The professional’s secret for perfect skin tones.
The SunSilver/White reflector is Profoto’s most sophisticated reflective surface. Unlike traditional gold reflectors that can look overly orange, or silver reflectors that can look cold and metallic, SunSilver is a unique “zebra” weave of silver and gold. It provides the high-output “punch” of silver but with a subtle, healthy warmth that flatters all skin tones.
SunSilver Side (The “Healthy Glow”): This side is designed to mimic a light, natural tan. It increases light output significantly—perfect for overcast days—while adding just enough warmth to make skin look vibrant and “sun-kissed” without looking artificial.
White Side (Neutral Fill): The reverse side offers a standard, clean, neutral bounce. It’s the go-to for standard portraits where you simply want to lift the shadows without adding any color or contrast.
Precision Handling: Featuring Profoto’s signature sturdy twin handles, this reflector is easy to “feather” (aim the edge of the light) and stays stable in the hands of an assistant, even in light wind.
No-Sag Frame: The high-tension spring-steel frame ensures the fabric stays tight. A taut reflector means a predictable light beam, which is crucial for consistent catchlights in a subject’s eyes.
Selecting Your Size
Medium (M) – 80cm – Beauty & Headshots: Perfect for filling in shadows under the chin (clamshell lighting) or for solo photographers who need to hold the reflector themselves.
Large (L) – 120cm – Editorial & Full-Body: The size of choice for location fashion shoots. It creates a large enough “key” or “fill” source to cover a standing model from head to toe.
