Elinchrom 75′ Octabank
Go to modifier for even light or lighting a big space. I call it sun on a stick. You can really control the look just by the angle you place it an whether you use diffusion in from or not from insanely soft to more punch than Mike Tyson – and they won’t bite your ear.
Profoto Beauty Dish
Soft light with a punch – I love how these look blended with daylight. They also save the day on a windy Miami day when your assistant would fly off to Kansas if they were holding an Octabank.
Profoto Honeycomb Grid for Softlight Reflector
This grid for the Beauty Dish above maintains the softness but funnels the light into a bean of soft light that looks like a Fresnel spotlight.
Profoto Zoom Reflector
The great thing about Profoto’s reflector design in that they can push forward or back on the flash head and you can really control the throw with the zoom reflector foam wide-and-even to a tight spot of light.
Profoto Magnum Reflector
Profoto’s most efficient reflector. Great for everything from arena lighting to portraits with up to 2-stops more output than the zoom reflector.
Profoto 32 Degree Narrow Beam Reflector
Profoto narrow beam reflector is just what you need if you need and incredibly efficient reflector to cast a small beam of light a long distance. Great for lighting to portraits with a thin beam of light.
Matthews 12×12′ White Artificial Silk
If I had to pick just one diffusion option it would be a 12×12′ silk. I use these to diffuse for everything. I’ll hang one in front of my fill light or is front of a window or doorway.

Matthews RoadRags II Kit – 24×36′
If you need a set of flags, cutters and silks when you’re on the road, you can search for a local grip house or take these with you. They duplicate studio lighting effects on location, using elastic corded frames they easily fold with a simple flick of the wrist. Single and double scrim cut the light. Flags act as a gobo to totally block light. Artificial silks softens the light.
