PRIVACY & CONFIDENTIALITY
Discretion is not an add-on. It is the foundation.
When you invite a photographer into your home, onto a yacht, or along on a family vacation, you are sharing more than an itinerary. You are sharing your children, your close friends, and the unguarded hours of your life. Every stage of my work—from the first inquiry to how your archive is stored—is built to protect that trust.
Anonymous Initial Inquiries
You do not need to share family names, exact property addresses, or confidential travel manifests to begin a conversation. An assistant, family office representative, or travel advisor is welcome to inquire with only approximate dates, general region, and the scope of the occasion.
Pre-Commission NDAs & Publication Boundaries
- Default Private: Every private family commission is confidential by default. Your photographs are never used for social media, press, vendor marketing, or public portfolios without your express written permission.
- No Social Media Accounts: The Private Photographer maintains zero social media accounts. There is no feed to feed.
- Non-Disclosure Agreements: I regularly sign custom NDAs prepared by family offices, legal counsel, or estate managers prior to receiving an itinerary or meeting the family.
How Public Examples on This Website Are Handled
The three journey stories shown on this website (Nantucket, Zermatt, and Hawaii) are shared only with the express permission of those clients. In the Zermatt and Hawaii book previews, spreads featuring family members have been omitted entirely or digitally altered so you can see how a book is paced and designed without intruding on the family’s privacy.
Delivery, Storage & Offline Archive Options
- Private Password-Protected Gallery: For families who want convenient online book review and private downloading.
- Private Cloud Transfer: Direct upload to a family office’s or assistant’s designated encrypted cloud folder.
- Offline / Air-Gapped Hard Drive Delivery: For families requiring zero cloud exposure, editing and book layout can be handled offline and delivered exclusively on encrypted physical drives, with studio working copies purged upon final book delivery if requested.
