Can I refuse to have my photo taken for my company's website?

Dear Sir/Madam,

My employer is preparing a "meet the team" section on the company's website. They want to take everyone's photo to add it to the website publicly.

Am I within my rights to refuse to have my photo taken with the purpose of it being displayed on the company website?

How can I formulate my refusal?

Thanks!

Dear Questioner,

If it is for the work official purpose only, you can't refuse.
