Johnson became the first U.S. president to employ a full-time, civilian <a href=\"https:\/\/petapixel.com\/2017\/01\/24\/photographing-president-look-back-every-white-house-photographer\/\">White House photographer<\/a>, the photo documentation of the President\u2019s life and times during office have provided a valuable insight into the Presidency.<\/p>\n<p>But who is the woman behind the lens that is now in charge of documenting one of America\u2019s most controversial presidents? We did some digging and came up with some interesting facts to know about the new White House photographer of the 45th President of the United States.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. She is not new to the White House.<\/strong>\u00a0Craighead was the photo editor for the office of former Vice President Dick Cheney and former First Lady Laura Bush\u2019s personal photographer. She also served as then Governor Sarah Palin\u2019s campaign photographer during the 2008 Presidential campaign.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_29854\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29854\" style=\"width: 639px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29854\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Shealah_Craighead_with_George_W._Bush.jpg\" alt=\"Eric Draper [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons\" width=\"639\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Shealah_Craighead_with_George_W._Bush.jpg 639w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Shealah_Craighead_with_George_W._Bush-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-29854\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eric Draper [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<div class=\"aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. She rides a Harley Davidson<\/strong>. Craighead often posts pictures of her bike on social media\u2026<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BHGURp9DflH\/?taken-by=shealahdcphoto&#038;hl=en<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. She shoots Canon.<\/strong> Canon has a stronghold on the White House, it seems, because just like White House Photographer <a href=\"https:\/\/fstoppers.com\/news\/former-white-house-photographer-pete-souza-still-working-american-public-164095\">Pete Souza<\/a> before her, Craighead shoots with Canon DSLR cameras. (Although, Sony did make it to the Oval Office for a brief stint in 2015 when Souza temporarily switched to the mirrorless Sony A7rII. (He ultimately went back to Canon.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. She\u2019s a fan of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/ttpsbsm.html\">Think Tank\u2019s Pro Speed Belts<\/a><\/strong>. \u00a0Perfect for carrying her camera AND Chanel lip gloss.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/t6MWtxrZ10\/?taken-by=shealahdcphoto<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. She\u2019s close to the Bush family, and even shot Jenna Hager\u2019s wedding.<\/strong> When former President Bush\u2019s daughter, Jenna married Henry Hager, Craighead served as the official wedding photographer for the ceremony which took place at the Bush family\u2019s Prairie Chapel Ranch in Crawford, Texas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. She&#8217;s into yoga.<\/strong> You\u2019ll find several pictures of her devotion to this ancient Buddhist practice on her Instagram account.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. She is known for her discretion and has remained mum in the press<\/strong>. In fact, you\u2019d be hard pressed to find any interviews with her, even from her days shooting Bush or Palin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. She added the number 45 to her Twitter handle in honor of President Trump.<\/strong> Her new Twitter @shealahphoto45 is a nod to the 45th President, but as of press time remains blank despite having more than 300 followers so far. (Her pre-Trump Twitter account is currently still active, though.)<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Stunning view of Arapaho Pass.
