I think the major element in an advertisement is that the product should be clearly visible at least when easily possible. So if your model is holding the bottle in the left hand, you should shoot from the right side, or if you want to shoot from the left side, let the model hold the bottle in the right hand

nice candid, funny yet "touching" moment.

If you drink beer, you get fat? Is that good? :)

OK, there's a beer in this shot, but what kind is it? What about this shot makes me want to go out and try this particular brand?

thats nice!

Good black and white photo. Maybe if held in the other hand you could have shown the product more clearly? Really like the fact this is a "regular" person enjoying life. Good job!

I think it would be better if he were drinking with his left had so we could see the bottle.

This okay but we don't see the label here so hard to know what beer. Castle is my guess but for advertising it needs to be more obvious. Anyway it's good tones, good focus.

Great candid, however it needs to draw more attention to the product. Nice lighting and dof but I wouldn't be exactly sure what your trying to sell.
