I think there are also differences in the camera setup that makes his face seem slimmer or wider respectively.

I am no photographer but I've played around with focal length, zoom and distance before.

Yeah it all ultimately depends on the ratio of the distances to different parts of the subject.

Take a headshot from a foot away, and his ears might be 1.5x that distance away. Take it from ten feet away, and now his ears are 1.05x the distance. That makes their size similarly shaped too. Sometimes called compression, as in compressing the foreground and background together.

Well, he's not smiling in the more recent picture either. He has kind of a sad expression.

I'd say in the first picture he has a fake smile. I like the second one better.
