"If I am honest, I was hesitant to accept the assignment from [Vanityf Fair Magazine] to photograph the Trump administration. I assumed, incorrectly, that I was being asked to wear my 'celebrity' photographer hat," Anderson shared via Instagram on Thursday, December 18, two days after the photos went viral. "My journalistic sensibility just would not be comfortable portraying politicians the way celebrity photographers have in similar portfolios of past administrations. Not this subject, not this context."
"The job was to bring my sensibility as a journalist and see the subject with a clear eye rather than that of a 'celebrity' photographer. The job was not to make anyone look good or bad," he added. "My mission was to show up and photograph honestly and thoughtfully."
Among the images released by Vanity Fair were unretouched, and up close, looks at political figures such as Karoline Leavitt and Stephen Miller.
