FOR FAMILY OFFICES, CHIEFS OF STAFF, ASSISTANTS & HOUSEHOLD TEAMS
A trusted presence for the family. A seamless partner for their team.
When a principal asks for a photographer—whether for a multi-generational journey, a milestone birthday at a private estate, or an annual family weekend—the responsibility for vetting, discretion, and logistics falls on you. For more than three decades, I have worked alongside chiefs of staff, personal assistants, estate managers, and nannies to make private photography effortless, predictable, and completely confidential.
Why Family Offices & Assistants Introduce Robert Evans
- Proven Vetting at the Highest Level: Over a 35-year career (Sony Artisan of Imagery since 2014), I have photographed the weddings of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, and other public figures where composure, security coordination, and strict confidentiality were mandatory.
- Sixteen Years with One Principal Family: What began with photographing one couple’s wedding grew into a sixteen-year relationship documenting their vacations, holiday traditions, family cabin weeks, and children’s milestones. Their household team and children already know me—and that familiarity removes every trace of stiffness.
- Zero Social Media Footprint: The Private Photographer has no Instagram, Facebook, or public social accounts. Nothing is ever posted.
- Museum-Quality Books Handled End-to-End: Principals rarely have time to sort through thousands of digital files. Within roughly two weeks of a journey or event, I personally curate and design a 10 × 13-inch US-printed book. You and the family review a finished narrative first.
Working Alongside Household Staff, Nannies & Security
- Around the Children’s Rhythm: I coordinate directly with nannies and governesses so portrait moments and activity coverage fit naturally around nap times, meals, and energy levels.
- Knowing When to Step Away: Before we begin, we establish simple, unspoken signals for when a moment is private. I know when to step forward and when to disappear.
- Single-Point Liaison: If the principal prefers all scheduling, travel logistics, and book-design approvals to flow through an executive assistant or chief of staff, I adapt completely to your communication workflow.
- Short-Notice Readiness: For established families, I have traveled on as little as 24 hours’ notice when schedules permit.
Commercial Clarity & NDA Protocol
- Anonymous Availability Check: Reach out with approximate dates, general region, and number of days. Family names are never required for an initial check.
- Pre-Brief NDAs: Happy to execute your family office’s standard NDA prior to receiving any identifying details.
- Simple Day-Rate Structure: Quoted upfront as a daily fee (typically a 2- to 3-day minimum for domestic trips or 4- to 5-day minimum for international travel) plus travel expenses, with the custom 10 × 13-inch book included in every travel commission.
