From dealing with crises at home and abroad to winning his historic re-election bid against Mitt Romney, 2012  was a busy year for President Barack Obama.  

We've collected the most iconic images from the roller-coaster ride that was Obama's fourth year in office, as captured by photographers who have been on the scene for the most poignant moments, as well as the more light-hearted ones.

Things get a little heated between Obama and Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer during a greeting on the tarmac in Phoenix.

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer points during an intense conversation with President Barack Obama after he arrived at Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport in Mesa, Ariz. Asked moments later what the conversation was about, Brewer, a Republican, said: "He was a little disturbed about my book." Brewer had recently published a book, "Scorpions for Breakfast," something of a memoir of her years growing up and defends her signing of Arizona's controversial law cracking down on illegal immigrants, which Obama opposes. Obama was objecting to Brewer's description of a meeting he and Brewer had at the White House, where she described Obama as lecturing her. (AP Photo/Haraz N. Ghanbari, File)
