Abstract: A simple, effective apparatus and method for directing light from a swivel flash head at positions above a camera lens unit when the camera is oriented in horizontal and vertical camera orientations is provided. Lighting is provided for a camera having a camera lens unit by mounting a swivel flash head on the camera and attaching a reflector to the swivel flash head. The reflector is preferably mounted to the swivel flash head by removably attachable fasteners, such as, Velcro fastening strips. In one embodiment, the reflector is an integral "shell" reflector. The shell reflector has a neck region for mounting the reflector to the swivel flash head and a reflective region for redirecting light emitted by the swivel flash head to illuminate a camera field of view. The reflective region can further include shaped contoured regions for producing a soft, diffuse light of portrait quality with less harsh shadow. An asymmetric shape adds fill light.
