Very nice as always. You do the lens justice.

May I ask why you cut off the top of model's heads? Not to be critical but you seem to always frame it in that way. Just wondering why you make that choice.

I also wonder why because I have seen many fashion photos where photographers make this choice of framing which I do not appreciate, usually.

Nice photos anyway.

I know one logical explanation, with full head customer property, less good pictures like with head cut. Property of photographer and allow to publish them elsewhere.

The head chop seems to be commonplace. I notice it a lot in movies, too. I'm not a fan of it in any way, but I think that it's used to draw more attention to the faces. With fashion photos, intended to sell products via sex, the face is a stronger seller than hair because people indicate their sexual intentions facially.

There is something I do when I'm shooting. Most of the times I do that for no reason but when I frame the full head I feel we lose some impact.
