"The two-part expose by Vanity Fair reporter Chris Whipple included content from multiple on-the-record conversations with Trump White House officials, including Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, chief of staff Susie Wiles, press secretary Karoline Leavitt, and deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller. The article itself brought a massive amount of buzz, and Anderson's photos raised that to a nuclear level, with harsh lighting, unflinchingly close-up views of their faces,"
"Anderson defended the photos against his critics as photojournalism, as opposed to the retouching and flattery expected in celebrity portraits. The ongoing controversy over the release of the Epstein files continues to spark speculation about the connections the deceased child sex predator had with President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton, and numerous other rich and influential men. Yes, that's Jeffrey Epstein, Anderson began a caption for an Instagram post on Tuesday."
On-the-record conversations with Trump White House officials included Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, chief of staff Susie Wiles, press secretary Karoline Leavitt, and deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller. Christopher Anderson's portraits of those officials used harsh lighting, unflinchingly close-up views, and posed compositions that conveyed critical judgment and generated intense public reaction. Anderson defended the images as photojournalism rather than celebrity retouching. Anderson confirmed he was asked to photograph Jeffrey Epstein in 2015 and described entering Epstein's residence and seeing a young woman with an Eastern European accent preparing a massage table.
