I was missing it. One of the defining moments of my life, happening before my eyes without me making so much as a single good image. I was in hotel in with four other Americans in Guatemala watching the election on television. As the results came in and it became clear the Barrack Obama would become the next President of the United States, I was excited and relieved, but also I felt left out. I watched as my photographer friends from APAD filled my inbox with pictures from the celebration, I felt a little jealous.
It was that night that I decided I had to come to Washington DC for the inauguration. Even if I never sell a single image from the trip, I am glad be a part of this movement, this moment.
