One should not forget the basics, its all about light and controlling the light and contrast.
Metering, white Balance and all.
US in AZ we take a girl out and use all natural light, if one needs any pro lighting in AZ on a sunny day I would not call him a photographer . Man, you have free light right there in the sky and its the most beautiful light.
Take a girl outside find a very nice colorful area with even contrast. Look for a warm wall to reflect the sun light onto your model, a building, a sidewalk will reflect tons of light onto your subject, always use the SUN as a backlight, to get that golden glow in the models hair and she does not have to squint... lol
Also understand that i shoot girls out in the public, flashing, masturbating, ect.. So i don't have the time to hang out and improve the shot with setting up blackboards and reflectors...
We shoot the naughty public stuff as i mention , sun as a backlight, even contrast areas, and reflective walls, sidewalks, even a car will reflect a lot of light on your subject.
Turn your model away from the sun and you will get more pleasing results!
