Hardrock, why will she get a better result with the 70-300? Just wondering. Thanks!
You will probally get the best results using your 70-300. I would use Aperture priority and use the smallest F-stop ie:1.4 or in your case at the long end F5.6 That way you can get some seperation from the subject to the back ground. Also the further the background the more OOF it will be. If using spot metering it may blow out some of the image depending on the lighting. So if you wanted to switch back to manual to try and save some of it you could or use exposure compensation. I would start in Av and see how it goes. Be careful in alot of sunlight it will cast a shadow under the eyes or anywhere on the face so you may want to bring your flash or a reflector to help bring out the eyes.
As far as quality of the image I have no experience with those lens. But with kit lens that are not very fast it is hard to get a lot of seperation from the subject to background, But if you use a longer focal length like the 200 to 300 range it is easier to seperate your subject from the background.
