Furthermore, this series has used pictures of the actors in their youth PLENTY of times to represent them at a younger age. The photographs are mainly used for suspects, granted however the resemblance between Dexter's photograph for his high school badge and Michael C. Hall himself is pretty close. It's not unheard of for actual photographs of actors being used in multiple shows and movies, so this isn't being blown out of someone's ass...they showed it in the show, so it's a canonical picture.

In addition, in the case of Walter Kenney, sometimes the DOB for the character is the same as the actor's.
