So much work to increase even one of the creatures levels up enough to where they don't run. Not to mention even when I read the tutorial on taking pictures and I get them in frame like it says, I'll still get an F rating. Way too difficult since you can't be spotted at all, otherwise the rating will go down and you won't get any xp towards the creatures relationship so you can actually do stuff with them without losing anything.

Being spotted (outside of the creature changing animation) has no effect on the score.
Scoring has changed considerably for the next patch. It will be a lot easier to get higher and more consistent scores with photos. This includes the framing.
You need only a few A rated photos to get familiarity high enough to interact with. It isn't what I would consider grindy at all. In fact we intentionally made it easy to get the girls friendly.
