Love Pete Souza’s fantastic WH photography!

[@markharris5771]

An amazing and very humble photographer. Even photographers like myself, who don’t shoot people, can recognised the skill level of Mr Souza. To catch those pure photojournalistic moments of decision, possibly the ultimate 'decisive moment', and then the intimate moments led on a floor holding a baby is brilliance. If it’s 1.8 million images then it’s nearly 2000 images a day, that one heck of a workload. I could be wrong, but I don’t think we like this for our prime minister or even the royal family. A very interesting video.

Souza left an impressive catalog to sort through. His Obama book will remain on my office desk for those days when I need inspiration and a reminder that we had something great going on for eight years, even if he wasn't perfect.

No airs. No jargon. Simple. Honest. Great lesson for me..... Thank you Mr Pete Souza.

I followed his flickr account, or the White House rather. Very Good images. What a privilege he had. I wish him the greatest of success on his book.

Foi um presidente top e ele era muito comédia kkk o cara era top

[@andyhooutdoors]

Is he still photographing for Trump? If I were in his shoes photographing for Trump now I would dread going to work.

[@zanerichards8348]

Souza never was trump's photog. He was the photographer for Obama and Reagan.

[@andyhooutdoors]

@@zanerichards8348 Good for him.
