I cannot wait to show you all what I’ve been working on!

This wedding took place at one of the most beautiful places in Indiana: Indiana University The Rose Well House is one of the oldest original structures still on campus. They say that if you kiss someone at the stroke of midnight while under it, that you’ll marry them. Every time I have a session or wedding there, they always tell me about this 😉

Megan & Joey

Get yourself a husband who looks at you the way Joey looks at Megan.

Megan & Joey

HOW ADORABLE ARE THEY?!

Megan & Joey

I’ll answer. SO DAMN ADORABLE!

Here’s one of my signature wedding party photos.  I’ve been doing it for nearly 20 years.  I’ve noticed that there have been many copy cats out there and to be honest, I love that I’ve been in this industry long enough to inspire others.

Megan & Joey

Here is THE most iconic part of the IU campus, the Sample Gates.

Megan’s dress is the definition of timeless!

Indianapolis, Indiana

Heyyyyyoooo, I’m Bobbi the blogger!  I mean, kinda.  More like, I’m the artist formerly known as Bobbi the Blogger.  Well here I am again and I promise you I’ll be back here next week with something from the unblogged archives.

Now on to business!

 

Meet Katie & Evan. They’re perfect for each other! You’ll see. Just keep scrolling.

Katie & Evan

If anyone has been following my blog for any amount of time you know that I love coming across something totally unexpected and making it work; this time it was this little pop up shop in the middle of the sidewalk.  Oh, also… ARE YOU KIDDING ME WITH THE ONE ON THE RIGHT?! You knowwwww how much I love me some symmetry.

In Katie’s first email to me she mentioned that she’d been following my blog since she was in high school so you know how I had to ramp up that old school bb**! (IYKYK) And now, here you are; looking incredible with your incredible fiancé!

Before every engagement session I always ask my engaged couples what their favorite physical feature is about each other. Katie’s answer: “His cute little face.”  This image of Evan below is exactly what she meant by that! At least that’s what I think she meant.

Katie & Evan

“Little People, Big Sky” was never officially requested but knowing that she had been following my work for a while, I really wanted to make it happen. That said, it’s not always an easy spot to find, so I found the best spot I could and here was the result. I wish that I had a photo of the scene, you’d be shocked at this result. Honestly, I was kinda shocked by the result! 😉

Katie & Evan

If they aren’t the most adorable couple you’ve seen this week, then you must be surrounded by some insanely cute couples!

Katie & Evan

UGHHH! I CAN’T!!!! THEY’RE TOO MUCH!!!

Katie & Evan

On the right, we were chatting and about to head to our next spot and when in the middle of the conversation, I see this random concrete block in the middle of an overgrown parking lot. I interrupt us and say, “this may or may not work, but I’d like to try,” so I set them up like this, took three steps back and audibly gasped. “Oh! this is most definitely going to work!”

Katie, you’re stunning. Truly beautiful inside and out.

Indianapolis was really showing off for us that night!

This is the kind of image you share with your grandchildren, imagine if this were your grandparents, it would be a most prized possession.  That’s how I always try to look through the lens, photographing people and families as though they’re my grandparents.

Katie & Evan

Love this, love you.

Katie & Evan

Your adoration for each other is so genuine and sweet.

PS. I’m still blogging WAY out of order and I really am working to post all of the past weddings and sessions. There are just so many, it’s a bit overwhelming.

 

Louisville, Ky.

Guess who’s back, back again?! Bobbi’s back! Tell your friends! 😉

Linda & Jake

… BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW BEAUTIFUL LINDA IS?! Not only on the outside though, she is one of the most generous, genuine, and thoughtful people I’ve ever met. Truly. Those of you who are lucky enough to be loved by Linda never forget it because she’ll always find ways to let you know.

AYKM WITH THIS BOUQUET??!? But really?!! One of the most beautiful bouquets I’ve ever seen!  Their florist Grace is an artist.

Linda and Jake didn’t have a formal wedding party. However, when Linda asked for some photos with all of her best friends, you know how I be! “Ladies, I saw a cool green garage door around the corner, come with me!” Wedding photographer fo’ life!

Linda & Jake

I asked her to throw her veil to her side, I’d say she definitely nailed it!

Stephen and I love love loved all of their parents.  This is Joan and Wei.  Later on at the reception, Joan was the life of the party!

Linda & Jake

It was 39° during the ceremony. Linda said something along the lines of, “I’m not going to be uncomfortable at my wedding so I’m wearing a coat.” I’d say that was an amazing call.

Linda & Jake

Jake’s parents, Sue Ann and Ben.  After getting to know them and falling in love with their kindness, I told Ben that we’d been on the hunt for a grandpa for our kids because they don’t have one and then I asked if we could adopt him as their grandpa.  He laughed and said, “I’d love to!”  Maybe that was too far?  Probably.

Linda & Jake

Their ceremony was in downtown Louisville on the roof of their venue.  It was such an awesome scene.

Linda & Jake

Jake sat behind Linda in a class at Purdue and that was how they met. In the midst of his vows he said, “The back of yo head is ridiculous!” I laughed WAY out loud (you know how I do) because… welllll… it’s one of my all-time favorite MADtv skits.  “You bein’ all selective ‘cause you got a ponytail. right?  You think a lotta men can’t handle the regalness of a up do, right?  Don’t be insecure girl.  Own that ponytail! Work that up do!”

Linda & Jake

After the ceremony I mentioned to him that “Can I have yo’ number” was one of my favorite skits.

Linda said, “it’s from a skit?!”

Jake – “I’ve shown it to you.”

Linda – “You did?! Oh yeah, I kind of remember now.”

Linda & Jake

We did a quick walk around the venue for portrait time.

Two words: ON. BRAND.

I know you’ve already seen this one at the top of this blog post, but it deserved to be re-shown. When I placed them in the middle of the garage door and walked across the street and turned around, I screamed! “THIS SCENE IS FILLING UP MY SOUL!!! I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!”

Linda & Jake

Have we talked enough about how gorgeous her bouquet was?  I don’t think we have. IT WAS GORRRGEOUS!!!

Their wedding was truly the perfect day.

Linda and Jake, we are now friends for life.  I mean, we are adopting Jake’s dad, so I guess that makes us family?  😉  Next time we’re in Boston, can you please hook me up with that amazing bread again? YUMMMM-TOWWWWWN!

Much love friends,

Bobbi

 

PS. When I originally drafted this blog post I attempted to join the rest of society and placing the accompanying captions under the images rather than on top. However, I just couldn’t do it and moved them back. I’m sorry friends, I’m in too deep! It just makes sense that way to me. It’s a story and to be read chronologically. It’s just the way it is.
