The pictures are pretty small, but unless you have modifiers, your going to want to choose a kit with at least some kind of umbrella or soft box for your main light. If you have a reflector, or a piece of white board that would work as a fill light.. and maybe a separation light. So you could get away with 2 and a board.. or 3 lights. But depending on what your shooting, might want to make sure you have some kind of soft box or umbrella
