Multiple Flash Photography


Useing a two flash setup with umbrella's on both, Photographing couples standing close, what might be the best placement (in feet) of the flash units from the camera? My guess would be to place the main flash to my right fairly close to the camera, maybe 2 feet away. The fill being on my left approx 3 feet to my left and 2 feet closer to the subjects. The subjects being appx 8 to 10 feet from the camera. Main flash at F11, fill flash at F8. Then I would take a light exposure reading from subject and shoot at the reading. Is this ok or could you suggest a better method.
Thank you.
