Without Eyelighter
Silver Fabric
The most popular Eyelighter fabric due to the very distinct look it gives. Creates a very specular light. Fills in almost all of the shadows under the chin and nose. Produces a very defined highlight in the eyes.
White Fabric
Produces a soft, subtle fill. Retains some shadows under the chin and nose to help add dimension to your subject's face. The highlight in the eye is less dramatic and more natural-looking.
Sunlight Fabric
Creates a very specular light with slightly warmer tones. A mix of both a gold and silver material gives a warm, glowy look to skin tones and the catchlight.
Meet Larry Peters, Portrait Photographer & Eyelighter Inventor
After opening his first family-operated photography studio in 1974, Ohio-based photographer Larry Peters became a leading professional in the senior portrait industry. Larry sought to perfect the art of portrait lighting by designing the patented Eyelighter.
Larry shared his knowledge in workshops and seminars throughout his career, leading to high exposure and demand for his unique reflector. After years of building the product in his garage, Larry partnered with us in 2014. Together we perfected the Eyelighter and made it readily available for photographers around the world.
Durable & Lightweight Components
At 6.8 lbs.(3.1 kg), the Eyelighter 3’s strong aluminum frame provides durability without the weight. The curved reflector measures 54.5 x 24.8 x 21.2 in. (138.4 x 63 x 53.8 cm) fully assembled. It collapses to 33 in. (85 cm) for storage in the included padded carry case.
