Will columella show/drop? I can't see my columella from the side!!! (photos)

Hard to assess the size of your nose without seeing it on your face. Outside of that there is nothing about your nose that looks particularly difficult.  The expectations of how small or  how much hump can/should be removed is always worth discussing.
