Taking A Photo From The Shade When It's Sunny How Do I Do It? I Have a Nikon D3300?

So I have a difficult situation where I'm taking a photo of a building that has a large awning covering the entrance which needs to be the main focus of the image. I can take the image from the shade across the way under some trees, but it's still extremely difficult to keep from getting photos that are too dark under the awning.

What can be done about this? I've tried playing with White Balance but still can't figure this out?

I could take pictures just fine if I was in the shade (under the awning) but this has to be taken from a distance so you end up with.

Me under shaded trees -> Sunlight Covering everything between me and the building as it's bright out -> the building itself shaded at the entrance with the awning.

What can I do guys any tricks to help from keeping that from getting to dark? I appreciate the help?

Nikon or Canon: Who made prettiest camera(not better, is usefull ask)?

Nikon or Canon: Who made prettiest camera(not better, is usefull ask)?
Added (1). Like I say in the title, THERE NO Way TO SAY WHO IS BETTER!
But, and there is the truth, aesthetics is difference… I think we can only say "I prefer Nikon because feel more 'vintage'".
Or "this function -name- in -name of camera- I think is genial"…

I think this right question, all other is stupid.
I think are both genial, and I think is right TRY to use both if have possibilities!

NOT ASK IN ANYOTHER METODE!
I DON'T WANT TALK ABOUT PHOTOGRAPHER OR BE POLEMIC!
Added (2). CORRECTION: (not better, is useful ask?)

Problems with a camera memory card?

I recently purchased a (used) Nikon D40 camera, which as far as I know is in good condition. However, I purchased a Lexar 633 memory card, and when I put it in the camera it told me to format the memory card, so I did, and now my camera is saying that the memory card is full. My friend put it in her camera and it worked just fine. I was wondering if there was anything I could do to fix this, or if I just got screwed over when buying this camera. I really don't know much about this so I was hoping maybe someone else would! Thanks!
