Hedvig Wessel – Peak Performance x Goretex

free ski world cup winner 

It's rare to receive black & white concepts, but I love it when I do. This was a really fun shoot with Hedvig Wessel, the current Free ski World champion. Shots were taken in a Studio we built inside the GoreTex Headquarters. We used Special EFX for Rain and Snow. And Hedwig jumped through an artificial rain and snowstorm for us.
