Lisa and Adam were the PERFECT way to end our 2010 season 
We completely 100% adore them. If youāve been keeping up with us for this past year, you know weāve had some TERRIBLE luck with weatherā¦ It was as though a rain cloud was following us! When we woke up this Saturday morning and Mike told me that it was going to rain all day, I said, āFantasticoā¦ letās have some fun with this today!ā You see, I KNEW that Lisa and Adam would be down for anything. I know I say this all of the timeā¦ but we really do photograph the best couples. 
When Lisa, who has VERY curly hair, heard what the forecast was, she did a switcho-change-o on her hair plans so that it could work with the weather. BTW Lisa, I JUST noticed that youāre wearing the same shirt that you wore for your engagement session 
Must be good luck! 
ā¦meanwhileā¦ HAHAHA! This was, hands down, one of the best group of guys weāve photographed. Rememberā¦ Adam is a percussionist These two met in marching band (I THINK Lisa was a flutist???). Anyway, most of their friends are also band-oās, who also happen to be my favorite kind of people. Generally speaking, thereās a unique set of characteristics that is almost always associated with musicians. 1) Comfortable in their skin. 2) Successful in life. 3) A bit eccentric. 4) Passionate, driven and goal oriented. And last, but not least, 5) Youāll ALWAYS have a good time when youāre with themā¦ no matter what the situation 
Adam was lucky enough to have rented a tux that had never been worn. He thought that the pocket had been sewn shut (as many garments have when brand new). Mike agreed and handed him his pocket knife. Uhmā¦ FYI for future grooms/groomsmen, itās a faux pocket. 
ā¦waiting for Lisa before their first sight. 
My view on the left, Mikeās on the right. So freaking perfect. 
It had quit raining for a bitā¦ So, we quickly hopped into our car and drove to a few fun spots. Lisa is the DEFINITION of a āFearless Bobbi Brideā. If you guys knew what this scene really looked like, youād he throwing Lisa some high fives. Most brides would have been flipping their poopy. No no noā¦ Not Lisaā¦ she trusted me. That being said, there were NO dresses harmed in the making of ANY of these images! 
OH how Iām in love with this!!!!!
ā¦it started to mist a bitā¦ NOT TO WORRY! OUR FANCY CLEAR UMBRELLA TO THE RESCUE!!!! 
THENā¦ it was getting married time! This was one of the best ceremonies of 2010. Yeah.. I went there. That look on Adamās face is SO 100% him! They wrote each other lettersā¦ the sweetest, most genuine, and quite hilarious lettersā¦ and asked their honor attendants to read them. Neither one of them had read the others before that day. That look on Adamās face was during the reading of his. It was, hands down, my favorite part of their ceremonyā¦ and Iāve never seen anything like it. If Mike and I were planning our wedding, we would TOTALLY copy 
ā¦husband & wife, officially!
Iām sure whatever I was doing to get that reaction was RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING! 
I couldnāt resist! Adam, thanks for being a good sport! 
Ladies and gentlemenā¦ GET READY FOR THE ANNUAL TOP 50 OF 2010ā¦ because THIS will DEFINITELY be in the top 10! Are you freaking KIDDING me with this?! OHHH Iām SO proud of it! Lisa and Adam, thank you from the bottom of our little hearts for not being pansies and being willing to go outside, in your wedding attire, in the rain. Our favorite 
+ 
ā¦the best manās speechā¦
This face reminds me of Patrick Swayze in the final dance scene in Dirty Dancing when he looks at Jennifer Grey and mouthsā¦ āand I OWE IT ALL TO YOU!ā (fast forward to 5:40ish)

What was the most memorable moment of your day?
lisa: There are a few memorable moments I will keep with me forever. I LOVED our ceremony. I feel it was āusā, but what I loved the most about it was when our MOH and BM read the letters we wrote to each other. When Adamās letter to me was being read, I was so overwhelmed with emotionā¦.I felt like the luckiest girl on earth. Of course walking down the aisle with my dad was something I will always cherish, itās the moment almost every little girl dreams ofā¦.but the moments before that when it was just the two of us (and Bobbi ) I will always hold dear to my heart. I donāt get to see my dad as often as I would like, so to have that moment with my dad before he āgave me awayā, was very special to me.
adam: Seeing Lisa for the first time and seeing how gorgeous she was. Second moment: not crying AT ALL during the ceremonyā¦.at allā¦.
lisa: Liar.
What was your favorite detail?
lisa: I LOVED my dress. I loved every little detail about it and wish I had a good excuse to still wear it right now. I also loved my shoes. I insisted on NOT wearing white shoes and loved that it was my āsomething blueā. My āsomething oldā was lace from my motherās wedding dress and my āsomething borrowedā was a pearl necklace borrowed from my 92 year old great-grandmother and both were wrapped around my bouquet. It was important to me to have personal meaning in a lot of what we planned.
adam: Having bobbi+mike there! Being able to celebrate with all of our friends and family in one place.
Any advice for future bride/grooms?
lisa: Uh, hire bobbi+mikeā¦.DUH! Seriously, not only are they the best photographers around, they are also genuine people who want nothing but for you to have the most perfect day and most perfect pictures. The pictures are what you will look back on to remind you how you felt in that exact moment. They are the best Once you go bobbi+mike, you never go back!!! Also, just soak it ALL inā¦it goes by too fastā¦..and enjoy every single moment of it.
adam: Do whatever you want, donāt base your day on tradition or otherās expectations of how it should go. Plan your day not someone elseās. But, be sure to plan enough time to party! (We second both Lisa and Adamās advice as officially the best advice ever, EVER!)
lisa+adam: Be sure you are able to tell Bobbi āYESā the next dayā¦.. HA!!! (HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!!)
Funniest memory from your wedding day?
lisa: Probably the Best Manās speechā¦.I had some explaining to do to my parents about a couple of his stories! OH, and when I realized I was holding Bobbiās hand (more than once) when she was pretending to be Adam. I suppose I was just helping her play the part
adam: Best Manās speech, especially when he said, āIām lucky enough to be Adamās BMā¦ā¦ā¦ā insert long awkward pause here.
If you could do it all over, would you change anything?
lisa: Absolutely not! The only thing we wish we had more of was timeā¦..time to spend with our friends and family. It all happened so fast, I feel I didnāt get to see everyone.
adam: Ditto.
Where did you go on your honeymoon?
lisa: JAMAICA!!! We went all-inclusive and had THE time of our lives. It was the best vacation ever
adam: I went to Jamaica, too. We highly recommend go
ing all inclusive, itās worth every penny.
Me with my brides I think this is, to date, the longest time period between two weddings. Jessica and Josh got married July 8, 2006. (a little piece of trivia: we shot our first wedding professionally on March 4, 2006).
Adam and me, taking pictures. You knowā¦ the usual. 
I just couldnāt get low enoughā¦ So, I put down a ziploc bag, hoping it would protect me from the elements, and laid back. (I had to get super low to get those wall signs behind them out of the image).
ā¦it didnāt work.

your enthusiasm for this couple was just INFECTIOUS! Man, you can just tell they were so awesome to work with! SOO many great ones, but the colors in that street scene? If you squint, itās like youāre looking at an Impressionist painting. AMAZING!
BTW: As someone with a sister 15-years-older than me, I have watched Dirty Dancing more than any 6 year old on the planet should. Meaning, I have it memorized. Meaning, when I came to that shot where you referenced it (THE LOOKā¦the best scene of the movie OF COURSE), I was all, YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!
You never cease to amaze me with your photos!! Iām in love. (And thanks for the comment on my personal blog.
I updated the $$.) I so want a bobbi+mike family session after our little one arrives. I wish I could rewind time and have you do our weddingā¦Iām so jealous of the daring brides you photograph too! Canāt wait to see the Top 50 lists.
Officially my favorite wedding of yours! Beautiful, fun, emotional, amazing! Love each and every image! Congrats to Lisa and Adam!!!

You guys rock! Thanks for the inspiration!
You guys are my heros ā every single wedding (and every single family/engagement session) is always the best one Iāve ever seen. And youāre funny. So all in all, you just plain rock!
You are right ā the perfect wedding to end the year. Gorgeous pictures!
LOVE the ceremony shots, and the veil shot with them kissing up in the corner? SO AWESOME! Sheās smile-kissing, which I think is the best
PS: Bobbi, love your heart hair clip. Youāre the #1 cutest!
Dang, you two certainly know how to end the year with a BANG! now, dontācha??!! And my fave? Ummmā¦the first one (awesome eyes), the Hooters shot, clear umbrella closeup, both clear umbrella walking shots, first āofficialā moment, groom clicking his heels, the toasāOH ā did I say I had a FAVE as in ONE? No, no, noā¦lol
I love that you guys do more than just take pictures, they are creative images and the pride you take in making them is obvious. Am and always will be a fan. Love it. I hope to be in front of those lenses one day!!
Wow, what an amazingly fun and fantistic couple!
Awesome work! Okay, I HAVE to ask because this happens to me ā when you walk into the venues wet like that, do you get weird looks from the staffers and other people involved? Just wondering haha! I get looks like what the hell happened to you, all the time when stuff like that happens.
Ok. The pic of their kiss made cry!!!!! Soooooo much love and excitement! Also ā nice tie, Mike!!! Iām literally saving that outfit idea for my man for our wedding. Lol. CREEEEEPERRRRRRRā¦ā¦..
Once again, fantastic pictures! Your work is inspiring, creative, fun, and fresh and I absoultely love it! I have been following your blog for quite some time now and still have yet to comment! So here it is! When it is my turn to get married (in the near-ish future), I hope to hire you!
PS. Iām a āband-oā too! But I have always referred to them as bandies
As the mother of the bride you done an amazing job, you bring out the best in any situation, truly great pictures, love them, thank you for the memories!!
I absolutely LOVE your pictures! I was just recently married (12/11/10) and in planning my wedding became a HUGE wedding photography blog stalker. Yes, I said stalker. It became my favorite thing to do! Your blog became my favorite blog, mostly because it wasnāt just pictures but also stories of the day, who the people are, and you are totally yourself!! Itās absolutely fantastic. Obviously, Iām still stalking your blog, but your pictures are just wonderful! Thanks for providing me with a procrastination tool and just plain entertainment, and beautiful pictures to look at!
Bobbi,
This is your long lost Mother speaking here. I love all the pictures and had a great time seeing you again. I especially like the street sceneā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.somewhat reminiscent of the Beatles Abbey Road, wouldnāt you agree? Ok, I know,you arenāt old enough. Well congrats on the awesome pictures.
amazing! dare I say this is my favorite wedding of 2010?? yeah I went there!
wowā¦ theyāre just amazing!! so gung-ho!
oh, i love the b+w one with the blowing veilā¦ what a perfect shot!!! and heeheehee, i was giggling away at your ziploc bag story!
LOVE the one that you āloveā ā that veil covering the majority of the shot except for their sneak peek is amazing. what a wonderful job you guys, the bride and groom and their wedding party did at making the most of the day and working with the weather. absolutely gorgeous!
Love it! Iām really digging the groom jumping with the umbrella and the veil shot. But itās so hard to chose cause theyāre all good!!!
I love these soo much!! they are so wonderful!! If you guys are still talking pictures when I get married in 10 years Iām having you take mine! It was an awesome wedding thanks for having us!
Love, your favorite cousin<33
Wow yāall ā LOVE these! Bobbi ā the reflection of you + the bride in the ring shot is awesome, itās like a 2nd image in the image.
The shot of them walking across the street is just amazing, those colors! And I LOVE the one of them hugging in front of the window!
I donāt even know them and I want a copy of the street scene for MY wall! What an amazing capture, AS USUAL!
Bobbi and Mike, I absolutely love your work. My husband and I just used one of our pre-boarding passes for your class at WPPI. We look forward to meeting you. Thank you for all of your hard work you two are wonderful examples.
beeeauuutiful! the black and white shot with the veilā¦GENIUS.
LOVE these! Adore the black-and-white with the umbrella oneā¦stunning! I find myself giggling all the way through your postsā¦LOVE THEM!
EVERY blog post should have a reference to Dirty Dancing! HA! Love it!
You guys are phenomenal! I just wanted to let you know that Lisa and Adam are awesome people (As i am sure you know) and I absolutely adore all of the pictures! They are beyond breath-taking!
That veil shot = perfection. Iām in love with it.
Whoa, these are incredible. The bride and groom have to be loving these. BTWā¦Mike if you need an attorney to defend you for destroying rental property, I know one (not a good one, but I know one) Very funny story. Bride and groom kiss=fire
these are fantasticā¦ I love it when a Bride and groom are not fussy and high maintenance and just want to have the best day!
this wedding was so beautiful and expressions priceless, and you guys caught it ALL! AMAZING JOB!
WOW! The wedding pictures and the engagment pictures are just absolutely priceless. You truly captured their spirit, and the intimacy of such a special wedding ceremony. I laughed and cried looking at the pictures, it was just such a very beautiful day. We asked Adam & Lisa, if they could get married again next year so we could have such a great time, (again)ā¦of course we would all have to pay a ācover chargeā..LOL. Super fantastic Bobbiā¦the photography gods are with you.
Happy New Year,
Melany, (Adamās Aunt), (and Lisaās too)
So you are amazing as always!!! and Yes! Yes! Yes! Love your all time fav of them walking across the road. I had to just gaze at it for over 5 minutes it is THAT beautiful!!!
1. Iāve been trying to come up with my favorite picture and I just canātā¦each one takes me back to that moment and I remember how special it was or the story behind the picture. Though I do have a few faves, itās impossible to choose just one.
2. In the picture of the 4 of us, Mike looks like a GIANT compared to us!!!
3. THANK YOU for giving us something wonderful to look back on
GOSH these are so gorgeous! I am absolutely in love with your style. So fresh and clean. I donāt know how to do that yet! Iām so saturated. Love the work!
