That's what I do, but I tend to use what I have and I have a bunch of speedlights.
I prefer not to mix lighting types: flash vs continuous- and within that category there are CFL, LED, Tungsten quartz.... unless it's for an effect.
You'll still have the modeling light of your main light, the Westcott.
Depends on how the animals react to it.
None of the pets reacted to the flash from the Westcott when I was trying it out so they would probably be fine with a speedlight firing especially if it is in a softbox. Would it be good to start out with a Yongnuo speedlight and if so will I need to buy a controller and transceiver to communicate? I will probably go manual on everything just because it will make me learn what does and doesn't work.
