Hi,
i'm not 100% sure, but you need to set
"block-after-capture, TRUE" on gstreamers camerabin element in cheese.

here is part of description from camerabin:


  /**
   * GstCameraBin:block-after-capture:
   *
   * Block viewfinder after capture.
   * If it is TRUE when 'capture-start' is issued, camerabin will prepare to
   * block and freeze the viewfinder after capturing. Setting it to
FALSE will
   * abort the blocking if it hasn't happened yet, or will enable again the
   * viewfinder if it is already blocked. Note that setting this property
   * to TRUE after 'capture-start' will only work for the next capture. This
   * makes possible for applications to set the property to FALSE to abort
   * the current blocking and already set it back to TRUE again to block at
   * the next capture.
   *
   * This is useful if application wants to display the preview image
   * and running the viewfinder at the same time would be just a waste of
   * CPU cycles.

currently i have no time to play with it. So you will need to dicover it
by your self.
