profile shots
Lateral face photographs
Profile shots are photographs or images showing a subject from the side, capturing the outline of facial features from forehead to chin.
The term appears most often in photography, film, and law enforcement contexts: The casting director asked for headshots and profile shots.
Mugshots traditionally include both a frontal view and a profile shot.
