that is the most controllable way. otherwise, two exposures, one for the people and one for the dark blue skies, and blend in Photoshop. or, you could just shoot without regard to sky and replace with artificial skies. there are plugins in Photoshop just for this purpose, once you mask off everything but the sky. if all else fails, you can buy stock photography of dark blue skies and clouds and blend. this is advertising, so anything goes. change way more for this.
