HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOO HEALTHY TRAIN FRIENNNNNNDS!!!!!!!!
First…
Our top 5:
Jodi Pfunder – 14.7%
Katherine Inskeep – 11.11%
Calla Evans – 10.62%
April Birkencamp Johnson – 10.16%
Rich Foster – 9.92%
SO freaking proud of you guys!!!!! And Jodi… ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! CHOOOO CHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
How’d YOU do?! Did you survive Vegas without gaining? I gained 2.5 lbs while there… but lost most of that within a few days of being home. 🙂
My total loss, since the beginning… 1.48%. Impressive? No. Am I happy with that? No. Am I giving it 110% of myself right now? No.
I can’t be disappointed in that number given the lack of focus. I assure you I’m not eating like a barbarian. But, I’m not going to the gym like I should. I’m not eating as many veggies and drinking as much water as I should. And yes yes yes… if I’m being honest… I’m a bit disappointed in myself.
Okay, enough of that! …and completely off topic. 😀
Here’s a little piece of trivia for you 🙂 Today is the 5th anniversary of the first wedding we photographed. So, happy 5 year wedding photographer anniversary to us!
A couple of photos from that wedding:
…both were taken with a Nikon D200 and a banged up Sigma 24-70 f2.8 that we bought on eBay.
Five years ago today… March 4, 2006. 🙂
In the past five years we’ve worked our asses off, we’ve given our clients 10000% of us, we’ve sacrificed a ton, and we’ve spent a lot of money. That being said, we’ve had INCREDIBLE people to take photos of, met the best friends we’ve ever had, we’ve had an amazing time doing it… and we couldn’t be more proud of where we are today.
BOOOOOYAH!
K, that’s all from me for now… 🙂
HEALTHY TRAIN… CHOOOOOO CHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

PS. DO NOT FORGET TO WEIGH IN! 😉 Oh and FYI, and your weight loss % is your TOTAL weight lost since the beginning. 🙂
Its so cool to see we all start somewhere. And man…this post makes me feel bad that I have totally fallen off the diet wagon.
A banged up d200 and sigma is the perfect way to start! You should be so proud of your success.
Awesome, Bobbi (and Mike)! 1)We’ll be posting our weigh-ins very shortly. 2)Happy Anniversary! It’s been great getting to “know” you. Looking forward to more. You guys rock.
Happy 5 Years! Isn’t it weird to think what your life would have been… I am so glad that five years ago you decided to take this step. One reason is because we got to meet you and have you photograph us, but also because look at how much amazingness you have added to people’s lives. Think of all the moments captured that no one else but you two could have done so beautifully. Thank you for picking up the camera, for taking that giant leap, for catching that first amazing shop and for making everyone’s life a bit more inspiring because of what you do! You are loved!
Dumb question, but why did you guys switch to Canon? I’m going to purchase my first DSLR soon and I’m in the “Nikon or Canon” debate.
Love your blog!
Love Bobbi & Mike and can’t believe it’s only been 5 years. You make it look effortless but only the best do:)
heck yes that’s me! it was great meeting you at WPPI. getting the WPPI SARS has definitely helped to keep the weight off, that’s for sure.
Sorry Bobbi, I just logged the weight in. I got the stomach flu from Vegas and lost weight from that, not in a good way. I’m actually STILL flippin sick. Anyways, thanks again for doing this, you rock 😉
YAY Calla!! so excited for you
Told ya February was my month! Booyah! I’m actually almost to my goal weight, so I’ll probably lose more slowly now 🙂 Thanks again Bobbi for the motivation. You rock.
Happy anniversary you guys. I can’t believe it’s been 5 years. You two are amazing. Love you both whole bunches!!
Thank you for sharing some of your first images! You are such an inspiration!!!
Its incredible to see some of your first images! (I’m also glad to see you switched to canon! I figured you always shot canon. haha!) You two are truly an inspiration to me. The photographer that I’m now second shooting for showed me your blog about 5 months ago. Followed every post since!!
Happy 5 years in the Photo Business, and here’s to many more to come!! 😀
Good job everybody!! I actually stayed the exact same 🙁 🙁 but I’m ok with that for now, I did really good the first month and thought I’d switch it up and see what p90x would do for me, did it for 2 weeks including some days at the gym and had no weight loss, so I’m getting back in my gym time routines and hope to have more of a success! Good luck everyone!
And yes!!! Congrats on the five years!! Keep it up! 🙂
Happy anniversary to you guys! What a difference five years of blood sweat and tears makes…. Every one of your weddings shows how much of yourselves you put out there for your clients because you get that right back from them.
I managed to lose quite a bit in Vegas apparently the long trek to and from tower three 9 million times to fight with the airline did have some up side! Now to try to stay focused now that I am home and back into the every day- that, to me, is so much harder! Thank you for keeping the train on track, it is a huge motivator! 🙂
congrats on the anniversary! so glad you guys came into this industry 5 years ago – you are such an inspiration to all of us!
Congrats on the 5 years! Your pictures are AMAZING!
What made you switch from Nikon to Canon?!?
