DP Review Interview with Pete Souza
« on: September 18, 2020, 05:43:20 pm »

DPReview has published an interesting interview with Pete Souza, the official White House photographer for Presidents Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama.

Quote
It’s helpful to have a background in photojournalism. And I think it’s also helpful to have the ability to disappear, if you will, in terms of going about the job with a small footprint. That’s things like not carrying loud cameras, not using motor-drive, remembering that you’re an observer, not a participant. Learning how to move about in those circumstances.

I think depending on the president, the [desired] qualities may vary a little bit, but that’s my approach anyway. It worked for me.

On top of being a talented photographer, he seems to be a beautiful human being with a humanitarian vision of the world.

Cheers,
Bernard
