It's like if somebody says you're gonna photograph the same guy in the same suit for five years, it's very difficult. The most interesting part of covering the president, it's just the fact that he's the president of the United States. It's, you know, the center of power and I do like the controversy of who he is. -[ unk ]-- >> Whenever you travel with him, he has this whole entourage that travels with him, so for me visually that stuff is a lot more appealing to photograph than him himself. >> And a year ago I made a pledge that we will learn the lessons of Katrina and that we will do what it takes to help you recover. >> But yeah, I like to photograph the guy who carries the nuclear suitcase and his personal valet and the secret service agents, the SWAT team, they're called the CAT team that travels with him. Sometimes they fly on their helicopter. There's this whole secret agent thing, the secret service, I call them secret agents 'cause these men in black it's very X- Files myth. You know, a guy in the suit in the garage or in the wheat field or standing in trees, so that's always intrigued me. The-- you know, the lone agent next to a crown Victoria. It's kind of that whole like homeland security kind of feel. And then there is-- another aspect of it is, you know, Republican fashion that became into the fashion that people wore: the necklaces, the lips, the lipstick. And then there's the whole portraits of this cult of personality of this idolatry over the white people look at the president and the kind of just the stare that people got. I think in 20, 30 years from now, I think it's important, that's real anthropological look at America, America's society. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Pictures from the Bubble","description":"TIME's White House photographer Christopher Morris on covering the Bush Administration frame by frame","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/3NMwfxNt/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2006-11-06T10:45:53.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/3NMwfxNt.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/3NMwfxNt/","duration":"PT2M31S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/3NMwfxNt/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
