Recently I had the opportunity to take photos inside the White House as part of the press pool. My channel is geared towards photography and travel, so I won't go into any politics or show any speeches from the press conference I attended, but I wanted to take a few minutes to talk about a few things I've learned from photographing in the White House, including bringing your own step stool and bringing the proper lenses and equipment. #whitehouse #presspool #donaldtrump The step stool I bought: https://amzn.to/2LQvgii The zoom lens I used: https://amzn.to/2Jms9A5 The wide angle lens I used: https://amzn.to/2Jsstx4 Being a White House photographer at a press conference means shoving yourself through a mob news and media team members and trying to find a decent spot in the East Room. (Note: I have no experience photographing in the Rose Garden or other rooms of the White House.) I'm by no means an expert and I'm sure everyones experiences vary, but this is just my own personal experience from being there twice - both in the East Room! So if you have a different experience or you're there daily, feel free to let me know in the comments! Whether photographing President Bill Clinton, George Bush, Barack Obama or Donald Trump, one thing is for sure: it's an experience you probably won't forget, for better or for worse.
