buttafly Yoga seat. (link below)
Backlighting and shooting directly into the sun is always eye catching and dramatic, and because of the exposure difference between subject and background, it’s easy to make it bright and clutter free so any overlay will stand out.

But what about those burnt out highlights? If the sky is clear blue with no haze, the sun itself will obviously burn out, but so what? If you look at the sun with your eyes it’s burnt out, even when wearing sunglasses. If it weren’t it’d look weird and un-natural.
