At least once a week I take a scroll through Profoto USA's website. I'm always amazed by the amount of content being shared. One of my most favorite sections is under "Inspiration."

In this profile I ran across this morning, written by Jens-Linus Lundgren-Widén, Chris Knight is shooting cinematic portraits in a story called "Homage to Hollywood." There are too many great images to share here, so just click on any image to see all the photographs and read the complete story.

Check out more of Chris Knight's work with a visit to his website. The minute you land on his home page, you'll be hit with stunning portraiture by an artist who NEVER compromises on the quality of his images, or his gear.

What I love about these inspirational stories is the way Profoto is sharing outstanding content. Each story introduces you to another artist.

At the same time, they're sharing creative ideas to help you build a stronger skill set of your own, and helping you understand how much depth is in their accessory line to add to your creative tools.

The images are beautiful, but for me, I love the behind the scenes components, including the short video below.

Chris shares a lot of great content in this video as he takes us through all the ingredients to create the images. Then the article fills in the holes with images of the set Chris built, along with links to the various components.

I've written this so many times before...

Profoto isn't just building some of the finest lighting gear in imaging today, but helping to build some of the best artists and in turn, stunning images.

Check out Profoto's D1 along with their Off Camera Flash Systems with the new B1x and B2. It's a quick click to their website, but even better to stop in to a Profoto Dealer or Rental House for a "test drive." Just click on the link below.
