Is there any cannon photos of how the reds and blues look without their helmets?

No, I think the reasoning being that nothing could really live up to fan expectations and it'd be disappointing for fans who think they look different than the official reveal. Same reason they never revealed Sarge's real name, though Burnie Burns and Matt Hullum claim he does have a real name that they both know and will never reveal.
Yeah, it's nice that it's left to the viewers imagination.
Besides Carolina, we saw the back of Wash’s head once. Other Reds and Blues no
We know what Maine looks like too, people were able to get a decent shot of his face during the AI schooling scene. And of course the other Freelancers
Pretty sure RT has debunked that stating they didn’t model his face or anything so it’d look like a mannequin if you brighten it up
Nope, we have only some of the freelancer’ faces
Luke McCay of the RT comics has drawn them but they are not canon. See Tucker being changed to black after an excellent joke about his name being Lavernius.

Correct me if I am wrong, but Luke was hired to do RT comics with Griffon after the success of the RvB comics.
I've met Luke before but I don't know where. HBO event maybe, maybe early RTX, idk. Funny guy.
Was going to say about Luke McKay as well! Loved his versions back in the day
you could argue they're the closest thing we'll get, because Carolina and the Director colour scheme wise quite closely match Luke McKay's depiction of Tex (green eyes, red hair), so maybe they took inspiration from these, especially with McKay being an RT employee for a long time.
Wait wait wait there where some RvB comics!? Why i didnt know, where i can find them?
the link
well, I did some test pages of RvB comics, but they never went anywhere.
I kinda like the concept of it
Canonical headshots? No, but very generic descriptors have been given throughout the series. And, just going off those, the community has come to a kind of consensus on what the characters look like. There’s not 100% the same across the board, but similar.
I think my favorite renditions of the crew are the ones that remember / acknowledge past injuries. And I’m not talking about Grif and Simmons’ body part swapping. Like, Donut having burn scars on his face from the grenade Tex threw on him.
We can guess what some might look like but we have zero visuals.
No, because they know it would upset fans no matter what they looked like. Same reason most halo fans don’t want to see master chiefs face.
They all look like their voice actors.
I like to think that for some of the gang have the faces of their respective voice actors, manly grif Simons and church, makes the good bye at the end more heartwarming since it’s the faces I know
