Flavor Frame
A photography app for food lovers. Smart filters and shot tips make your food pics pop. I use it for Instagram-worthy shots of my pesto pizzas and pastas.

What it is
A camera app that nudges you towards better food photos without taking over the shot. It surfaces composition hints (rule of thirds, top-down vs three-quarter angle, where the light is) at capture time, then runs a light auto-grade pass on the result.
What it deliberately doesn't do
It doesn't pretend to be a magic AI filter. It tells you what to do — move the plate left, lower the camera, tilt the bowl — and lets you take the shot. The filters are subtle, not Instagram-1.0 chemical-orange.
What it shipped well
The angle-detection feature. Hold the phone too vertical for a top-down and it tells you. Hold it almost-flat for a three-quarter and it tells you. After a month I stopped needing it; muscle memory took over. Which is the goal of every good tool.
