the food directly straight on. Think of it as
being eye-level with the subject.
2.) 10-20 Degree
The 10-20 degree angle is a bit higher than
photographing the subject at eye-level.
3.) 45 Degree
The 45 degree angle is a go-to angle for almost any dish.
It’s usually the most flattering since it captures the light in
great way, as well as grabs the details of the food no
matter if you’re photographing a bow of soup or a stack of
cookies.
4.) 90 Degree
The 90 degree, or overhead, angle is when you hold
your camera directly above the food and shoot down
on it.
