"I use Lighttools Soft Egg Crates on almost every shoot to control spill and softly illuminate selective parts of the frame. They pack down really small, travel well, and are an essential part of my lighting kit. Although I use several different sizes, my go-to favorite Lighttools option is a 30° in a Plume Wafer 100 softbox."
