Food Photography Styles

It’s nice to have a style, but you can change your angles of food photography depending on the recipe.

There’s no one style that’s best when photographing food. You might want to have a pattern for Instagram, but it’s actually recommended since not all food will look good in the same setting.

Photo Angles

Abstract Photo

Close-up photo of a dish with texture really visible. Simply to none background.

French Apple Pie Tart

Action Shot

To help people imagine what’s it like to sample all of it. The pouring or dipping moment caught on camera.
