2. Advertising photography consist of artisanal
shots of a selected product to make the
product in question look desirable.
Photography can manipulate a product by
using different camera angles, and having
one original product for photographic
purposes that look better than the rest. An
example of this would be the McDonald’s
burgers - they look great in the pictures, but
what you hold in your hand isn't necessarily
the same.
