Jack Ambriz

What's your favorite spirit category?

Tequila. Working inside the category with OTACA changed how I see it, the agave, the process, the people behind it.

If you had to give a 10-minute presentation without prep, what's the topic?

Relationships, and what changes when you think about them long-term instead of transactionally. Almost everything good in my business came from that shift.

What’s one thing you’ll never say no to?

Ground-zero work. Building something from nothing is the fun of it all.

What’s something people are usually surprised to learn about you?

Before any of this, I was a welder and manufacturer, designing and fabricating parts for multi-million-dollar cars, including Paganis.

Jack brings a background in photography, cinematography, hospitality, and beverage brand building, so he approaches the work with an understanding of how the content will be used after the shoot.

Role at BrandAmped

Jack works across creative production and content for BrandAmped and the brands we work with. He takes projects from the initial idea through the shoot and final delivery, with a particular focus on photography and cinematography for spirits, food, hospitality, and lifestyle brands.

He also brings a commercial perspective to the work, helping make sure the content supports how the brand needs to show up in the market rather than simply looking good on a feed.

Background

Jack has built his career around creative production for hospitality, beverage, and luxury lifestyle brands. His work spans photography, cinematography, creative direction, color grading, and post-production, with deep experience shooting food, spirits, restaurants, and the dark hospitality environments where beverage brands actually live.

His connection to the beverage business goes beyond being behind the camera. Jack has worked in spirits distribution and representation with OTACA Tequila, supported hospitality placements for Empress Gin, and co-founded Unicorn Hunters Club, a premium cigar subscription and e-commerce business. Those experiences gave him firsthand exposure to the commercial side of building and selling a consumer brand.

That perspective shapes the way Jack approaches creative work today. He understands what it takes to produce a beautiful image, but he also understands why the brand needs the image in the first place. Whether the work is being used for a launch, an account presentation, social content, or an ongoing campaign, he thinks about where it is going and what it needs to accomplish.

At BrandAmped, Jack brings that combination of creative craft and real-world brand experience to the brands we work with, helping turn ideas into content that people actually want to look at and brands can actually use.
