The latest Mercedes S-class campaign by photographer Uli Heckmann has a natural, editorial look - the idea was to create each image in a single shot. The location is the ultra modern winery Bodegas Portia in Spain, designed by iconic British architect Norman Foster who was also responsible for Manhattan’s Hearst Tower, London’s City Hall and Berlin’s Reichstag. 

Without interfering with the authentic style, our post team in Stuttgart cleaned up the reflections to emphasise the vehicle's distinct body lines. Finally they tweaked the colours, shadows and background to create a perfect balance. The clients were extremely happy with the results which are currently making an impact across major German news publications as multi-page foldouts. See this project on our website here.
