    Cool Ships Photographers

    All of them are aggressive but they have quotas to meet and if they do not meet them they are gone.

    Remember we do not have to purchase the photographs. AT least that is what I tell Ruth but her office still has 40+ formal night photographs on the walls and large quantities in the drawers, in the closets, in boxes under the coffee table, in shoeboxes under her desk, In Xerox boxes in the garage, in boxes in the attic, etc., etc., etc.

    And worst of all SHE BUYS THEM WHEN WE CRUISE ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh:headbang2 :headbang2 :headbang2 :headbang2 :headbang2 :headbang2 :headbang2

    I still answer her the only way possible: YES DEAR I WILL GO PAY FOR THEESEluv: luv: luv: luv: :headbang2

    For awhile we them the photographers to be very aggressive. They would block your passage as you tried to get off the ship. They get a little hostile when you would tell politely at dinner that you didn't want your picture taken.

    But I do believe that after several of us wrote comments on our surveys that something was said to some of them.

    On the last couple of cruises they were a lot different.

    I never had a problem at dinner BUT the do block your way trying to leave the ship. One of the worst encounters was at Half Moon. Standing on that ramp was terrible. One of the people in our party had a medical problem. Standing on that ramp was pure H*ll for him.

    I feel sorry for the people who are trying to get to their tour and then you have all that back-up on the gangway. And the tour people are sometimes yelling for everyone to get together.
