Jodi, my new assistant and I got together at my favorite park location for some shooting. Jodi brought her sister Kim and Kim's friend Angela who just happen to be 8 month pregnant. Perfect subject. The evening started out a little overcast but to my surprise turned into a beautiful sunset. You never know. Anyway, Jodi did a great job. About half the images shown are hers.
A couple things. I did not bring a remote light as I would normally for sunsets because didn't expect the sunset. But i brought an on camera flash (Canon 580II). For sunsets I put everything on manual and tweak it until the exposure works. I rarely bring an exposure meter with me anymore. For exposures outdoors I generally go with AV mostly wide open wide open and sometimes Program. But always switch to manual when I want a special look and with the sunsets. We had two cameras. Canon 5D with a 17/40 lens and 1D mark III with a 70/200 IS lens.
