Re: taking pictures of minors using camera phone depends on the circumstances. IT's generally a BAD idea. It is illegal to take pictures of ANYBODY without their consent, unless they're out in public.
Minor's can't consent anyway... so you'd need a parent to authorize the taking of the photo.
Of course if the minor is in any state of undress or in a compromising position, it can be VERY dangerous to engage in this kind of thing.
Also, you shouldn't "publish" the photos (such as on a website) for any purpose. There have been some recent cases on this subject.
