120W sounds pretty low for portrait work.

assuming you are using it for portraits, fit it with any kind of soft box or honeycomb, and it will virtually turn into a twilight... unless you are shooting with a very open lens or high ISO.
then again, there's no right or wrong when it comes to utilising equipments. it is up to your creativity to acknowledge the limitations of your equipment and stretch the possibilities. have fun!
