A photographic lighting dome (10) for holding and directing a light source having a housing (11) of flexible material, the housing (11) having an inner perimeter (12) surronding a central opening (13), and an outer perimeter (14 ). There are a plurality of flexible support rods (20), each support rod (20) having a connecting end (24) and a releasable end (26). A central hub (18) having a plurality of support rod attachment fixtures (42) is positioned in the central opening (13) of the housing (11), where each fixture (42) is configured for receiving the connecting end (24) of one of the plurality of support rods (20). A plurality of channels (22) are formed in the housing (11), extending from the housing central opening (13) to the outer perimeter of the housing (14), each channel (22) being shaped to receive one of the plurality of support rods (20). Each channel (22) further has a central channel opening (32), the connecting end (24) of a support rod (20) passing therethrough for attachement to the central hub (18), and an outer perimeter opening (34), through which the releasable end (26) of the support rod (20) may pass. A plurality of retaining means (36) are positioned proximate to th e housing outer perimeter (14) for releasably capturing and maintaining axial force in each of said support rods (20) in each of the channels (22) to urge the housing (11) into a dome shape. A method of assembling and disassembling the photographic dome (10) is also disclosed.
