The outside face angle combined with the inside pose would make for an excellent portrait.

I can remember turning her face until I got the suggestion of light on the off side. Had I had my handy foam core reflector I could have easily bounced more light to the shadow side. Then I could have turned her head more as you suggest.
And, yes, the window is too big a bright hole. I also took this same pose with her sister (you heard me) and managed to reduce the bright window. I do like these nice architecturally detailed windows, but just the frames, not the bright light.
As is often the case, you take your first turn with the location, light, subject, clothing, and you gain a lot of knowledge. I think I could go back with my tripod and reflector and have this done before Mr. Ritz or Mr. Carlton knew what hit them.
Still, you could do a couple of head and shoulders from these - in a pinch.
