The same rules that apply at jails and prisons apply at correctional boot camps. All incoming mail is opened and inspected by staff, and any photos containing nudity will be confiscated before they ever reach your family member.

The line is the same across virtually every correctional setting: bikinis and lingerie are permitted as long as private areas are covered. Anything that crosses into explicit nudity gets rejected at the mail room, and in some cases repeated attempts to send prohibited material can flag the sender's account.

Staying on the right side of that line means your photos actually get through and your family member gets to keep them. Send something that shows you are thinking of them without giving the mail room a reason to confiscate the envelope.
