Solution
The correct option is A of NOTE: We need a preposition to explain possession. As the sentence explains the photograph's possession or ownership by someone.
Option B - 'To' is used to explain a reason. Thus option B is incorrect.
Option C - 'In' is used to explain inside. A photograph can't be inside someone. Thus option C is incorrect.
Option D - 'On' is used to explain 'above/over' something. A photograph can't be taken above 'me'. Thus option D is incorrect.
Option A - 'Of' is used to explain possession. When we ask 'Whose photograph?', there can be two possible answers - 'Of me/ Mine'. Thus option A is the correct answer.
'If I give you the camera, can you take a photograph of me?'
