Rsync via Applescript

Hello List.

I can use the rsync command string below in Terminal without a problem (albeit, it requests a password).
I have set up keys so when executed as root, I log in to the destination machine without a password.

Now I need to perform this via Applescript, but get "Permission Denied" when running as non root.
Placing sudo in front of the rsync gives me an applescript dialog message "Password".

What do I have to do in Applescript to get this shell script to execute without requesting a password.

Help is always appreciated.
Rick

do shell script "rsync -avz --delete /VPD/PictureTest.png -e ssh email@hidden :/VPD/"
