Celebrity right to privacy? defamation? LAW QUESTION!?

[ElizaPlume]

I'm writing a short story about a celebrity that has photos/videos (harmful to her image) taken of her inside her home from the outside of her condo (taken from outside through the window) and the photographer distributed them via...

1. social media (facebook, twitter, tumblr, blog, etc)
2. youtube channel
3. sold to entertainment outlets

in this cases what can the celebrity do for the most damage to the person who took those photos? and what kind of case would she have against the photographer? what if the post/uploads were intended to harm her reputation?

I've tried to do research on this but I'm no law student and I couldn't find specific enough cases to reference so I'm essentially clueless. Please be as specific as possible and link references and if possible cases similar to this scenario. Thanks!
