Photography and videography lighting falls within two main categories – interior studio lighting and location lighting, using continuous or flash modes. For the greatest versatility from any new light kit choose a lightweight solution with portable power. This gives you a system which works both in a studio and for location shoots.
A camera flash is the most portable option for portraits, fashion and to light smaller backgrounds, and can be used for studio and on-location photography. We have flashguns (speedlights) compatible with all camera brands, together with transportable light stands and flashgun accessories to refine your light output. Add a diffuser or flash gel for creative options, and take lighting to the next level with off-camera flash triggers and receivers.
Choose from our range of increasingly popular LED photography lights, which add the benefit of emitting both continuous and high speed flash output, often in millions of colours. This enables video and stills creators to use a single light, with compact portable models for location work along with the power required for elaborate studio shoots.
Whether you’re a working professional or enthusiast who enjoys capturing portraits of friends and family we have the perfect solution. Shop for complete photography light kits from industry leaders Profoto, Rotolight and Elinchrom, as well as Manfrotto who design a vast range of accessories for any creative situation. Enjoy free delivery on orders over £50 as well as a six-month warranty on most used camera accessories.

The best wedding photography lighting can be as simple as a collapsible reflector, which can be held in one hand while you shoot, to more elaborate off-camera lighting using a speedlight or LED light. For the most flattering results soften light with a compact flash softbox or larger softbox.

LED lights are good for photography for several reasons. Firstly, they draw far less power, which is ideal when using batteries and most models offer both continuous and flash modes for shooting stills and video. Many include HSS (High Speed Sync) as well as virtually unlimited colours with RGBWW output.
