    I don't know why, buy I really don't think cropping at the waist looks weird.
    The other examples though.
    I think it looks weirder to crop off the top of the hair/head that a lot of people do.

    These videos are designed so you can improve your photography. They are not about entertainment, self-promotion of the host, being cool, or hawking some photography brand. I am glad I found this channel.
    If I had any friends I would recommend this channel to them.
    I don't like it that he said "Rules are made to be broken." That statement is a very worn-out cliche and I am tired of hearing it crowed by every photography teacher multiple times. At least he did not say zoom with your feet. That is another one I do not enjoy hearing constantly. LOL

    Very nice video, I’ve been looking for one like this. Question. I notice some you’re shooting below eye level, what’s the rule? For headshots, is it better to shoot portrait or landscape? Do you generally shoot similar to how you want to crop or shoot giving you the options of crop during editing?

      Now I understand why some of the portraits on Instagram are less appealing than others.

      It isn't! Give it a couple of years and hopefully that shit will disappear.

    The image at 3:47, though it is supposed to be a "feminine" pose ended up looking pretty cool.

    I have difficulty knowing how to crop a traditional headshot of a woman with a large bust, and sometimes end up with the widest area at the bottom. It’s especially difficult when clients want the subjects to take up the same space in the frame. How do you suggest handling that?

    Crops that make me cringe is running the subject into the side of the image. If they looking or moving in a direction, i leave a little room instead of always centering them in the frame.

      I was struggling to hear him, like just why? You’re making a video-with one other person-sound is pretty darn important-never mind the virtue-signaling silliness of it all-just added to my total irritation with this vid. Glad to see I want the only one!

    A rule that is "meant to be broken" is nonsense.
