Portrait Photography Tip: Use Reflections off of Buildings to Add Extra Punch to a Portrait

If you're a portrait photographer that loves to shoot in natural light and who also lives in a big city, here's a great tip for you. Tall buildings on cities are often reflecting light off of one another and therefore creating a type of specular light. Imagine it sort of like sunlight being reflected off of a mirror. This reflected light acts like a natural photographic reflector and therefore gives subjects a bit of a spotlight look.
