   Jillian,

   The simple answer to your question is that you can get started with just a light stand, a studio strobe or "hot light" and the softbox itself. These items often come together in a lighting kit at some cost savings.

   There are several things to consider when purchasing your first setup. Much of those considerations can be found on the articles here at StudioLighting.net! I suggest you start with the following article:
