US Presidents & Hopefuls

Gaining clearance to photograph a sitting, former, or hopeful U.S. President is a career achievement; probably as difficult as being crammed in a tiny space with dozens of other photographers and media cameras all competing to capture "the shot."

Photography skills aside, many would agree that all photographers assigned to photograph were more concerned with their language that morning. Imagine the anxiety that would follow accidentally blurting out, "I'm excited to shoot the President today."
