So I do photography mostly as a hobby and now and now that it is nearly Spring, I want to start shooting again. I have a couple of friends that want to do some indoor shoots and I shoot a monthly indoor event as well.
But I don't really have a proper flash.
For now, I use a Canon Rebel XSi and I've been using the stock flash which is tiny and inadequate for flashing people with.
But seriously, I need something better. Any specific suggestions? I'd like to upgrade the camera eventually too but for now I think a better flash would help a lot.

Really, the most important thing you need in a hotshoe flash is 1) you need to be able to control the output and 2) you need to be able to completely swivel/turn/adjust the flash head to point it in any direction you want to get proper bounce and fill

The reason I ask is that if you can invest in a remote trigger system and have off-camera flash(es), that will greatly greatly improve your results. But even just getting a hotshoe flash that does the things Sheri listed will do wonders for you.
