I actually always made the name part big if I could - not to remember it but for the visual sort of like a face.
Note: I've also seen that for minority / female hiring, a face can really jump your resume up as it makes clear you may help add some diversity to a team.

But you handed them in, in person, and had an in person interview.
If anything, a picture is a loss of historically available visual data on a hire.

I have done that exactly once, at a college recruiting event in 2002, and the person who took it and gave me the pre-screen interview never saw me again until after I was hired.
