Unphotogenic 

No, it doesn't necessarily mean you're ugly.

Definition:

1.~ A person who is unphotogenic is one that may not appear in photos as they really are in "real life". For example, your hair could appear much darker, or one eye bigger than the other, or your nose may look crooked, but in real life this isn't noticeable.

2.~ A stupid person's synonym for ugly. But you have to be stupid - like REALLY stupid - to think they are actually the same thing.

>>Ben: Aww no Jackie, you're just unphotogenic. Your eyes are gorgeous and the same size when I look at them.

>>Jackie: thanks Ben, you're a sweetie.

Unphotogenicophilia 

A extremely rare genetic disorder caused by damage to the ZBTB7AI4E gene. This condition usually presents itself within the first few years of the person's life. It is extremely rare only 1 in 100,000,000 people present with symptoms. While there are no physically detrimental effects caused by this disorder, it does cause the person afflicted to look absolutely horrendous when captured in a photograph. The unphotogenicophiliac's lobby is trying to get cameras banned in all public buildings and parks. This measure was introduced into congress as a way to end the tyranny of the camera. People afflicted find it hard to find solidarity seeing as it is a very personal disorder and many do not want to disclose the fact that they are afflicted.
