The standard Photo Stream only uses WiFi.

Shared Photo Streams can use either cellular data or WiFi. The only way to prevent them from using cellular data is to turn off shared photo streams entirely.

Only if your turn Cellular Data off, as there is no separate setting for this. Shared Photo Stream, unlike Photo Stream, will use available WiFi or 3G.

This is fixed in iOS7. You can now disable cellular for Photos in the enhanced Cellular settings.
