composition: fill the frame

Another beautiful way of composing a picture is to completely fill the frame. Fill it with your fabulous subject. Fill it with your landscape. Fill it with whatever you’re shooting. I’ll include some examples below.
Fill the frame with that little face…completely. At times I will even cut off a slight portion of the head (or chest) whatever feels right. Fill your viewfinder with that beautiful face and then…click. Try it. Look. See if you like it. I love it. More emotion. More sweetness. Just more.
