If he was not on your property, he can take pictures from the road.

Taking pictures of the outside of your home, and/or you in the yard, as long as he doers not trespass, is perfectly legal. There is no expectation of privacy. If he were to go on your property and photograph secluded areas or take pictures through your windows, that would be different that would be illegal.

Was the investigator on public or private property. As long as the investigator was on public property, it isn't a crime.
