picador

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'bullfighter' is the definition.
('picador' can be a synonym of 'bullfighter')

'ring right after photo taken by adult daughter' is the wordplay.
'ring' becomes 'o'.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'photo' becomes 'pic' (I've seen this before).
'taken by adult daughter' becomes 'ad' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'o'+'r'='or'
'pic'+'ad'='picad'
'or' after 'picad' is 'PICADOR'.

'in' is the link.
