Hey all,
I've just been given £100 in Amazon vouchers from work as a thank you for producing some "outstanding work". Currently I have 2 strobe flashes. (Lencarta S rings I think) with reflective umbrellas (40").
As I am learning, I am only using one of the flashes. As a start, I am taking profile shots for friends and family. Should I look to buying a softbox? From my understanding, it will produce a softer light and help control shadows?
Should I get octagon or square? I doubt I will be shooting full body, so won't need a rectangle for now.
Something like this?

Thanks!
