Profoto held a one day workshop in London, hosted at 69 Drops Studio in Whitechapel and facilitied by AJ's Studio and Camera Supplies (best place for lighting and support in the UK imho).
The format of the workshop was essentially based around three studio set up's each by a professional published fashion photographer: -
Studio 1 - Hollie Molloy

Profoto led the introduction of the event, and shared information on their latest products, and well supported by the team from AJ's with a fully populated stand and great opportunity to discuss any of the products all day long.
There was also time to grab a few shots with the models using the light set ups from the pro's! I, perhaps a little unconventionally, choose to shoot with a 35mm lens!!
I also had time to have some 'Run and Gun' fun with Profoto's compact flash head, the A2, with and without their well designed clic soft box. Very pleased with the results and will be adding this to my kit!
