Phillies Visit President Obama

[JawsofLife252]

I have been covering the Phillies a lot lately. I managed to get credentials to photograph this event at the White House yesterday. I couldn't believe they accepted a college paper, but they did. Great day for the event. Enough chat here are the photos. C&C please!

Wow, love the closeups! Very jealous as I've been trying to get into the White House for years, but I don't push it. Love the series, very sharp.

Thanks! Yeah it was hard getting approved. I guess they run a background check on you because the info they wanted from me was pretty crazy.

Wow, Obama in person! You're so lucky.
#7 bad hair day, way to greet the president!

Thank you. I had the opportunity to photograph him once before at a rally in Philly. I was press at the event as well, but he wasn't as close to us. Even the pool photographers didn't get that close to him there. Overall, it was a great experience. With a couple weeks til I complete my degree, I need to find a job that keeps me going back for shoots like this lol.
