National Geographic: The Obama White House Through The Lens (all four parts)

[Tx4obama]

Pete Souza is never far behind President Obama. In fact, sometimes he's ahead of him. As the President's chief White House photographer, Souza is the President's shadow. Now, National Geographic will follow Souza inside the Obama White House -- aboard Air Force One, backstage at the State of the Union, and into the heart of the West Wing. It's a behind-the-scenes look at the everyday grit of the American presidency and a chance to see what it's like to cover the most powerful man in the world, for posterity.

Note: The videos were uploaded last year, but looking at the view counts it seems like not many folks have watched them yet.

Enjoy

4. Wonderful behind the scenes glimpse...

where even in his unguarded moments, BHO's genuineness and humanity shine through.

Lucky Pete Souza--this is the high point of his professional life, for sure.

He really does have an amazing knack for framing the intimate shot--the close-up of the SOTU rough draft being a great example.
