A modest correction - I do not have a slight phobia about pictures.
I have an strong unwillingness to have my picture taken - largely because eventually I'll have to look at the picture, and be forced to face the way I look.
"As a beauty, I am not a star, there are others more handsome, by far. But my face - I don't mind it - because I'm behind it. It's the people in front that I jar!"
Seeing photographs of myself is always jarring (I think O. Nash is responsible for the limerick, but I could be mistaken)
