Disclosed herein is a supplemental flash system, for operation in conjunction with a separate camera having an image capture button, the camera capturing an image of light coming from a first direction. The supplemental flash system includes a support structure receptive of a separate camera; an actuator attached to the support structure in a position proximate to an image capture button of the separate camera when the separate camera is received by the support structure, wherein the actuator, when actuated, activates the image capture button of the separate camera; an actuator control operatively connected to the actuator to control the operation of the actuator to actuate when the actuator control receives an illuminate signal; an illuminator that provides light directed generally in the first direction when the illuminator receives the illuminate signal; and a trigger that is activated by a user, the trigger generating the illuminate signal when the trigger is activated. The illuminator provides light generally in the first direction before the image is captured.
