• Welcome to Private Idaho’s blog. This is a place where the world of Private Idaho takes shape and you will be able to share in our vision. The name ‘Private Idaho’ was inspired by Gus Van Sant’s risk-taking cult movie ‘My Own Private Idaho.’  Choosing this name was a way of reminding myself and my team that we can take risks whilst always providing a sanctuary for our clients, partners and team as we grow and develop everyone’s careers and the business. Working in entertainment is one of the most challenging and rewarding opportunities. Every move we make at Private Idaho has purpose and strategy but also a lot of heart and joy. Nothing we do or start is ever started without thought and intention. This blog will allow us to open up a world of deeper thought, conversation and open information. This means there will be lots of posts about what we have learned over the years in business, trends we are reviewing or using or not, some behind the scenes, our influences in entertainment and in life that will touch on travel, art, lifestyle, running a family and business, balance, setting goals, people management, laughter and tips. You will hear from founder Jen Fontaine and also members of the amazing team who are brilliant people and executives.

    Welcome & enjoy ! 
    Jen Fontaine & all the team at Private Idaho

He’s kind, funny, filled with ideas and also very adept of understanding the needs of many stakeholders. He’s also brilliant at fighting for the talents needs and makes them feel safe to experiment and collaborate.

GET TO KNOW: Alex Arcuri

"The two things in life you are in total control over are your attitude & your effort" (Billy Cox)

Surrounding yourself with positive & kind people has become a priority for us all especially these last two years. This much admired & loved member of our team overflows with this attribute. Every client and team member looks forward to a production day with Alex Arcuri. Alex is a talented videographer, editor & content producer. It’s been over two years now since we met Alex on the Mentality shoot with a wonderfully talented photographer Peter Brew-Bevan. I was so impressed by Alex’s can-do attitude that I started to request Alex across both Guy & Jules Sebastian, the Human Nature guys as well as my gym content and Private Idaho work at large.
