Some photo missions require you to hang around and take photo's of ships as they enter a harbour. You will be required to take several pictures of different targets in the area if one is not specified in the mission brief. If you are to close to the harbour itself, ships can "un-spawn" and vanish infront of you.
If a target is specified such as a carrier, these usually have defensive positions and ships covering them, and an anti-submarine net in place. You will need to get as close as possible to the target, without hitting the A-S net and alerting the defense force to take a picture. Some targets have a minimum range before they can be sighted by your crew. The crew need to spot the target to make it light up with the target marker, unless you are able to see it yourself easily.
To get the picture you need to line up the scope with the target, be in range, and then press the L key (default key/ stock game) to lock on to the target. Then the photo button will light up, and you can take a picture.
