The White House photographer just released their favorite images of President Obama over the last eight years. I thought they were great. m.9gag.com/gag/ajqEV90

I love those. He just seems like such a nice, genuine, warm person, and connects so well with people.

This was awesome I saw it on fb. I had to laugh when I saw the one where Michelle is wearing his suit jacket over this gorgeous gown. I'm pretty sure every married couple could relate to that!

I follow Pete Souza (I think that is how you spell it) on instagram and not only is he a brillant photographer (even the photos he quick snaps with his iPhone are amazing) but he seems to be able to capture the most interesting photos. It's one of my favorite accounts that I follow.

A wonderful selection. They capture him so well, full of warmth and personality.
I think he has a wonderful rapport with children/young people....he must be a terrific and very loving father.

SPIDERMAN! That was so awesome. Can you imagine in a few years time what that little kid is going to tell his own children......"Daddy once played Spiderman with the president, but I was the real one" LOL ..wonderful memory!

Pete Souza is an incredible photographer. What a job of a lifetime!
My favorites are always the ones with the kids. I cracked up at the one of the kid laying on the couch. 😂

Not one scandal, a loving couple throughout, beautifully raised children and class and dignity.
I love his sense of humour and the scale one made me LOL. Also the Jerry Seinfeld one hahaha.
They will be missed.

Is Pete Souza the official White House photographer - i.e. will he still be around under the Trump administration?

I loved that everyone was obviously looking away from them in that moment. It was very sweet. I love seeing this kind of photo work. It has to be a fascinating, though exhausting job. Does anyone know what event the speech at the podium in the rain is from?

I loved the one with the scale! So many of the photos he looks so sad, so much pressure on his mind.

Thanks for the link. There are so many cool photos. Obama really did seem to connect with the kids, didn't he?

I love a few of the ones with Michelle, but, I too, really love all of the kid ones.

I don't think so because someone asked him on Instagram what he'd be doing after January 20th and he said he had some stuff in the works and would keep them in suspense. I know Eric Draper was the official White House photographer for Bush. I never really thought about it until now, but I guess it makes sense that a president would want to select the photographer when you consider how much time they must spend with these people. Thank you so much for sharing this! I love seeing the silly, playful side of President Obama.
