I think that Mike is partially right. One can indeed do close portraits with TLR and a close-up attachments, but these are a bit special ones - they are taken from quite close and while they can be very nice and interesting (intimate could be the right word) and the above shot is a very nice example - they do introduce distortions that are not always wished, so to say.
The close up attachment effectively decreases the (for close portraits already rather short) focal length of the lens.
