a Sony window light would be excellent for simple portraits.

Back to the original question a couple of flash heads and stands 1 OK 2 good 3 better.
a reflector or large sheet of coolite foam.
a couple of white translucent umbrellas.
you can use a histogram as a flash meter but a flash meter is nice.
get a few bits then add to it as you need.

Hi Dug,
There are general 2 types - flash and continuous light. Which is better?
Are third party brands e.g. Jinbei Studio good enough? If i am shooting potrait of 1 to 2
models will a 300W suffice or do i need 500W or more?
