Services Involved
My Role & Contributions
The trio commissioned me to design a promotional graphic to represent their group. Working from a smartphone photo taken by Lars Stenman, I used advanced image manipulation techniques to extract the three members and place them in a serene, imagined seashore setting. I refined and unified elements such as clothing, water reflections, colors, and lighting to create a cohesive and dramatic visual.

The final image has since become their official band poster, widely used both online and in print.
I also produced a black-and-white version and one featuring only two of the three members, representing a duo.
See the original photo on which my edit was based and the two variants of the promo poster in the gallery below.
