Ted Cruz Campaigns in Georgia

There are many times as a freelance photojournalist that I don't get hired to cover assignments, but I go anyways.  It's important to me that I document history even if I don't have the luxury of getting paid to do it.  Covering Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz was one of those "self assignments."  Cruz made a campaign stop north of Atlanta, Georgia in the city of Kennesaw.  He met with press before the event and then made his way over to an airplane hanger to speak to supporters.
