What if I put camera on tripod. Ask an asisstant to hold the translusent reflector or umbrella. Make a shot exposing for model. Then just take away asisstant and model and take another shot with - 1 exsposure and then just combine in photoshop? In case if I don't have flash and big softbox or two windy. This way the model will be 1 stop brighter than background. Or reflector with a speedlight in hands. In that case just one shot.
What you are describing is HDR using 2 shots. It's okay for real estate photography or landscape where you want 'even' light across the image, but in a portrait you want some drama (unless you don't) and the flash provides that contrast between the left and right side of the subject.
Great Video
