Nice Work If You Can Get It

Pete Souza, the official White House photographer, has one of the best jobs I can think of. To be present for all the moments, to have access where almost no one has access but everyone wants to be, to be able to capture those moments and share them. To be there when Robert Gibbs shares a funny Youtube video with President Obama and the team.

I bet it's hard work, long hours, and pitiful pay. But yeah, I'd take that job in a New York minute.
