Need a lot of pictures with people's faces

Question

data mining

Hello.

To train a face recognition program, you need a lot of "training" material, namely, photographs of people in front.
Requirements:
- a photograph of at least 400x300
- the photo shows one person in the front, the face is large enough
- it would be nice to have additional data on the person (country, profession, age, ...)
- hundreds of thousands of photographs are needed

Already taken from a couple of sites on acquaintance. The photos weren't great quality.
From ideas:
- google image search with a face filter. (no additional information, it will be a little difficult to collect)
- imdb.com - photos of all the actors, directors - (not bad, but more is needed)
- vk.com by sorting through profiles (a lot of slag and low-quality photos within the framework of the photo requirements)
- some other dating sites ...

Are there any ideas from Habr users where you can take a cloud of photos of people face without "straining" too much) ??

PS Please do not discuss the program for face recognition, but only ways, places where you can take a lot of high-quality pictures.
