yes, that would be a possible solution. Probably better would be to use 
objects - it's at least more in the OOP way of extbase - but a 
multidimensional array is also fine if that works for you.

array {
  0: {
     file: 'logo.jpg',
     caption: 'Logo'
  }
  ...
}

<f:for each="{reference.images}" as="image">
  <f:image src="uploads/pics/{image.file}" alt="{image.caption}" 
width="{settings.view.image.width}" />
</f:for>
