How to take good photos under strong light?

If you follow the light and then overexpose, it's because your exposure is not accurate. If you shoot against the light and your face turns black, then your metering method is wrong.

I want to know what camera you use, digital or traditional. But it's the same. Under the backlight, the portrait is too dark, so you can choose the spot metering mode to measure the exposure data for the face of the person, and exposure with this data can ensure the correct exposure of the person. If it is a SLR camera, it is best to add a hood when backlighting to prevent glare. What, no spot metering? Then, please approach a person to measure the light near his face first, then remember the exposure value given by the camera, and then step back and shoot manually with this value. Of course, a friend said before, you can also add a reflector or use a flash to force the flash (set in the camera).

People are too white when backlighting, so I tell you that there is something wrong with the metering system of your camera.

When the sun shines, people are too dark and white. It's all the fault of the camera.
