Just saying in general I dont shoot that scenario. Shaded area subject facing the sun and bright background. Still interested with the result of that particular shot though. It may work out.

It came out okay, could be better. I'll post up the result once I get home. The only problem was that I did this free for a friend and we did not have a business permit to shoot at this location. I didn't bring my external flashes or reflectors, didn't want to get kicked out. I couldn't get the onboard flash to fill out all the shadows on their face. I basically used the zone system to judge exposure. Typically I wouldn't have problems as I can do faster shutter speed, combine with wider aperture, to expose ambient and flash separately.
