Rim light can add just the element needed to make a nice portrait a good one. What you need is sunlight (basically at any time of the day), some location that can provide you with a dark background and good positioning of the models. Then, it’s all about finding the right balance between the rim light (no overcast) and the subject. These portraits are examples of me finding the rim light.
