I had the amazing opportunity to join the White House’s Google+ Photowalk on April 21. A group of about 25 photographers were invited for a private tour of the South Lawn, Kitchen Garden, and Eisenhower Executive Office Building. We had several surprise meet-and-greets, including Official White House Photographers Sonya Hebert and Pete Souza, as well as First Dog Bo Obama.
