Apparently the poll did not work; but I'll put in my 2 cents anyway.

I always thought that embarkation photos were a total waste. You arrive at the ship a bit harried and hassled, and someone points a camera at you just when you're at your worst. We've never had one that was good enough to buy.

Port of call photos at least make some sense. After you've been on the ship awhile, you're relaxed; and there's at least a chance that the photo will be good.

In effect, digital cameras have nade these photos obsolete. You simply hand your camera to another passenger, and he/she keeps shooting until there's a good picture. Then you do the same for him ot her.

Our favotite cruise line, Regent, has eliminated photographers fotr the reason mentioned in the above paragraph.

Using your criteria, Jenn sure cuts down on my cruise ship picture purchases.
