Permanently Disable ptpcamerad

I know ptpcamera is an agent of sorts for image capture, that automatically runs when it detects a device that is capable of transferring pictures.

Is there a way to disable this feature permanently?

Any help would be appreciated because this is very frustrating OS behavior.

Thanks in advance!
