Here is a little "behind the scene" info about the shoot. We headed out to one of my all time favorite spots, RockWall Ranch, which is just past Garden Ridge. The best light for outdoor photography occurs during the hour before the sun sets, so we got started at about 7pm. Unfortunately, just after we started shooting the sun went behind a big, dark cloud and pretty much stayed there until dark. So I ended up using my flash quite a bit, bouncing it off of a reflector to soften it up.
Don't forget, it is a good idea to ALWAYS have your flash turned on when shooting outdoors, especially in the bright sun. The reason is because the sun creates very dark shadows under the eyes of the subjects, and makes their eyes look sunken in. The flash fills in those shadows and lights up their eyes perfectly.
