The best photos of obama's presidency.

The job of the official White House photography Pete Souza is arguably as busy as any of the politicians he keeps a record of.

In the past eight years he’s attended countless meetings and functions with President Obama, met diplomats, world leaders (even tiny bath robed monarchs) snapping every handshake along the way.

He’s also managed to capture some of the more candid, quieter moments outside of office hours.

Over the course of Obama’s tenure Souza has taken more than 2 million photos, the best of which shared with public online along with behind the lense accounts of what went down.

As the November election approaches, we took a look back through the archives.

Here’s some of our faves.

"The President's wave aligns with a rainbow as he boards Air Force One at Norman Manley International Airport prior to departure from Kingston, Jamaica."

"'Show us the Jeremy dance,' the President said to departing Social Secretary Jeremy Bernard, during a farewell ceremony for Jeremy in the State Dining Room of the White House."

"Although he doesn't play competitive basketball anymore, basketball is still a big part of his life. He had just given a speech on education and college affordability at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, and when we passed through the gym on the way back to the motorcade, he took a few minutes to try and drain some three-point shots."
