Upptick, thank you for providing that perspective. What I omitted from my first post was the time, date, hours, theme etc. I hope that cleared up some ambiguity that forum members here may have ...

You have your way of doing business, I have my own way. Lets leave it at that.

Thank you, PhotoTeach2. That is a very constructive and educational answer.

Plain english huh? Heres a link to a "plain english" definition http://www.dictionary.com/browse/collaborate Where in it does it say "work with me for free"?

Yes, adding in fill flash is a way of getting proper exposure.  I am intentionally shooting a back lit subject for creative purposes.

Joe, thank you for the advice. As you stated in your question, do I want to expose for the background or foreground. I am intentionally exposing for the background so that means my subject will be ...

I am trying to shoot from the shadow side of portraits where it is back lit or short lit. What is the proper exposure for the shadow and highlight side? What are the typical do's and don'ts of ...
