Yes the planned negative space helps with the uneasiness the viewer feels. So a great composition with a model that can deliver on the photographer's dream. Well done.
July 23, 2025 1:25pm Your highly effective composition and use of negative space for your handsome young subject makes this image shine. It is those features of your portrait that initially grabbed my attention for a closer look. I also love your tight cropping of your model -- including him from the very top to the very bottom of the pictures space. Well done by all involved.
