Beauty Dishes

About

A beauty dish sits between a bare bulb and a softbox in character, producing punchier, more contrast-rich light than a softbox while still being softer and more controlled than an undiffused flash head. Its shallow, curved reflector bounces light off a centre deflector plate before it reaches the subject, creating the distinctive circular catchlight glamour and beauty photographers look for. It's a popular choice for close-up beauty, fashion, and glamour portraits where skin texture and a defined catchlight matter more than the fully even wraparound light of a softbox or lantern modifier.
