My house is not on a public highway, in which I don’t have an expectation of privacy.

I also can’t expect people to not photograph me nude if I walk down a street that way.

The Fourth Amendment

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized:"

You will notice that expectation of privacy is not mentioned. You may also want to note that the Amendment guarantees your right to be secure in your person even before it mentions your house.
