Early morning fitness shoot.

PR images need to be hot! (Sorry about the pun!)

It was pretty easy to make these guys look great, though. Taken a few years back, I still think the shots “look the goods”.

I’ve been using Photoshop for 20 years and have often been engaged to perform specialist image compositing and editing. I’d love to hear from you if you’d like some retouching applied to your project.
