Yes. Unless the pictures were kept from your lawyer and/or you and not disclosed until it was too late for you to take adequate steps to respond to the damaging pictures.

Re: slip and fall

First you should have discussed this with your attorney.

The short answer is no permission is required to take pictures of you. Your attorney should have been provided with copies of all pictures and video which they intend to introduce.

Good luck.
