I have a wedding to shoot and the theme is country. So the bride and groom
and their friends will be wearing cowboy hats.

Now this will also be outside and all in one location.

Any suggestions on how to get away from the shadows in their faces caused by
these hats or do I blast them with fill flash? I don't want to wash away the
brides whites so I'm really scratching my head here.

Let me know.

Turn the camera upside down so the flash is below the lens. That'll
fill the shadows right under the hat. Awkward though ;-)

If you have an assistant you could also use a few Lite Disc's.
