Elias had originally planned on golfing with his groomsmen that morning… but it ended up being MUCH colder than originally anticipated… off to the race track they went 😀
Look closely at this photo 🙂

Elias wanted in on the photo action. 🙂
The Band Etc. ROCKED!
I LOVE this shot!!!!! I’m ready to go back!
INDIANAPOLIS Kari and Elias are so amazingly perfect for each other. These two have more in common than any other couple I’ve ever known. Kari and Elias both moved to D.C. to work in politics, love to read, are interested in current affairs, foreign and domestic relations… I could go on and on… see, told you they were a perfectly matched couple 😀
This was Mikey and I’s first experience at a full Jewish ceremony/reception… WOWWWWWEEEEE!!!!! WE HAD FUN!!!!!! They signed a Ketubah (the wedding contract), started the ceremony with ta badeken, got married under a chuppah, stomped on glass, blessed over the challah (braided bread). My favorite part was the Hora… circle dancing, the crazy clarinetter (not a word, I know), and throwing the bride and groom up and down on chairs. It was such a great party! I believe that celebration is called the Hora. ☺ Kari and Elias, along with their guests, danced ALL night long. Oh… and maybe we did some dancing too ☺ Hey… there’s no shame! WORK IT OUT!
Kari, on the morning of the wedding was SO incredibly excited… she couldn’t sit still… back and forth and back and forth and back and forth… she was so cute! ☺
As if shooting our first Jewish wedding wasn’t awesome enough… this was the first ceremony to happen at this synagogue! How lucky were we to get to be the first wedding photographers there?! I’m ready to go back! Sid, think you can make that happen? 😀
As a COMPLETE sidenote… When we met with Kari for the first time… we also met with her mom and dad. I remember the VERY first thing her mom said to me was, “HEY! You guys have to go check out that ‘horse dog’ outside.â€
“Horse dog,†I thought… “I better go see what this is all about!â€
Because Kari hadn’t seen this creature yet, she made Kari and I go check it out together. Kari was a bit embarrassed that she had to go out to look at this supposed horse dog… but off we went. That horse dog was so dang cool! I’ve since seen the dog around town and every time I see it I think of the Dunn family 🙂 Okay, that was a little off topic… but it’s something that I will never forget. My moment with Kari and the horse dog 🙂 ANYWAY!!!!!…
You two are an amazing couple… and we feel so honored that we were able to share such an important day with you. Thanks for everything. 🙂
Love love love!

You guys!!!! great shots and i love the picture in the bus of the guys and the picture of the bride dancing. looks like alot of fun.
Love all the fun bus shots! Your fav is definately my fav as well, simply amazing! Looks like they were having way too much fun with the Hora! Great work!
I love the bus shot, and the party shots are so much fun too! I also love the one of them hugging after the ceremony. Awesome new experience for the Bobbi + Mike team!!
Oh my Goodness. Does that look like a fun day. I feel like I was there just by looking at photos. The color is excellent. You both truly caught the emotion of the day. I love Mikey’s bus shot. I love the picture of bridal party watching Kari put on her wedding dress. The girls expressions convey the “awe”. Although my fave has to be the photo you and Mikey selected. Great job you two.
Love Always,
Momba
This wedding looks like sooooo much fun!!! I always admire the traditions of cultures and religions – so unique to each one.
Awesome job!
Way to totally capture the mood of the wedding! You have a gift. I also really appreciate your journaling and infectious smile too.
WORK IT OUT YOU TWO! I’m with Momba on this one. I feel like I was there.
Bobbi, do you mind sharing how you do those swirly dance pictures? Those are my favorites!
Love the photos, but where is the horse-dog?!?!?!?!
You definately got some talent here darlin, I too was waiting for the horse dog picture. When are you coming back to California????
i love how all your couples always look like they are having so much fun in your images. i wonder if it’s just you! beautiful ! you are awesome!!
The best man here…and You guys are great… We all had so much fun with you guys. These pictures are absolutely beautiful. I don’t know how you guys get the shots you do. Thanks so much, I know Elias and Kari and our families will truly love the shots. All the best!!!
Michael
What a great couple! I love these!
You guys both got some great shots!
xoxo
I feel pressure since the Best Man wrote in…these look amazing! The one wish Kari and Elias had for their special weekend was to bring their two families together as one. You captured the day so beautifully and I share in Michael’s comments that our families will love the moments you were able to freeze in time for us to hold on to.
Good luck to you both!

What an honor for the both of you–you captured the whole day, the bus WOW and the look on the girls faces. (I remember seeing Cheryl on her day) I can’t say enough about you two . Bobbi– 4 months till the wedding in Seattle sure you won’t come–I know you just happen to be busy that weekend, but we will always cherish Indy at the Omni. You work it out girl
love love love the hora shot Bobbi!
These are awesome! I’m sure they LOVE them!
Bobbi and Mike,
LOVED the photo of the B&G below the Ten Commandments. The synagogue is going to want to use that for publication:) INCREDIBLE!
Those would even make my mother-in-law smile…and that ain’t easy to do!!!!
Giovanna 🙂
Did you get any of the Horse dog? Too funny! The bus shot is great! What an awesome wedding…I do feel like I was there. Looks like so much fun. 🙂
I know we sent you guys a quick note before we left for our honeymoon – but now that the first pics are posted, we had to let you know (again and in front of all your fans) just how truly incredible the two of you are. You have such a unique way of capturing every little moment and creating a complete account of the day. It’s a story that couldn’t be told if not through the lens of your cameras. Taking a step back now, we are able to enjoy the story you’ve created even more. We CAN’T WAIT to see more!!
What a wonderful set of photos! Although I think I find myself saying that about all of your work!! 🙂
Beautiful!
Hi guys I love you! very nice pictures
