Former White House photographer Pete Souza is a bit less busy these days. So Netflix hired Souza to take candid shots of another “president” walking around Washington, D.C.—Frank Underwood.

While the actual president of the United States was in the Middle East, Underwood (in real life, Kevin Spacey) did a presidential tour around the nation’s capital, and Souza was there to capture it to get ready for the newest season of House of Cards this Monday on Netflix.

The shots are actually very believable. If you didn’t know who the President of the United States was, you could easily believe he was Spacey. There are no pictures of Spacey holding a glowing orb, but other than that, top notch work.
