There are certain Anabaptist groups that eschew photography for different reasons (the Amish being the more extreme end of this, whereas some Mennonites are OK with a modicum of technology). See https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/photography-blog/2014/sep/30/mennonites-bolivia-jordi-ruiz-cirera-photographs and https://amishamerica.com/what-do-amish-think-about-photography/
