Open Format Crop

The open format crop is basically any photo where the full subject is not contained within the frame. It can aid in bringing the most attention to the subject matter as it is often the only thing in the frame.

It can also create mystery with the viewer not knowing what lay beyond the frame.

Craig Malozzi by Rick Day

Rick Day has a very recognisable style. Slightly muted tones and soft lit subjects. He’s also known for his fashion photography and edgy work for brands like Rufskin.

Fantasticsmag is an awesome resource for checking out fashion shoots. The photographers, models, stylists and make-up artists who collaborate to make these photos do an amazing job. I hope to one day have work posted on the site.
