Kourtnie and Mike are OH SO happily married… πKourtnie has been faithfully following our blog for a number of years. So, for Christmas last year [her husband] Mike surprised her with a session with us. I called her Christmas morning to tell her. It’s official… Mike’s are gooooood husbands!!!M is for “Mike’s are Magnificant for Marrying!!”
This was the kind of session where we hop in our cars and drive and shoot… kind of like a drive-by-shooting… but at the same time not at all like a drive-by-shooting. π Anyway… we had a path in mind but as we were driving from one spot to the next, there were little spots that I hadn’t seen before popping out at me left and right. So a lot of the locations in this session were me just wingin’ it! π This gorgeous field… yeah… hadn’t noticed it’s amazingness the day before while we were photo scouting. π
If I stood in front of this orange wall, I’d look bald.Kourtnie, you’re absolutely stunning. ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!!!LOVE THIS ONE!!!!! It’s my favorite βI adore you two. Duh.
“Life without you would be like a broken pencil… pointless.”
My view.And Mike’s. He wins. His favorite. β

I always wonder what it was I was saying.
At the end of our session Mike decided to check out our cameras. He took that photo of Kourtnie. π
…and then he took this photo of all of us π It seems that M is also for “Mike’s are Marvelous Masters at capturing memorable moments” π (Thanks Lisa for the assist on that!).

Another classic bobbi+mike photo shoot! Yeah!
Fun session! But Bobbi, where did you get that awesome heart t-shirt? π
Eep! LOVE it.

“Mikes are marvelous masters at making memorable moments” π LOVE this session….so hard to pick a favorite π
I’m copying it… Yours is much better!
these two are so cute and smile-inducing! amazing set of memories, what a perfect christmas surprise! bobbi, you are looking hot-to-trot!
love.
Yeah for Mike’s! I am so looking forward to marrying mine next year. As for my favorites, the first and last are both winners. Beautiful bookends to a beautiful post.
hooray! what a pleasant piece of eye-candy to wake up to this morning. you make us look GOOD. π this will be a hard gift to top next year. π we had such a good time with you two, that i told kourtnie as we were leaving indy “i don’t even care what the photos look like…that was SO worth it…” naturally, she agreed. and naturally, the final product left nothing to be desired. we also decided on the way home to begin saving up for our next session. π
ps~ MY favorite is the one when mike wanted us to walk down the ramp to the parking garage, and the lady yelled at us (although she swore “I’m not yelling. I just don’t want you to walk down the ramp.” (As “said” from 100 yards away…). No offense, bobbi, but mike – that one would have been a winner. no doubt in my mind.
Sweet sweet stories, and freaking gorgeous couple!
i have a mike! i wish he’d do that…:) sure do love your work!!
I just laughed out loud in my office at your orange wall/bald statement. You almost got me in trouble:) What an amazing gift and you are so right, she is gorgeous! I am on the saving my pennies for a bobbi + mike session bandwagon too!
