I think you needed more, especially for #2 (it looks like almost pure ambient). Were you shooting with the flash off-camera ?

Mar 24, 2012 13:02 | #6 The Flash was on camera, but I think I should have dialed up the Flash a little more. It was a learning experience and realizing how much I need to dial up the flash when using the 135 against the sun. Canon G.A.S. Addict |Many Cameras | Many Lenses | Many Flashes |

I'll add: always make a joke about this in a way that emphasizes that everyone has this issue; ladies and goyls can be particularly sensitive about these sorts of things. Alternatively, just say: 'tilt your head up a little please ?"

Mar 24, 2012 13:45 | #9 In looking at the photos again I see what you mean. Thank you for the input. Would I have been better using a reflector instead and using the sun to reflect back on her? Canon G.A.S. Addict |Many Cameras | Many Lenses | Many Flashes |
