You have seen the second photo but during this series I took a lot of photos from a few different angles trying to get the look I was going for. The only issue was I was not quite sure what I was going for. I just knew it when I got it.
I originally wanted her full body in frame, but decided cropping in to highlight specific features was better. I had her arms by her side, but she stretched at one point while I was adjusting the light, and I really liked how when her arms were up her rib cage was highlighted, her breasts, and abdomen as well.
I wanted to crop for Instagram. I hate, looking back, how my work was affected by social media standards. Cropping, censorship, trendy themes. Staying true to your vision means something as an artist... so stick to it.
