Get an alignment after. Camber does not need to be toyed with too much, but you want to set toe as close to zero as possible to ensure your tires don't wear prematurely. It's nearly impossible to say how much will be affected by the springs without knowing what condition your ball joints and bushings are in- and that varies from car to car. The only real way to figure it out is to get it on an alignment rack and adjusting from that point.

I highly recommend a set of shocks to go along with it. I always recommend Bilsteins, even though they're relatively expensive for a non-adjustable shock, they're benefits are awesome.

I'd hold off on the install until you get shocks. No point in doing it/paying to get it done twice.
