Using Pocketwizards
Pocketwizards: This is my current setup x2. At most Weddings, I'll use two Nikon SB-26 flashes (Nikon make the BEST flashes, hand over fist) with a pocketwizard attached to each which I'll place near the dance floor at the reception. One to the far left and far right, just slightly angled upward and set to 1/16th power. I'll always have two Canons around my neck with Canon flashes that have Pocketwizards velcroed to the top of them. Some photographers will simply use the PW on the hotshoe but when you do that, you lose your on-camera flash. I'll keep the flash attached as the main flash plus the PWs will trigger the other two flashes simultaneously that are used as fills. Hope this helps and like anything else, try it out, see what you like then personalize it to the way you would use them. Check out the Litedome Q39 that I use also.
