This afternoon Halle Berry filed a criminal complaint against the photographers that took pictures of her four month old daughter, Nahla Aubry. The photos which have circulated the blogosphere the last few days, show Halle and her mother at a table. Halle is standing, holding her daughter to her chest; you can’t see Nahla’s face.

The pictures were tagged as ‘Halle Berry out and about in Los Angeles,’ but she claims the photographers snuck on the grounds of her home and took them from somewhere in the backyard.

Her attorney, Evan Spiegel said there are witnesses who saw the photographers in the middle of a “very blatant and invasive trespass.”

The noise isn’t nearly as loud as when Tom Cruise tucked Suri away from the public, but Halle Berry does have a curious public wondering what her bundle of joy looks like. That won’t happen anytime soon. She has no plans to to sell pictures either.

In the complaint, Halle explains..

“I have long since come to terms with the fact that choosing a career as an actress has made me a public figure, but my baby has made no such choice, and unless and until she does, I will do everything I can ... to keep her out of the public eye.”

Umm… until Nahla decides? So that’s what 5.. 6 years at best.

Halle is pursuing charges against the photographers and looking to have the pictures taken off the web. This is as good a time as any to redirect those that didn’t see it to - “Halle Berry Hits the Mall With Her 19-Year-Old Son!”

It’s okay - she’s on a public street 😉
