2009 annual top 50: reception

 

HEEEEEEERE'S THE PARRRRRRTY!!!!!! I just want to jump in every single one of these photos and start dancing. :) OH how we love a good reception! 

Just as an FYI… it is RIDICULOUSLY hard for us to order these photos… and I'm always switching things around at the last minute.  When I hear what YOUR number ones are…. "DOH! That SO should have been in the top 10, what the hell was I thinking?!" So really… this isn't a CONCRETE order… but just a generic listing of what we think were our top photos of the year. 

AS ALWAYS, which is YOUR number one?!

Oh WOW it looks like you had such a fantastial year!! all of those weddings looked like so much fun and filled with so much emotion. My fave is 41. They are just about to walk in, we can’t see there faces, but we can still feel the excitement. 40 is also wonderful. Seeing the father take a picture of the bride and groom dancing, so sweet. :)

LOVE the multi-shot composition with the couple dancing. That is such a cool image. Your B&W is off the chain. I have learned to ‘embrace the grain’ from you – thanks :-)

What happened to that one poor bride’s hand?

I love numbers 1 and 2, however if I’m being really picky (which I’m not) I think I would have switched them. Number two is just perfect. I mean what woman wouldn’t want a picture of her twirling in her wedding dress.

Hey Bobbi and Mikey,

Oh my what to say it has been an awesome year. I love #1 and #16. That would be you cigar series. Cool effects on #8. I have never seen that done before. I love the photo with you being embraced by the girls. The joy in your little face makes smile.

Love you both,

Momba

Bobbi & Mike
I love your blog, I love your work, I love your annual top lists…however I think you need to add one more! I love your Bobbi & Mike ‘caught in action’ pics that you include in every blog and are at the top of the page. I think you need to do one more top list of your fave ‘caught in action’ shots of 2009 ;-)

Can’t pin down just one fav, you’re too good!! Love the graininess of 15, the contrast in 13, and LOVE the movement of 2. Really just the whole idea of 2. I think that’s such a classic photo.
