The issue:
When you navigate to the Origami People Directory, you see no pictures for some of the users.
However, when you log into the Azure AD, user pictures show up just fine.
The issue with pictures not showing is a common issue in SPO.
Microsoft stores user photos in various locations, depending on the licence that the user has.
If the user has an Exchange Online licence, their picture is stored in Exchange. If they don’t have Exchange Online, the picture is stored in SharePoint.
Check out this resource to see what you can do synch your pictures and start showing them in the Origami directory and other Office365 directories:
