#145 PHOTOGRAPHING THE PRESIDENT

Today, in photographing The President, DC based photojournalist and portrait photographer David Butow talks of making pictures in a climate where image is everything. We talk about the stress and set up involved in photographing one of the most photographed leaders on the planet. As calls rang out from street protestors to 'Defund the Media,' we discuss the attitude toward photojournalists in particular, plus we get behind the mind of a photographer's decision and story making process.
