I don't think you'll find many people here who agree with you... These were all shot in the past couple weeks (ignore that stupid copyright watermark). Not wedding images, but my most recent outdoor shots.
Look through the images here... everybody shoots with lightstands outside. All you need is a decent quality stand and maybe a sandbag at the bottom if your flash is particularly heavy. Heck, I've got 10-12 stands. I'd be happy to sell you 1 or 2.

What boulder problem is that, and where? It looks very familiar. I may have done it at one time. Camp Four?
