There is nothing a campaigning politician likes more than a good photo opportunity and a flattering image. Scott Morrison, who has long had his own personal photographer on staff, has perfected the art.
Take the black and white portrait of a studious PM working diligently as he flew west for an election campaign visit on Monday. The shot was taken by former News Corp photographer Adam Taylor, now the PM’s personal snapper, and published on the front page of the West Australian under the headline “PM’s Blueprint for Perth”. It was in stark contrast to the front pages lampooning Anthony Albanese’s election campaign, like “Does he Know his A*** from his Albo” and “Albasneezy”.
