Camera's do pick up infrared. Look at the infrared LED on a remote control (while pressing a button) through your phone camera.

Incidentally, "night vision" security cameras exploit this by clustering infared LED's around the lens.

So, you could have some kind of head band that shines LED light down over your face I guess!

Or you could spray your face with this - https://www.phantomplate.com/

That would take care of flash photography at least.
