I guess it is one of those style preferences where you like it or you don't. When it comes to photographing people I tend to be more of the "don't" camp. It gives impossibly long dimensions to the face front to back, distorts features and to me at least, doesn't do anything to flatter the subject. A very attractive model, who I feel would be even more so from a more natural perspective.

But, like everything in art, it is all in the eye of the beholder.
