Very Interesting . I’m guessing all photos are shot as JPEG considering the quick turn around. Again, Thanks for the behind the scenes look. Great Job.
As someone looking to work as a photographer in a ship, I can say this is the best video on this topic so far on TH-cam good work, we need more on this too and experiences. Thanks Chilton
That’s great to hear, I have more videos planned. Discussions of the quality of life, and culture, as well as how I got hired - all in a similar format. I did record some port adventures as well so if you want to see how my attitude changes over time you can Check those out.
Duuude, what an awesome video! The amount of effort and details you put into it was incredible. I was looking for more information about the work but after watching your video I think I'm satisfied. I'm Brazilian and next year or so I intend to apply for the position. Subscribed to your channel. Best of luck!
Throughout my cruising experience, I've never failed to appreciate the extremely hard-working crew, in any role, who worked long hours, away from their family and friends back home, months at a time, just to make a living, and to support family members back home. Younger folks from G7 countries likely were working on cruise ships for the travel experience, short-term (a couple of years maybe) before ditching this life on the seas lifestyle, which I do not envy. Thank you Chilton, for your behind-the-scenes perspective as one of the ship's photographer.
Great vid! Really specific with everything! Photo stations (studio) were my favorite part of the job c: everyday was so different and guests were really good most of times 😄 it's really good to improve your model direction for another type of photography as well ! And thanks, I got melancholic at the end 😂 ❤
First of all, what a great video, wow. Do you think someone who’s 40 could work as a cruise photographer? I hike at least one mountain a week lol so I guess I’d have the energy, I’’m just worried if everyone else would be in their early 20s and weirded out by my ancient self.
it sound more of a paparazzi work combined with sales than photography! what I am learning here is that, photographers work extra hours generally, do you get paid for that? Also, how are bonus like in this case per week? do you get paid weekly or monthly and if you do not mind, how much?
Starting salarie is $1000 USD/ per month, when I was promoted that was increased a bit more than $100/month. If we reach quota we are given a percentage of that earning, typically only $100 give or take per cruse. You also have personal commission to individual sales but that is very low. Sell a $2000 camera and you get a $20 commission. The gangway work is a bit like paparazzi but we can only take pictures of people who agree and “pose” for it, not just anyone walking by, because we need to assign the pic to a room number to sell it.
I fail to see how that pertains to the subject matter this channel covers, being travel and self improvement. However I could include it in my upcoming video on Crew culture; as relationships are Inevitable in this Environment - if you’re curious about it.
@ChiltonVlogz Yes, that would be interesting. There's so much gaiety on these ships. Guys looking to not only make out with other guys, but make their way into Canada.🇨🇦 🏳️🌈
You just made me relive my
Ncl days I missed my team. Thanks

I second this!! So little videos that properly show what its like working as a cruise photographer. Brilliant video🤝
great video. i remember my time on NCL Epic over 10 years ago. setup in st nazaire, maiden voyage and all... and loads of bananas ;)

Back then only images we went back to sell were teppanyaki images everything else went on the wall or kiosk
And points for the personification 😂 great acting as Bob hahahaha
I hope the CEO of NCL sees this. They should hire you as a cruise director.

@@ChiltonVlogz I see its quit tough not that easy, I thought its1500
You are clever. No wonder you are so successful. Damn cute too
Plus I see Taylor I miss that coconut
And its like you work with Francis Amores how his videos are a bit shallow not deep like yours and sometimes he does not use English
