With the 45 degrees highly reflective design, this gives off a concentrated 1:1 ratio of light, meaning if the light is 5ft from the subject, the diameter of light is 5ft. 10ft distance for 10ft diameter of light. That simple! Want softer light? Throw a diffuser sock for umbrella like softness.

Trusted on set by the very best. Let's go! We got a chance to light up Clint Dempsey last year for a photoshoot.

Excited about tonight's game against Belgium! We used the QPB 36 on each side for main lights.

Hey ya'll, David here!

I'm constantly trying to improve my workflows on set and even with the Cheetah Stand Pistol Stand Mobile Tethering Station keeping everything organized and within reach for me, USB-C tethering was still giving me fits.

I think some of you have felt the same frustration so I wanted to share an alternative workflow that you might like better. Let me know what ya'll think!

Everyone has their own preferred tethering setup. I've used Lightroom for tethering and I've used Capture One for tethering but it has always been on a USB-C cord and now I think I've come to the perfect solution...Ethernet tethering. Hear me out! Here's the problem for me - USB tethering is expensi...

One of the main differences that we're proud of Cheetah Stand is that both Charles and David are actual working photographers. Which means, we put our own equipment thru the torture of a photoshoot. There aren't many other companies testing their gear the same way we are.

Here's David at a commercial shoot using the Super Boom to save his bacon with a large scrim as the sunlight came up. With a mix of the classic Cheetah Stand C12s, Mobile Tethering Station, the Quick Softboxes and Super Boom - the photo team was ready for anything!

Well, we're back from Shutterfest 2026. There’s nothing quite like the energy of seeing old friends and making new ones in an environment where everyone just "gets it."

In our day-to-day work back in our own cities, the creative path can feel pretty solitary. It’s tough to find people in our normal circles who truly understand the specific grind and the creative weight of what we do. That’s why these shows are so essential—they bridge that gap. Being around a community reminds us that we’re part of something bigger. It’s about building those new threads, strengthening our network, and finding that spark again that reminds us why we fell in love with making images in the first place.

Anyways, enjoy the random photos! If you have any of us at our Cheetah Stand booth from Shutterfest, please share in the comments below!
