Is the Canon Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2 compatible with a 650D?

Hi, I have a 650D and a 550EX and a 430EX. I want to do some off camera flash, with TTL control using one of my flash guns. I know that the 650D has built in wireless flash control and can be used to just fire the external flash but that the built in flash, when firing to control the external flash can be visible in shots where there can be reflections, eg mirrors, water. I plant to do a shoot based around a pool and a mirrored gym so this would be a problem. Could I use a Canon ST-E2? would it work with my 650D? or is there an alternative low cost item such as a Yongnnuo model that would work with my camera and flash gun?  thanks for the advice!
