On Stella CL Lights:

I originally bought the Light & Motion Stella Pro 5000 3-Light Kit for my fine art underwater photography. I love how durable the lights are and easy to work with. I started using my Stella lights for my above water/ studio shoots. I instantly fell in love with how quick and easy I could control and shape light. My Stella lights help to create a unique style to my work and add a cinematic touch.
