Not fully, especially considering that people need to walk around to
get from A to B and making the hallways no-photo seems like
unenforceable overkill.
Yet, it would be trivial to designate a hack room as no-photo zone.
Preferably one of the quiet hack rooms as that seems to combine well.

Colour-coded lanyards and badges are relatively low-hanging fruit.
There should be an understanding that they can not guard against being
photographed in all possible circumstances, though.
Another option would be a different-coloured conference shirt, but
that will introduce logistics issues and along with a host of other
issues...
Fwiw, there seem to be lanyards in various neon colours on the web.

PS: Asking people who do not want to be photographed to wear bright
colours is somewhat counter-intuitive...
