For a section of my game, instead of having a perspective projection, i would like to display an isometric view of an object.

So i don't want things to appear smaller if in a distance, etc.

Basically a proper isometric image.

Is there any way to do this in XNA?

You can assign any arbitrary matrix to the pipeline's projection matrix in XNA, even one that doesn't perform a useful projection (you probably won't see useful results doing that, but you can).

So you can construct an orthographic projection matrix yourself or use one of XNA's helper methods and use that. You'll also have to adjust the view matrix to position the camera from the angle you want, of course.

Matrix.CreateOrthographic should do the trick.
