Lately, Huawei uploaded a series of teaser ads for it’s upcoming Huawei P30 Pro announcement.

The photo with the child in yellow rain coat was taken from this same photo shoot by photographer Jake Olson from a few years ago:

Huawei updated their ads with a disclaimer that they’re creative ads meant for reference only.
