Can someone give me some advice with studio lighting? I'm looking to purchase a couple of lights to do portraits in my home. I'm not looking to break the bank and really just want the best deal for the money. I was thinking about purchasing a Smith-Victor FL150 to start. I can get the tripod, light, and a 45" umbrella from B&H for $134 USD. Is it worth it?

I shot my first portraits in a friends home a few weeks ago and realized that lighting was everything. Here are some results:



Obviously I did some editing in PS but I still didn't like the original image because my lighting was poor. Any advice would be helpful.
