It is not permissible to photograph women if the pictures are likely to be seen by non- men. Therefore, it is not permissible for you to allow anyone to photograph your wife if you know that the picture is likely to be seen by non-mahram men. If you and your wife take all possible precautions, and then a woman photographs your wife without her knowledge, there is no sin upon you or upon your wife.
