I really like the picture of Ivanka holding theodore. Did you have a favorite?
The photo of him walking down the runway during the inauguration was very good. I have not seen much of her work, but Pete Souza, the Obama photographer, has a wonderful body of work.

Some of you might not be aware, but I like to take photos as a hobby (the branch outside of @LuisDantas window is one of my favorite spots). Anyway, so I came across this article which talks about the struggles and rewards of being a White House photographer. I just thought I would share.

I too am a photographer (www.dmsiii.com). Being white house photographer has to be a challenge. Kind of the equivalent of being a wedding photographer 16 hours a day. All kinds of people, in all kinds of light, doing all kinds of things. High stress but also high rewards... It would be interesting.

Souza would be a tough act to follow. He is extremely talented and had a much more photogenic subject.

Looking at her work she is also good. Sometimes her white balance seems a bit off (like in the picture of Trump around the glowing orb thing) but it's hard to tell. The president has such an odd skin tone...

Souza had unprecedented access as well. Pete and Obama apparently started working together when he was running for a Senate seat. So they already had a working relationship going into the Oval. I think she will do just fine and Trump seems to prefer a more active approach in regards to fielding/approving photos.
