Meet Miss Ella

 

 

 

 

 She's HILARIOUS!

 

 

 

 

 AND gorgeous!

 

 

 

 

 and sweet:)

 

 

 

 

 

 Then it was time for photos of just mom and dad. :D  They're getting married in November, YAHOOOOSKI!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sara, you're beautiful.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Our favorite!:!:+:?:

 

 

 

 

This was the second el camino we came across.  So, what the hell… let's work it out!

 

 

 

 

 In this photo… Mark looks like Tom Cruise. Anyone agree?:DHUBBA HUBBA!

 

 

 

 

 AYKM?!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MUNCIE, Ind.  Ohhhhhhhhh Sara, Mark and Ella! Sara and Mark have been together for about nine years.  They met at Ball State.  :D  Four years later they had the AWESOME Ella!  Now, they're getting married:D

We met Sara last year for dinner when she was researching a photographer.  She came sans Ella and Mark.  She told us then that Ella was a ham and that Mark doesn't like getting his photo taken.  When we met Miss Ella, "ham" was an understatement… NEVER have we met a five year old with SO much personality, so much energy, so much life!!!! I think that if we ever had a daughter… we would hope she's like her.  Mark, as already mentioned, knew that he and Sara needed engagement photos… but certainly wasn't a big fan of the idea.  He's so nice, very attractive and funny!  Why wouldn't someone with such a perfect smile like getting his photo taken?  Beats me… but after a few minutes in front of the camera… he put those feelings aside for us :D  Sara however was THRILLLLLLLED to have professional photos of their little family.  When we first arrived, she walks up to our car (with a HUGE tub of chocolate chip cookies… YUM!) and says, "I'm SO excited… you make everyone look so beautiful!"  Well Sara… you ARE beautiful so it's easy!

Sara's quite a blog reader (she even comments… which we love!) so oftentimes she would know exactly what we were thinking about certain photo spots before we even had to explain ourselves. She's so damn cute!

You guys rock… see you again in November!

What a lovely session. Such a cute family.

Sarah QJuly 3, 2008 - 6:25 pm

That mom is SO gorgeous! Ella is adorable, too. These are GREAT (as usual!)

MombaJuly 3, 2008 - 1:52 pm

Hey Bobsteroonie,

I have been out of touch. You have had as busy, busy Momba. I feel guilty that I haven’t commented on your blog for a while. Sara and Mark are an adorable couple. Miss Ella is a real cutie. My favorite shot is the one you and Mikey selected. Great job.

Love you both,

Momba

I can only hope that one day I’ll get my picture taken in front of an El Camino. *Sigh*
These are awesome. Ella is a cutie!

bobbiJuly 2, 2008 - 9:03 am

HA! Michelle… I saw it ALLLLL of the time and often will put it in parenthesis so that everyone knows what it means…. (ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!)

Michelle MooreJuly 2, 2008 - 1:15 am

Oh, I figured it out on the urban dictionary!! :)

Michelle MooreJuly 2, 2008 - 1:11 am

Bobbi+Mike I LOVE your work, but really, I have to say, what does AYKM mean? I am guessing and guessing, but am totally clueless!! The images from this session rock by the way!!
xoxo

LoisJuly 2, 2008 - 12:13 am

It’s really hard to choose a favorite out of all of these. I love the first one with Ella laughing. I like the same one you do Sara, with you sitting behind Mark on the step. There are so many great shots, the red wall and the one where you are leaning against him. Great job – you have a lot to choose from and it looks like you had fun. I’m so happy for you. Love, Aunt Lois

totally great DOF in the first one!
2 is priceless!
you knocked my friggin sox off w/ the ones of Sara and Mark…they’re breathtakingly beautiful moments captured.
glad they were gr8 sports to lay in the road – i LOVE THAT!

What beautiful photos of an amazing family!!! Sara you look absolutely amazing in every photo as does your gorgeous daughter and handsome man :) You chose the best photographers in the country!! Maybe someday I can get Bobbi + Mike to come out to Seattle :) Amazing, amazing, amazing!! Thank you for sending these to me, I am so excited for your wedding in November!!

MarkJuly 1, 2008 - 3:19 pm

I just laugh everytime I look at the first picture of Ella, she is just stunning. That photo really captures our family, Ella at the forefront just being herself and the center of attention; what a character…..very well done.

shainJune 30, 2008 - 11:30 pm

Yes chocolate chip cookies do rock. So does your photog session too!

DennisJune 30, 2008 - 8:33 pm

What a great looking family! You guys rock!

Mary (Sara;s mom)June 30, 2008 - 7:10 pm

These are just beyond belief! Ella looks just like Sara did at that age. I love them all. I too like to one with your backs up against the wall. Sara, the one with you in front of the brick wall and Marks legs in the background looks very alluring. I’ve always thought you were the most beautiful girl in the world, and now you are the most beautiful woman in the world. (maybe I’m prejudiced, I’m your mother)

ChrissieJune 30, 2008 - 6:55 pm

It’s an unwritten rule: When in doubt, ROCK THE EL CAMINO!!! Fabulous :-)

NicoleJune 30, 2008 - 6:49 pm

Seriously can a girl have a more beautiful best friend I think not!!!!!!!! I better shape it up to be in this wedding!
love you sara-Nicole

K. MalloryJune 30, 2008 - 6:46 pm

Love. Love. Love. the one in front of the red and also the ones in front of the wooden door. And the one with the orange-y – reddish flowers. I could go on, but then I’d just be naming every single picture ;)

KimJune 30, 2008 - 6:02 pm

Wow what amazing pictures. I wish I had 10% of the talent you both have.

AprilJune 30, 2008 - 6:01 pm

This is such a gorgeous family! Beautiful shoot.

One Shot Beyond PhotographyJune 30, 2008 - 5:42 pm

What a sweet set! I *think* my favorite here is the one with the red wall. I say *think* because how can you pick when they’re all as fantastic as they are?!

Rebecca SchliemanJune 30, 2008 - 4:29 pm

What a gorgeous family! I love the shot of them with girl laughing laying on the ground! Beautiful work as always!

Lauren JenningsJune 30, 2008 - 4:02 pm

Great way to start off my Monday :) Even though it’s nasty weather outside I can always count on Bobbi and Mike to bring on the sunshine!

Nicole NeffJune 30, 2008 - 3:10 pm

I think he looks like a mixture of Tom Cruise and the guy who plays Jack on Will & Grace. And that is a compliment…I love that show!

Great job again, guys. Rockin’ as usual. I’m not going to say anything else because I feel like I’d just be repeating anything I’ve said about all the pictures you guys have done in the past. *sigh*

KellieJune 30, 2008 - 3:01 pm

All I can say is these are Wonderful – Hats off to the photographers

Miss Ella, is one of my favorite little friends – she is SOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL
but then again look at the parents.
Sara & Mark, thanks for sending these to me you made my day.
Now I can not wait to see the wedding pic’s.

zachJune 30, 2008 - 1:18 pm

AndiKJune 30, 2008 - 1:00 pm

Great pics, Bobbi and Mike! (And thanks, now you’ve got “You’ve lost that loving feeling” running through my head. Ahhhhhh, college.) Miss you two!
