Vogue Adria, Split: Photo Kit for a Four-Day Shoot
Vogue Adria
Vogue Adria, the regional edition of Vogue, shot a fashion story in Split from 30 May to 2 June 2026. Its producer called us on 25 May, and four days later the kit was booked and paid: tethering gear, flashes and triggers, light shapers, grip, and wardrobe rails and a steamer. The team arranged to collect the kit on the evening of 29 May and return it on 2 June.
For Vogue Adria's four-day shoot in Split, we supplied tethering gear, Godox flashes with a matching trigger, light shapers and wardrobe equipment.

The Challenge
Vogue Adria's production team needed a full photo and production kit for a shoot in Split within days. The photographer normally works with Profoto flashes, and we could not confirm that our Godox triggers would work with them.
Our Solution
We built the list with the producer item by item and swapped the flash system as a whole: Godox flashes, Godox triggers and Bowens-mount light shapers that all work together. The team collected the kit themselves on the evening before the shoot.
What was the job?
A four-day fashion shoot in Split, with part of the team travelling from Paris. The production team needed photo gear and production equipment from a local supplier.
What did the shoot need?
- A complete kit in four days, from first call to collection.
- Flashes the camera can fire. The photographer usually shoots with Profoto flashes. Our flashes are Godox, and the two systems do not reliably work together.
- Tethering, so the shots go straight from the camera to a laptop on set.
- Production gear beyond the camera: clothes rails with hangers, a steamer, sand bags, extension cables and waterproof bags for personal items by the sea.
What did we do?
Building the list
The producer sent a first list on 26 May. Over the next two days we went through it item by item: which hangers, how many rails, which printer, whether a waterproof bag was meant for the camera or for personal items. On 28 May the photo list arrived, and on 29 May we sent it back as a priced list, first in Croatian and then in English so the team could check it.
Solving the flash problem
The list kept a Profoto-style setup but dropped the Godox trigger. Without that trigger, our flashes could not be fired at all. We checked: some photographers get Godox triggers working with Profoto flashes, others lose functions like TTL, the automatic flash metering. So, after a call with the producer, we kept the whole set in one system: Godox flashes, a Godox trigger, an on-camera flash and Bowens-mount light shapers, the mount our flashes use. If the locations had no sockets, we offered an EcoFlow battery station.
The kit
The list the producer sent on 28 May covered tethering gear for a Canon 5D Mark IV, flash triggers and batteries, light meters, a light-bridge kit, stands and clamps, polyboards and sand bags. On 29 May the team marked what to keep and what to drop, and asked for a large diffuser. We added a tripod option. On the production side, they confirmed one rail with a full set of hangers, one steamer and three waterproof bags.
In plain terms: tethering means connecting the camera to a laptop with a cable, so every shot appears on screen at once. A trigger is the small transmitter on the camera that fires the flashes. A light shaper (softbox, diffuser, reflector) changes how hard or soft the light falls. Grip means supports such as stands and clamps. Polyboards are boards for reflecting or blocking light.
