There may be a new administration in power and a new First Lady in the White House, but some Americans are still hung up on the Obamas.
The 44th President and his wife Michelle Obama are not only missed for their work, but for their genuine display of love for each other. In a day and age were the pressure of fame can take a huge toll on relationships, the Obamas are an example of what true, unconditional and dedicated love looks like.
Even after 25 years of marriage, the much-adored couple aren't afraid to show their affection for one another to the public. Over time some of their sweetest moments have been caught on camera and are now inspiring the way another couple chose to celebrate their love.
Cleveland couple Cassi and Adam have become overnight internet sensations after their first couple-inspired engagement photoshoot began to go viral.
The couple initially wanted just one of their photos to be a duplicate of one the former first couple's pictures, but somewhere along it became an entire collection according to the wedding planner, Covesa Kelly and photographer, Natasha Herbert.
"I miss The Obama's SO much that when our Bride and Groom said "˜Can we try and duplicate one of their famous shots for our engagement pics?' I was like let's do an entire shoot- we can do this and this and THIS!" Kelly wrote in an Instagram caption.

Bride-to-be Cassi and her fiance Adam were inspired by their favorite shots of the power couple including their buzz-worthy cover photoshoot for Essence Magazine in 2016 as well as another sweet picture shot right before a taping for the 2015 World Expo in the Diplomatic Reception Room of the White House.
"I love when a couple can find something to inspire them and it was nice to see something that hasn't been overdone," said Herbert.
"As African-Americans we admire their achievements and what they represent," said Cassi, who is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Case Western Reserve University. "They have a love that just shines, and we wanted to capture that love in our photos."
As evident in all of the photos, Cassi and Adam channelled everything in the original photos, from the Obamas' polished outfits to their genuine love.
"It was great to pose and have the couple channel the emotions of Barack and Michelle in each picture," Herbert added. "After all, the Obamas are definitely a couple who epitomize a love like no other."
Cassi and Adam are set to tie the knot in December in Willoughby, Ohio. If their love is anything like the Obamas, we bet they will be celebrating many anniversaries for years to come.
