Natural light is tough! I have never been able to get amazing natural light shots like I see others post on here, I have to bring my own light....

Sure. Here's the last with no PP.
QUOTED IMAGE

I just edit the picture on a new layer and keep the original pic on the 1st layer..

Then I take the edited layer and bring the opacity down until I am happy that I have helped the skin without losing its natural texture.

And don't be worried about blowing out the sky.

If the face is exposed correctly, you will be surprised what you can get away with.

An example:

IMAGE NOT FOUND
HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'image/gif' | Redirected to error image by FLICKR

Estera5.jpg (external link) by mtimber1971 (external link), on Flickr

In retrospect, even this could have gone a bit brighter in the face.

All lighting natural light.
