Artisan Coffee Product Shot

Moody food photography · Works well with Generic, Midjourney, FLUX

Full prompt

A cream ceramic cup of black coffee with a thin ribbon of steam rising, sitting on dark walnut planks with roasted beans scattered around its base. Shot slightly above table height at roughly a 50mm equivalent with shallow depth of field so the far beans dissolve into shadow. A single warm key from the upper left rakes across the wood grain, leaving most of the frame in deep falloff. Rich chocolate and cream palette, moody food photography, intimate and quiet.
