The President's Photographer - 12-18-2011, 03:53 AM


Hey Everyone,

I just finished watching The President's Photographer and I'm interested in asking if anyone knows (or can possibly guess) the dimensions of the both the frames and prints that Obama's photographer, Pete Souza, is using at The White House. I've attached a still photo I took during the video.

Thanks in advance.

Update:

After reviewing industry standard full-frame dimensions, those being: 4x6, 8x12, 10x15, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36 (and so on)... I have concluded (after measuring Souza's thumb - of which the American average is 2.5 inches in length) that the frame to the left of Souza (chosen for its apparent vertical status), approximates 21 inches in height. Comparing these results, the approximated measurements of the frame may either satisfy the 16x24 dimension, or the 20x30 dimension. I would suspect the frames are the latter size, although I am uncertain.

Also upon inspection, I'd say the frame is approximately 2 inches thick; perhaps more appropriately 1 1/4". Would anyone else agree with this?

If its a big deal to you email the White House and ask. Seriously, it costs you nothing.
