Gorgeous picture Mike!

Have you ever tried lowering the light? I have done that and it eliminates that dreadful snout shadow. It works well on only relatively young subjects. If you check out Sargent and Zorn's work. you will notice they used it extensively. It forms a light shadow on the top of the cheek and makes mouths look more voluptuos. It has to be done subtly or you get the ghoul effect.
