Taking photos of crew

Hi, airsmiles! As a crew member, I personally would not want customers on board to photograph me... You ask if most crew would mind having their photo taken - I think they would, especially if not asked first. Funny that only a couple of weeks ago I noticed a man pointing his camera in my direction while I was standing in the cabin during boarding at Heathrow. I said nothing at first, but as he did it again I approached him and asked along the lines "Excuse me Sir, but I noticed you pointing your camera in my direction a couple of times...are you taking pictures of the cabin or of myself?" . Both him and his friend started giggling and then he showed me his camera, and there was a photo of me! I politely asked him to delete the picture, he apologized and that was the end of it - no need to cause a scene or big drama.
