Press conference photos are the bane of the photojournalist’s
existence. Usually it’s one person or several, standing and talking in
front of many hands holding microphones, notebooks, video cameras and
tape recorders. It’s hard to make a situation like that look dynamic or
interesting. One of my mentors, who still works at the newspaper in
Olympia, Washington, taught me that a creative photographer tries to
make good-looking photos in any situation, no matter how boring and
mundane. I’ve seen him crawl on the ground to make good press conference
photos, and I’ve been taking his advice to heart ever since. Though I
wasn’t crawling on the ground for this photo at last week’s plane crash
press conference in Boulder City, I was pretty close.
