 A (literally) last-minute entry. Hopefully people see the difference here! I had the camera in a box with flaps, so I could open one side, hit the flash, open the other side, hit the flash. Done!

Not a whole lot of editing. Mostly USM and adding the shadow. Clone out blemishes, dodge and burn the hair a for highlights, and just a little liquify to fix some edges.

I tried this, but couldn't get my face to contort well enough - your model has pretty impressive facial muscle control! Good photo, too.

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Now that is either fantastic muscle control or something is/akin to Bells Palsy. If the later, awesome that you are brave, remain in good spirits and seeing the positive- it goes a long way. If it is supreme muscle control - Wow! The lighting and details are great in this portrait. There are great catch lights in the eyes that shows a cheerful sparkle. You have two asymmetrical subjects in the photo: the first is the 'emotions' on the face and the second is the thumbs up & thumbs down. This has very clearly met the challenge and is well done - should be in the top ten.
