Hi all, my first foray into the lighting section!

A friend of mine has asked me to do some promo shots of his band soon, most likely going to out and about somewhere in London.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to want to get my flash off-camera for this....and wanted some thoughts on the best approach.

I've got a single 430EX at the moment, and from what I've read, a sensible approach would be to add a 580EX to be able to trigger the 430, and add a softbox/diffuser from FiTP....then either rope in the g/f to hold it or get a Konig stand for it?

Or would I be better off getting some cheap flashgun(s) and triggers from FiTP?
 
it seems a bit much, i would start of using the 430ex and get a off camera flash cable which I think FiTP sells, and use a spare tripod to pop it onto because the flashguns end of the cable should also have a tripod mount. then your GF could hold a reflector if needed.
