I have been on a couple cruises over the last couple of years (one to Alaska and one to the Caribbean) and I would love the opportunity to be a photographer for a cruise ship talk about an experience.
However, I know for a fact that the photographer was allowed off at ports to take pictures of people, couples, whatever on the beach. Mostly, what I remember was before every dinner, and especially the formal ones they would have an elaborate posed set up in one of the grand atrium's with a piano or on the spiral stairs to get a a formal type shot. Then the next day you get to elbow your way through people to look and have the chance to purchase them.
One of the pictures my parents presently have sitting on their mantel is from Alaska the photog snapped a picture on the bow of the ship with a glacier in the background.
But all that being said I think it would be definitely a fun experience. Hope the day to day events as I remember it helps. I can't really say anything about the business end of it.
