A little fill flash would do the trick most likely.

I would suggest using your single 430 EXII with a Better Beamer from Visual Echoes....set your flash to ETTL and dial in about -2 1/3 stops as a staring point.

The Better Beamer is a relatively inexpensive accessory that works wonders with flash.
