Very uncomfortable

Separated from cheating, abusive ex husband. Divorce hasn’t started yet, I will have to initiate as even though he left for the married OW, there hasn’t been a push as yet.
We communicate re. children and I try to be as amicable as possible at changeover times but contact is limited due to extensive emotional abuse which I am thankfully recovering from and my children and I are happy and safe in our home.
Last night at a school event, husband was to
drop off (parents weren’t to attend) and I was to pick up DC as he only does after school visits, no overnights mid week due to work.
When I arrived to pick up, he was there too. He spoke with DC for a moment, then we got
to leave, separately. As we were walking out, he turns and says let me take a photo of you and the children. I politely said no and suggested just the children, he completely ignored it and took a couple of pictures.
I just feel really uncomfortable knowing he has pictures of me on his phone, I know this may sound silly but he really wore me down at the end of our marriage, like really and it just felt like a simple boundary that I wanted to uphold and I couldn’t.

Youre not being silly, you have a right to feel hurt he did this after everything you’ve been through

maybe the photos he took just have your DC in? Would you feel comfortable asking him to send you the picture so you have a copy?

I know communication must be very tough but if it is a way of you gaining more info on who he actually took a photo of it may help you?
