I actually shot most of these full+some and cropped down. Sometimes I just like a closer shot. But yes, I too hate the chopped off limbs as well, but I don't cut them off at joints anymore at least so it doesn't look like they've been "chopped" off.

Oh, you should have the seen the ones I DIDN'T post! Then again, I'm still learning how to use this Sekonic L-358. And I haven't "calibrated" it because I like how my shots turn out. It's a learning curve.

Yes, COUCH and Eric. You didn't see the couch in the shots? I didn't want you guys to take one look and say "oh no, it's another shot of Danielle" Haha.

Thanks everyone for your responses. Now, time to learn s'more!
