Recently, I had the pleasure of working with a new bourbon bar that happens to be my studio neighbor, the 70/70 Club in Springboro Ohio.  They reached out to create visuals that would capture their unique atmosphere and celebrate their impressive collection of bourbon. This project was the perfect opportunity to blend my expertise in commercial photography with some exciting AI-generated creativity.

Getting the light just right to capture the beauty of each unique bottle.

 

First, I photographed their beautiful selection of bourbon bottles, focusing on capturing each bottle’s details and personality with precision. Then, I turned to Midjourney to create custom backgrounds that evoked the ambiance we wanted—warm, inviting, with a touch of sophistication. After generating several background options, I blended these with the bottle shots, bringing together the best of both worlds.

It looks great. Just needs a few more elements to tell the story.
I love all the facets in this one. It needed some atmosphere to bring it together.

 

 

The result? Stunning images that feel atmospheric and perfectly capture the essence of the bar. This project was a fun and rewarding way to use AI as an enhancement tool, creating visuals that are true to the brand’s vision while adding a unique, modern twist. For clients looking to tell their story in a memorable way, AI offers a creative edge that, when thoughtfully applied, can make all the difference.

 

I created 2 separate prompts in Midjourney to achieve this look. one for the glass and one for the bar. I think it matches seamlessly
This one is a combination of an AI generated ashtray and cigar with the smoke being Photoshop brushes all blended together.
