hey guys i have been asked to do some beach portraits for a family member. she wants them done at the beach of her, her boyfirend, and her daughter. pretty much just gonna go out there catch up and have some fun... oh and take some shots :D so i was planning on bringing dome difussion, reflectors, my 285hv, and 430exii and the rest of the normal gear. any thing im missing? i was thinking jeans and white dressy kinda shirts. headin up early in the morning getting there before the sun rises (when there is light but no harsh sun) and shooting in that, then when the sun comes up grabbing some flash and adding some fill. anything i should go over before we head out? pretty much im just looking for pointers and to see if i missed anything. thanks guys

I would check the weather before I head out ;-) Plan an alternative location and be flexible! Have you scope out the location yet?

Cordially,
Ben

Be careful of the gear also so easy to damage things on the beach
