Broad face distortions

Recently, I took several shots of outdoors portraits and the subjects were probably about 10-15 ft away (full length portrait) and I used a 50mm FLE Summilux. 

I know the subjects well because one of them is me.

 

What I noticed is that my face was exaggerated along the horizontal axis and it looked a lot broader than normal. It happened to the other subject as well. I've also seen this on my 75mm Summicron FLE.

 

I thought the longer the lens, the less rectilinear distortions. Was my distance too far away? 

 

Any thoughts on this?
