False Advertising!

Amstel hired Spanish photographer Javier Tles for a very unusual type of advertising campaign for Heineken beer. Rather than set up a staged photoshoot, as is par for the course, Tles covertly captured photos of real people enjoying drinks with their actual friends, approaching the ad campaign more like a documentary photography project than a commercial project. It is a very different type of advertising campaign, especially in the era of AI-generated ads.
