Dear friends,

1. She is very photogenic.
2. She photographs very well.
3. She has a photogenic face.

- Do these sentences have the same meaning and ok to say?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Namsteven

When you say that someone is photogenic, it is usually understood to be a reference to someone's face. Therefore, sentence 3 seems redundant, and is much less likely to be used than sentences 1 and 2.
