Yervant1 Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 US Armenian photojournalist explains when, why she snapped the mostretweeted photo of Obamas tert.am21:03 - 10.11.12 A Slate reporter has spoken spoke with US-Armenian photojournalistScout Tufankjian about the photo of Barack and Michelle Obama that hasbecome the most retweeted ever. The photo was taken August 15 in Dubuque, Iowa, in the middle of a bustour, Slate reports. `It was the first day that the first lady had joined us so he hadn'tseen her in a couple of days. She came in on a bus that morning - itwas the first event of the day - and they embraced on stage,'Tufankjian said. `I decided to focus on them rather than taking awider shot, because I think I'm not alone in finding theirrelationship to be totally aspirational.' Tufankjian told Slate: `It reflects on the way that people feel aboutthe Obamas as people, rather than as public figures. The wonderfulthing about working for the campaign is not being with the presidentor on Air Force One or any of the things that would happen coveringany president's campaign. Spending time with that family is the thingthat's so wonderful. What the family is and represents to the countryis as much a part of the president's appeal as his policies. I don't know why they chose it, but that's why I like the choice. Asopposed to him waving in front of a flag or something moretraditionally presidential.'
