    You might want to try one of the flashes, on a stand (bare) on the shadow side. Basically, you'd have the power set to offset the shadow as much as possible. If that doesn't work, then you might try an umbrella really close with a tighter framing.

    We may give it one more try tomorrow morning alittle earlier and I will bring one flash w/stand. If it isn't windy, I will try the umbrella.

    I did use one flash tonight on camera but not much luck of the shots being any better, first I tried it with an on-camera small soft box and then without.
