There is nothing that makes Mario Olvera feel more at home than photo retouching. With immense dedication to his personal projects and nearly a decade of experience working for clients such as Tecate, Neutrogena, and Banorte, he has become a true expert in photo compositing, garnering attention from big names like Adobe.
