hoping to avoid that.

In our state, potential foster to adopt parents tell their SW what situations they are open to. If you are not open to certain situations - disabilities, behavior disroders, ages, genders, races, etc - you are not supposed to be presented those situations. I'm not sure that a photo is going to give you more information than meeting with the child and getting advice on potential matches from your SW would.

How are you planning on avoiding rejection? (Not trying to flame you, just asking for more information.)
