Hi duran,
Happy New Year 2015! ☺
Basically, the English sentence means (more or less):
He took my picture ("I let him take my picture").

This is a causative pattern:
get somebody to do something.
have somebody do something.
I got my mother to help my homework.
I had my mother help my homework.
I let my mother help my homework.
The sentence above means "I wanted him to take my picture and he did."
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
