New Yorker Sara Bostwick is suing a high-society wedding photographer who posted pictures of her in her underwear on its website.

The New York Post reported that the photos caused Bostwick to "suffer severe emotional injuries, including post-traumatic stress disorder."

Bostwick's September 2008 wedding was photographed by Christian Oth Studio photographer Carolyn Monastra who Bostwick says was told not to not take pictures while the bride was putting on her wedding gown.

"Monastra took photographs of plaintiff's person in her underwear and in various stages of undress anyway," says the suit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court.

Two months after the wedding, Bostwick's husband found the pictures on the Christian Oth Studio website.

The suit says the studio agreed to take down the pictures, only to leave them where those with an access code could still see them.
