Square Crop That Keeps the Subject
Turn a landscape photo into a square without cutting off the subject. If it cannot be done honestly, say so. PHOTO Subject and where they sit: [LEFT THIRD | CENTER | EDGE] What is behind them: [SIMPLE | BUSY] Must keep: [FACE, HANDS, PRODUCT, HORIZON] Target: 1:1, and a 4:5 if the square is hopeless. OPTIONS, IN ORDER 1) A crop that keeps the subject and still has a corner to breathe. Describe it. 2) A crop plus a small content extension of background only, with the mask limits. 3) A redesigned frame: a solid or blurred field with the original photo inset, for when the subject fills the frame edge to edge. Give the proportions. 4) What I refuse to do: clone a limb, mirror a face, stretch the subject. End with the export pixels for [1080 or the size I name] and a check that text-safe UI later will not cover the face.
