The gate agents of Turkish Airlines have point-and-shoot digital cameras with which they take photos of passenger passports. They did not ask for permission to do that nor provided a reason. Any idea what could be the reason they are doing that?

Most likely they are doing it because the regulations of the country the flight is going to requires them to do so. For example, Timatic (the system most airlines use to confirm passport/visa requirements) states the following for flights to the Netherlands:

You haven't stated which country you were travelling to, but if it was the Netherlands then that is undoubtedly your answer. If it was a different country it's likely that it was to cover a similar regulation for that country, or possibly just because the airline had been fined in the past for carrying passengers who did not have the correct documentation on arrival, so they were keeping a record on departure to be used to prove that the passenger did show the airline the correct documentation on departure.

It is becoming common for passengers to destroy or conceal their passports en route in order to try to claim asylum as an undocumented individual at the destination airport. That might be because they believe their claim will be stronger if they claim to be from a different country to their true host nation, or that while their true identity is established they will have time to begin legal proceedings in the destination country.

The airline involved will bear considerable logistical and potentially punitive expenses for transporting an undocumented individual. If the airline has photographs of the documentation for each at-risk passenger, the problem can be mitigated much sooner and the passenger identified with certainty and returned to the appropriate country.
