Greywolf - many thanks for the comment! The last three or four that I've done I tried a totally different approach to outdoor lighting (after camera angle, DoF, etc are set up):

No pre-packaged lighting
Turn camera floodlight off
Iray environment setting to "scene only" (at this point a render will look pitch black)
Add one Speedlight Sun (default is 100%), unlock its parameter settings and drive intensity to about 30,000% to 45,000% and adjust to desired angle.
Add one SpeedLight Fill, and set to match closely to Speedlight Sun mentioned above.
Click "Render: :)

I also thought the lighting was better (more photo-like). But, I probably could have increase the intensities a bit more.

Cheers!
