Hi goons, I was told to post this here, as I'm in a bit of a bind. My band had a promo photo (ugh) taken a few weeks ago to support the release of our new record. The PR company that our label is working with are planning on sending out the press packs in two days time, and have just told us that this picture (the only one we have - we're not a photogenic bunch) is too dark for many publications. Between now and then, we don't have the option to really take a new one, so we're trying to see what can be achieved with what we have currently. I'm not very proficient with photo editing, so I was hoping maybe someone might be able to tell me if this is an impossible task, or better yet have a shot at brightening this somewhat? All I've tried so far is cranking the exposure in an app, which looked very unnatural and made the picture turn out super grainy which won't help either. I have zero knowledge of photoshop, though, and assume that something better (read: not perfect, but at least better) might be able to be achieved there? Anyway, if someone can offer a helping hand I would be grateful beyond belief. The high res image can be found here - https://ufile.io/23fw8 - it should download at 4.9mb or so. Thanks for any help you can provide
