Robert Burgess, Photographer
I have been a freelance photographer based in the Washington, D.C. area since leaving a White House staff photographer position in 1981.
I have covered Washington for Time Magazine, The Associated Press and The Washington Post.
I have worked as a still photographer for Ken Burns on his productions of The Civil War, Congress, Jazz and The West
and have served as a staff photographer on two presidential campaigns as well as several Senate races.
I currently undertake corporate and association marketing and editorial assignments, and document Washington events, Capitol Hill visits, business conferences and weddings.
