My guess is that the photo is not of the pie in the printed recipe.

Watch the video at the 0:56 moment where she pours a mixture of assorted berries into a crust. It appears that this pie was used for the photo illustrating this recipe. The photo itself is a poor image indicating that this was not a professional executed still shot but almost certainly a frame grab from the video.

That is unsurprising since this recipe was posted at the height of the pandemic and it would have been unlikely for her to have a full still photo and video crew on site for the usual array of staged beauty shots.

Another clue that this is not a still image is the fact that the photo credit neither mentions the photographer nor the food stylist. Only a a generic "Photo by Food52" attribution is provided.
