You might try and get a restraining order (TRO) which
prohibits your neighbor from photographing you and your
family while you are on your own property. This will give
you "teeth" you can use to bring further action in the event
they violate any terms of the order.
You could also bring a civil action for harrassment against
your neighbor but that will cost you attorney's fees. Try
filing for a TRO first. You can do that yourself without an
attorney.
You might also see if your community has a "community
justice center." If there is such a community org. in your
area, they would likely be willing to mediate the dispute
(if your neighbor agrees to mediation) without the need for
judicial intervention.
The ticket your husband got sounds like a "he said--she
said" situation which shouldn't result in a court upholding
the ticket without some other evidence.
You do need to get this matter settled some way. This is
the kind of petty dispute that can easly escalate into a
serious criminal matter involving actual violence
