Welcome to Fifty Fifty Gin Bar at 13th and Walnut, Cincinnati, OH!
To get the dramatic, vibrant look that has come to be a signature of my shooting style I complemented the bar lighting with an Aputure light storm 60x and 4 Nanlite LED 4 ft LED tubes.
Shot on the Nikon Z7, Z5 and Nikkor lenses.
We worked quickly on a Wednesday night while a spoken word event was being held in the main space outside the sliding doors and had a great night of culture drinks, bites and photography.
I'm happy with this work and had a great time shooting. Shout out to the bar owner Julia and her amazing crew that made this night really special!
