Starting things off with my favorite βIan and Matthew are really smart, really competitive and really fun. They are going to be incredibly wealthy inventors someday… mark my words. Such a fantastic family. If Mike and I have kids, we’re calling Amanda and Mike and asking for advice on how to make my kids both full of personality and really well behaved. Those are usually not two traits that go hand-in-hand. High fives friends… HIGH FIVES! By the way, from some angles Mike (dad) looks like John Lennon. πMike’s favorite βThis is the photo that will be Ian and Matthew’s favorite someday. It so well represents this time in their world. π
NAME THAT TUNE!!!!

Gorgeous work as always. I love your use of negative space. I’m trying to learn to look for that more in my own work. The shots by the kids are awesome too! Mike you’re a goof man.
Love. That is all.
Dude, the fire truck shot just rocks! Love all of these and so wish I had something like this with my mom when I was a kid!!
These are BEAUTIFUL! Bobbi+Mike, please make a big ginormous announcement if you ever come to NJ. Amanda, they’re just amazing – you guys look SO great!
I love these pictures. Love them so much that I’ve pretty much stared at them for an hour straight with a giant smile on my face. Thank you so, so, so, so much for delivering EXACTLY what I was hoping to get from our session. You couldn’t have done it any better!
PS. I love that last one too. We had so much fun that night and you can see that on Ian’s face. π
Love them!
Holy Eyeballs Batman!! Mike’s eyes are like…wow!
Love all the photos,especially that first one in front of the fire truck. Dad seems really into ‘name that tune’ but the boys,not so much π
Great job by Ian the photog too

Your Mike’s eyes need their own blog post.
SUCH a sweet family! Love these Bobbi and Mike!
So great guys!
Our Mikes look SO alike: the glasses frames, the facial hair, the crazy eye color(s)! I love it! I think of my Mike every time I see yours and it makes me automatically love your Mike, too (maybe not in quite the same way)! Also, my song guess is Itsy Bitsy Spider.
These photo brought tears to my eyes and I dont even know these people!
Itsy Bitsy Spider….Love your work Bobbi & Mike
As usual…..Amazing! I think these boys are adorable and I love his pics at the end. Seriously how do you guys capture amazingness every time?
I adore the way you capture life.
Love seeing a beautiful friend and her guys on your blog!!!!
oh Bobbi! you’re so right about that fav photo of mine that is gonna be their fav photo! so heartwarming!
Love these! You guys are having WAY TOO MUCH fun–as it should be! Is is “The Wheels on the Bus?” at the “swish shwish swish” part?
Fantastic!! No offense, but you’ve got yourself some competition from that 5 year old…his photos are pretty impressive!
[…] even phase them. They were completely taken with bobbi+mike’s antics. And based upon bobbi’s blog post, I think she and Mike thought the boys did pretty awesome […]
I know this is an old post, but I had to comment anyway. π I LOVE this family shoot! Everyone is so relaxed and happy! I also love the idea of handing the camera over to the kids! What great results, and so fun for him!
