Do not add artificial light! I have done that with dreadful results. It just KILLS skin-tones. Fill with a reflector. You can use a large white board or a sheet. I have a portable 36" disk , a Photoflex, it has a white and a silver side, that I could not live without. it will reflect some of the light back to the face.

One example of its use is on my site, the girl in the white dress in the pink chair. I filled her face so it would not darken if I wanted to get the landscape detail and bleach out her dress.
