Obama – A must see photo gallery
After losing her job at the The Pittsburgh Press, a staffer for Tipper Gore invited Callie Shell to photograph (unpaid) the last days of the Clinton/Gore campaign. That translated into being Vice President Gore’s White House Photographer for eight years.
Now a Time Magazine photographer, Callie has spent two and a half years covering Obama. She met Obama when covering John Kerry’s Presidential bid. When asked why she sent more pictures of Obama than of Kerry back to the editors, she responded that she had a feeling about him and that “he would be important down the road.”
I loved the photographs and the story. Check it out at The Digital Journalist.
