You'll find that the light is constantly changing. Some days you will be closer to the window than others. Ideally you will have some sort of fill light on the shadow side. This can be hand held by a third person or something jury rigged. Even the light you used above can work, it's color influence will be minimal (and sometimes beneficial) in the face of all that window light.

Just know that each time you set someone in your space adjustments will need to be made. Soon though, you will begin to develop a mental envelope that you will feel comfortable moving within.

The more thought and planning you put into your images, the more artful they become, and, the fewer difficult decisions will need to be made later, and the quicker your heart will thump.
