How to take a photo holding the sun

As challenging as it seems, taking a good photo holding the sun is pretty easy. It all depends on one thing- the photographer. As the model, you should just position yourself where you think you might be in good range. Then, the photographer should position themself where the sun falls right into your hands. Don’t expect the lighting to be perfect here. If you want to see the sun, chances are your body will end up dark like in this picture. This was taken on an iPhone 11 Pro Max. 
For those of you who are using a DSLR, it is possible to get the sunset and the person well lit. The key is to set up the camera lighting settings to only show the background, making your body dark. However, to illuminate the body of the model, turn on the flash. Then, the camera will light the background and the flash will light the person. 
Perfect! 
​Happy photo taking!
