It was about noon when the sun is its brightest just like the model's smile!Lighting
This was a natural light photo that I tried various angles before embarking on the perfect light.Equipment

Wanted to capture the model's essence and when she smiled, I knew that was truly her.Editing
I brightened up the exposure a few points as well as minimal saturation.In my camera bag
My Sony a3000, a few extra memory cards, a battery charger and business cards.Feedback
Get to know your subjects and surroundings. It helps capture the best image once you are familiar with them. I chat with my models to see what they like and are comfortable with. Walk around your location and pick out key spots that jump out at you. I usually take a 15 minute walk around any location to feel it out. Makes a world of difference than just going in and not doing a proper walk through.
