 Hi! Thanks for reporting an issue!

 In fact, WordPress already supports this. The 4th parameter of the
 `add_image_size()` function sets the crop behavior. See
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_image_size/
 add_image_size()] in the function documentation.

 Essentially, you'll want something like `add_image_size( 'custom-size',
 200, 200, true );`, to do a hard crop from the center of the image, or
 `add_image_size( 'custom-size', 200, 200, array( 'left', 'top' ) );` to do
 your hard crop from the top left corner, etc.
