Default Outdoor portrait tips & tricks needed

Hello, I have arranged a session with a model for next sunday 25th, I gave a week's time to prepare.

The session is going to take place in a park, at a very nice spot where there is a really beautiful waterfall. She will be wearing a loose shirt, a pair of jeans, and under a bikini.

It is kind of a poorly lit environment, since it is covered by trees and loads of foliage, but light does get trough. I am not certain, but I believe that studio lights are out of the question (no A/C outlets). I was thinking about getting a wind blower to play with her hair, but again, no power.
  • do you guys have any tips on how to improve light on a subject in poor lighting conditions?
  • how about tips on composition in the woods?
  • about photographing people and water?

that would really help me out
Thanks in advance
