The difference between 2 and 1 is really interesting. 2 is much more flattering to the model, IMHO. She has a strong chin and a relatively low forehead. Getting that forehead close to the camera and chin further away really works for her while the reverse exegerates in just the wrong way.

I love this style of closeup. You've inspired me and I'm going to try some myself. Yuri, please, can you furnish tecnical details: lens, speed, aperature, lighting, etc? Thanks.

A wonderful low key photo. Very flattering to the subject, and I really love the B&W treatment. Perfect!

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

I love the softened framing of her face in number 3. Fantastic effect.
