Profoto, the Light Shaping Company
Nowadays, the products from Profoto are used by professionals, serious 'amateurs' as well as hobbyists. Whether it is a photo on a billboard or in a fashion magazine, there is every chance that this image was made with the aid of one of the Profoto lights. Profoto is continually refining its products on the basis of the ideals from Eckhard & Conny: the products must not only look good, feel good as well as sound good, but at the same time the shape must display its function.
In this way, Profoto products are not obstacles, but solutions focused on the practice, which help to realize your ambitions as a photographer. It is with good reason that Profoto calls itself the 'Light Shaping Company' And fair is fair, they really live up to this name!
Profoto history in a flash
Profoto was founded in 1968 in Stockholm by photographer and engineer Eckhard Heine and photo retailer Conny Dufgran. This collaboration began when Conny sold a flash to Eckhard which did not work. Eckhard was so irritated by the defect device that he went home to invent a new type of flash. A few weeks later, he went back to Conny and showed him the wonderful new flash. A few years later, they were standing at the Photokina in Cologne with their Pro-1 generator. This turned out to be a great success and Profoto was born with a bang.
