          If you use "in the photos" rather than "on the photos", then your first two examples are acceptable. I'd typically stick with the simpler




          These items don't look the same as in the photos.




          I can't explain why "as" can't be used on its own (like in the 3rd example) to make the comparison here, but it can't. There are a few cases where "as" is used on its own, like "do as I say", but when using it to make comparisons we almost always use it with an adjective, like "as fast as", "as big as", or "the same as".

          As for the third sentence, it's not grammatical. You don't say "look as" to talk about the similarity of two things or people. Instead, you say "look like" as follows:
