Don\'t over think this. Use a tripod put camera on tripod. Put flash on camera. Use a \"Black foamie thing\" http://neilvn.com/tangents/about/black-foamie-thing/ to prevent flash from spilling forward. Either have someone hold the reflector, use the timer and you hold it or use a remote to fire flash. Under expose by a stop or two. Fill with flash to taste...This shot took 30 secs. If I had a little more time I probably would have brought up ambient a touch more
