John Russo - Celebrity Photography: V-Flat Review

When it comes to capturing the essence of Hollywood’s elite, celebrity photographer John Russo knows that the right tools can make all the difference. John, who has photographed some of the world’s most famous faces, swears by one versatile piece of gear that’s become an essential part of his toolkit: V-Flats.

We're absolutely honored by the great review he gives us in this video. Give it a watch to find out how John uses our V-Flats as subtractive cards to reduce light, as addition cards to bounce light, as flags to control light direction, and even as backdrops in black or white.

"We take V-Flats on every single shoot," he shares. What sets V-Flats from V-Flat World apart, according to John, is their portability and ease of use. Unlike traditional V-Flats, which can be cumbersome and difficult to transport, ours are designed to be compact and foldable. John raves about their convenient size, stating, "Usually V-Flats are gigantic, and these are really small. You can fold them down or make them large, and they're easy to transport." For a photographer who’s constantly on the move, this feature is a game-changer.

John’s recommendation? Don’t just stop at one. “Get yourself one, two, three, or four – load up because they’re great!”
