A while back I had Grammy Award Winner, Sir Mix-A-lot on chasejarvisLIVE. The guy is smart – dropped some pretty serious knowledge on the show [here’s the re-watch if you missed it].
At the end of the show, I shot the cover for his upcoming album, live, online. Here are the results.
The lead one that shows his face is my fav, but there’s plenty of debate, because the other shot is tough and mysterious. I’ll resist the temptation to make any real case for one or the other, and I’ll let this is a straight up survey – which photo do you like better A (top) or B (bottom)? (please answer in the post, not via other social channels so we don’t have to chase your feedback – thx!)
Here is photo A:
Here is photo B:
Thanks for your input.

B. He looks sinister and devious, like he’s looking right through you.
A for me – I like to see the face – tells me more about the person, but actually I don’t like the hands – the welcoming feel puts me off in the context
B is the better shot .
Definitely A because I like to see his face and I don’t like the fur on her back, it’s too light and distracting.
I very much prefer photo A as there is more light on the main subject’s face, the hands are open and welcoming, and the model in the background is a little darker and therefore less of a distraction.
