Photos:
A photo may be shared only with a serious potential suitor, not publicly. A Mahram should review first. The girl may appear without hijab and with light makeup so the man can see her properly.

Nikah as Mahr:
A simple Nikah in a masjid without music, photography, or free-mixing is perfectly valid and highly blessed. Marriage should be dignified, not extravagant.
