    The options are more restricted in Mavericks:

    • To change a profile picture in Contacts double-click the "edit" button on the Card.
    • Now you should be able to use either the Faces or the Photo Stream from your iPhoto Library.

    Only, when I am testing, these options always are showing empty since Mavericks. Is that what you are seeing too?  As a work-around, you can still drag and drop directly from the open iPhoto window directly to the contacts photo well on the card.
