I recently got stuck doing photos in a very bright mid day setting, BOOO! It was their only time for photos. The sun was nasty bright. I didn't like most of the photos that I was getting. Shade was not much of an option at all. I just want to here what other people do. Stuff like (ISO, angles, aperture, filters, face position) I don't always have an assistant to hold a shade maker.
Thanks!
