I can see your point.
Photographs and reality are two things completely different. That's why we do color sketches.
Most of my works are done from life, I don't like photographs.
If you are going to work from life, you will need to have one refference point always in mind, the tip of the nose, a ear, etc, this helps a lot in case your model moves.
Drawing from general to specifics will help you get a better likeness next time.
