Parabolic Umbrellas

Browse parabolic umbrellas at EssentialPhoto & Video — deep parabolic umbrellas designed to produce even, wrap-around lighting with a distinctive, dramatic quality. The deep parabolic shape focuses and controls light more precisely than standard umbrellas, creating a larger, softer effective light source that wraps beautifully around subjects for portrait, fashion, and beauty photography.

Available in silver interior (for a more specular, contrasty output) and white interior (for softer, more diffused light), and with or without a front softbox diffuser for additional light softening. A portable and cost-effective alternative to large softboxes, parabolic umbrellas are a favourite tool for location portrait photographers and studio shooters alike.
