Our All-Time Favourite Photos of Barack and Michelle Obama

Date October 3, 2017

Barack and Michelle Obama are celebrating a major marital milestone: 25 years as a husband and wife. Over the past quarter decade, our favourite former POTUS/First Lady pair has shared countless candid Insta-worthy moments. Fortunately—for at least eight of those years—a White House photographer was never too far away. The Obamas continue to fill our feeds even after they’ve left office (cc: Barack’s backwards hat and Caribbean kite surfing), and we hope that they never stop. It really doesn’t get more #RelationshipGoals than these two.

In celebration of the Obamas’ Silver wedding anniversary, here’s a roundup of their best couple pics.

Where it all began:

I miss you so much it hurts not kidding. Thank you for always taking the higher road @barackobama and for never losing your cool. Thank you for showing respect to everyone, for being fair and kind, and for doing your best even though so many people tried to stand in your way. I'm going to try to remember what @michelleobama said "when they go low, we go high." Thank you both so much for paving the way. ❤️ #YESWECAN. I'm not interested in any negative comments on this post please.

They sure know how to own the dance floor!

This is one dance party 106-year-old Virginia McLaurin will never forget. Click the link in the bio to watch her fulfill her dream of visiting the White House and meeting President Obama. #BlackHistoryMonth

Proof that they’re lovable: They have a way with children…

Have a #blessed Halloween.
