The final shoot took place on the morning of March 13 as planned. The weather was slightly different from the day of the pre-light, no rain.
The technical problems i was faced with using my camera (Canon):
The off camera flash (sunpak) mounted on a stand was working on and off, it was not triggered by the one on camera (Canon 430 EX II), therefore I had to switch my camera with the Audrey's one (switched from a Canon to Nikon) in order- to accomplish my assignment.
By swtiching to Nikon, i faced a different challange: the camera will not sync at a shutter speed higher the 1/200 sec, with the flash. That being said my background was not as dark as i wanted, and the flash was not as strong.
Overall I am ok with the photo-shoot.
Lesson learned: I got home and ordered a flash trigger in order to avoid the above mentioned technical issues.

- Shoot at f8 - 1/200s @ 75mm, ISO 200
- Flash used at full power
- Color balance easy to achieve, the background was grey, so it made it easier
- Used 1 camera (Nikon), 1 flash SB 800 (no beauty dish as initally planned)
- There was just enough available light
