Re: Privacy
Generally, no.
If they are in your home without your permission, they would be guilty of trespassing. And if they are peeping through a window, they might be guilty of something else.
But assuming they have a right to be in your presence, and to look at you, then they can shoot away! Of course, whether they can use the picture without your permission is a different matter.
