First of all, don't dislike your own face value, because ugliness is probably the reason for photographers. As we all know, whether it is a camera or a mobile phone, shooting has a focal length, and the faces of people who shoot at each focal length are different. Generally speaking, a lens with a focal length of 50mm is most suitable for taking portraits, and the photos taken are more natural and realistic. So if you happen to meet someone who can't take pictures, he doesn't know that taking pictures is actually related to the focal length. Coupled with the bad angle, the photos taken by beautiful people will also become ugly.
