How attractive am I? this question is one of the most confusing/surreal ones, and I think this generalizes to a lot of other people. I have evidence I am attractive. I make good money off it and people tell me I'm very hot. This should be the end of it, right? No.

A pretty easy way to find out the aggregate opinion of the attractiveness of your photos: Set up a new Tinder profile with nothing but pics. Swipe for a while. See how hot the suggested matches are after the batch of hot ppl they always put at the start.

one problem is I don't know what pics of myself are actually representative of me. I have hot pics where I'm wearing some makeup and making a nice face, and ugly pics where there's lens distortion maybe? and no makeup/bad facial expression. Which ones are accurate?

Level of attractiveness varies wildly in different clothes, makeup, & even moods. To an extent, there's no consistent score (some people have more variation than others though). Are you more interested in how hot you are at your hottest or average or least hot?

even though it isn't optimal, I feel that how you choose to present yourself should be considered part of attractiveness? (sans computer enhanced photos) probably would have to do several tinders + ones with a mix of diff photos to see sorta "accurate" results averaged

Men are evolved to tell the true attractiveness of a woman very quickly and regardless if exogenous circumstances like clothes or lighting. I think you’re putting way too much stock in that. Not once in my life have I been fooled into mis-rating a woman by more than a point.

I think you are starting from an assumption that there is ‘true attractiveness’, when it is always going to be context-dependent. None of those photos are more representative of *you* than the others; they are all *you*.
