    Hi wilmar,

    I have found easier to use the umbraco helper and work with IPublished content.

    so if you are getting the image from the path then you can do that 

    var myImage = _mediaService.GetMediaByPath("/media/adgasgd/someimage.jpg");

var uHelper = Umbraco.Web.Composing.Current.UmbracoHelper;

var iPublishedContentMyImage= uHelper.Media(myImage.Id);

var privatePhotosFolder= iPublishedContentMyImage?.AncestorsOrSelf()?.Where(x => x.Name == "private photos")?.FirstOrDefault();

if(privatePhotosFolder != null){
...
}

    With this one you can have multiple folders under your "Private Photos" folder

    (btw its not tested)

    Hope that helps
