About taking portraits, I take busts, whole bodies and heads. Where do I cut it?

Before photography, portrait sculpture was the originator of our portrait photography. In portrait photography, the local description of people is close-up, such as head, eyes, hands, feet and buttocks. With the waist as the dividing line, it is divided into upper body and lower body. The most typical sculptures, Aphrodite of Milos and the plump statue of Venus, are bounded by the waist, exposing the upper body and wrapped in the wonderful lower body, giving people unlimited imagination space. The whole body, naturally the whole person, can be vertical, horizontal or at other angles; However, you must have a posture and a good-looking shape. Tono Stano's Young Man Holding Goose, Thinker, Statue of Liberty and Streamline in 1992 are all ways that we portrait photographers can learn from. The other is uneven or unbalanced unconventional composition, such as cutting off the head and feet to make the body headless, because unconventional is very useful.
