Yesterday, in the store, I spotted a friend that I haven’t seen in 10 years. We recognized each other and of course indulged into a very lively conversation but I still kept an eye on the store and every few minutes reached out to customers to help them. At one moment while talking to my friend, I turn around to look if there’s a customer in need and I notice a coworker taking a picture of me. I got angry instantly but calmed myself down and chose not to take any action regarding it. Can I get in trouble and more importantly can he get in trouble for taking unwarranted pictures of me?
I think as long as they don't take a picture of you in a bathroom, they can get away with it.

What your coworker did is definitely not allowed. Taking pictures of others is only allowed when illegal activities are happening.
