Default The President's Photographer

I watched "The President's Photographer" the other day and thought it was great! I've always like learning more about the Presidents and this gave some wonderful insight through the eyes of the president's dedicated photographer. It got some flack in reviews because the subtitle of "50 years inside the Oval office" is misleading. For the most part, it is about Obama's photographer but it covers some of the other presidents as well.

Any other documentaries that are photography related that you enjoyed? I finally got Netflix so I'm making my way through all of the documentaries that my video store doesn't carry!

I saw it on NatGeo the other night and got a great idea from it.


I have been wondering what to do with the wide range of great family images I have. Camping, fishing, parties... just life in general with 2 young kids and an active existence. They have a series of large frames in the white house (2 rows of 4 I think) and they are constantly changing them with the latest news & events from the "Hite House Family". Staff, kids, animals are all shown and it is a real talking point.

I have already been to my framer to design me a set of neutral styled frames that can take a slide-in of a A4 size print and they should be up by the end of the month. I am really excited!
It also means that the kids will have a set of printed & enlarged images representing their time growing up. Hopefully happy memories to reflect back on.
