The DC family obtained a surprise instantaneous during the cherry flower portraits
When the family photographer of Portia Moore and Damien Thomas changed the plans of their photo session in the afternoon in the tide basin this week, the couple liked the idea.
“We were supposed to go out on Monday afternoon,” said Moore. “But she said:” No, 7:30 am, it's just better. You miss the traffic, you miss all people and you get sunrise. “”
The couple wanted their two children, beautiful, 4 years old, and a year old, in most shots.
A few minutes after their session, Thomas spotted a familiar man in the distance – former President Barack Obama making a morning walk wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses.
Moore said she was distracted, trying to make her children smile and keep her toddler out of the water.
“Damien told me something and my brain said,” Why are you talking to me? ” I look at our children, by ensuring that they were smiling, ”she said. “And Damien says:” He's President Obama. “”
And the surprise visitor got closer.
“At this stage, it is 20 or 30 feet from a distance and I say to myself:” What? “” Said Moore.
The photographer, Briana Inell, ran to install the blow with Belle and Preston. His camera captured each Obama frame accidentally photographing children's photo.
“Did you have?” Said Moore, telling how she interviewed Inell enthusiastically about the photo. “She has traveled the photos and I think I shouted and jumped from top to bottom!”
Inell took the photo just when the famous photobomber passed in front of Belle and Preston.
“I'm going to make an impression of 100 x 100 and put it on our house,” joked Moore. “No, really, we're going to put the photo in the family photo grid in our house. And I have a nursery school, so maybe I'm going to make a plaques book on this subject, something special for children.”
Moore said her daughter knew who has the famous photobomber through a black history program to her preschool.
President Obama was windy of the now viral photo and sent a message on social networks apologize to children for having photobombinating their portrait: “Preston and beautiful, I hope you enjoyed the peak flower! My bad on the photo.”
“It was so cool,” Moore told Wop. “He knows who are beautiful and preston. It is invaluable and a very special thing for children. ”
