What I want to do more is the type of outdoor portrait where you need to control the lighting. For instance, backlit subjects that you don't want silhouetted, so you use strobes or reflectors. Something where you are blending natural light with artificial light outdoors. I've only tried it once or twice and failed each time. Time to step it up.
This type of thing:

(Maybe change the title of the thread to Outdoor Portrait with Mixed Lighting? I want it to have both existing lighting and your own lighting. (outdoor lights plus your own light, sun + your own light, etc.)

I just signed up for this course. I'd love to try this challenge, before and after.
ON LOCATION LIGHTING TECHNIQUES

When shooting on location, there is available light and the light the photographer creates using strobes, flash, softboxes, umbrellas, gels, flags and more. Knowing how to manage all of this is the key to turning your ordinary photograph into an extraordinary photograph. In this five-week course, students will develop a strong understanding of all the tools needed for on-location lighting by learning in the field. After an introduction to the equipment, students will spend most of the class time photographing at various locations around the city. At the conclusion of this class students will feel confident in using available light with strobe lighting kits in a variety of conditions. No prior experience with strobes is neces |

Done. May I suggest:
Outdoor Portrait with Mixed Lighting:
Shoot a portrait outdoors using two or more light sources (natural, reflected, or artificial). |
