Introduction: Robert Bean grew up in Los Angeles, and fell in love with photography at an early age. In 1991, he relocated to New York City to broaden his experience and went to work for Annie Leibovitz as a photographer's assistant. After several years working for her and later for several other internationally recognized photographers, Robert began taking on his own jobs and continues to satisfy clients through creative problem-solving.
His clients have included Sotheby's, Columbia University, McCann- Erickson SF, NBC Entertainment, Pohly, and Partners Inc. among others. When not at work, Robert pursues personal projects and explores his passions for hiking, scuba diving, travel and all the little things that make him smile. Robert recently relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area with his family to introduce his son to skiing, kite flying and life in a car.
