"The position is for 12 months, however, should the candidate fit in, there is an opportunity for an extension," the job post reads.

"It's important that the selected person is able to leave home at short notice and be (OK) with potentially traveling for most of the year, sometimes coming home for no more than a few days at a time," the anonymous family wrote in the post.

The family asked to remain anonymous because of the father's high profile job, according to Perfocal, a website connecting photographers with people who need photos taken.

The family hopes to make the hire quickly. Their first trip starts February 2019.
