Harlowe and Mark Mann Debut Collector-Grade Signature Lighting Kit That Redefines the Portrait Experience
Harlowe, the creator-forward lighting brand transforming how light is felt and framed, proudly announces the debut of the Mark Mann Signature Kit—a limited-edition, precision-crafted lighting system co-designed with celebrated portrait photographer Mark Mann.
A masterclass in mood and form, the Signature Kit offers a sculptural approach to lighting, engineered for those who understand that portraiture begins not with the lens, but with the light. Only 30 hand-numbered kits will be released globally, making this an exclusive piece of functional artistry.
At the heart of the kit: four Harlowe Blade 10 Spectra units arranged in a modular square configuration, designed to produce Mann’s newly iconic square catchlight—a subtle, cinematic imprint that draws the viewer into the subject’s emotional core.
“When you spend your life capturing people, you realize light is more than what you see—it’s what you feel,” says Mark Mann. “It’s the softness of the shadows, the spark in the eye, the nuance of storytelling. This kit is built to speak that language.”
Created for both portability and performance, the Signature Kit includes V-mount adaptors and a remote control panel with full-spectrum RGBCW capabilities. It delivers over 36,000 customizable colors, 100 levels of saturation, and precise color temperature control from 1,700K to 10,000 K. Magnetic barn doors and frosted domes shape light with intention, while Harlowe’s signature 1-to-5 adapter ensures seamless power distribution and cable management.
Each kit is housed in a striking red vegan leather case, with engraved metal signature plates and individual edition numbering—a nod to craftsmanship, creative intent, and collector-grade elegance.
The Mark Mann Signature Kit retails for $2,399 and is available now at www.harlowe.com and through select Harlowe retail partners.
