My bad for stepping into the shot.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people from all over the world come to the nation\u2019s capital every spring to see the cherry trees in bloom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The picture shows two happy kids smiling under a branch with pretty pink petals. In the background is the Washington Monument. Bush is seen walking behind them with his hands in his pockets and wearing a cap and sunglasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as the children were wrapping up a photo with their parents, Portia Moore and Damien Thomas, Moore posted on Instagram about Obama\u2019s unexpected appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLook who strolled by in our picture for our family Cherry Blossom photo shoot!\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cStory time! It\u2019s the kids turn to take a photo together and Damien is saying something to me,\u201d she added. \u201cI\u2019m just focused on Preston not running towards the water (peak mom moment). After that shoot was done I pick Preston up and asked Damien \u2018what were you saying\u2019? He goes \u2018that was President Obama who just walked by\u2019 and looks his direction. I was like whaaaaat?! I ran to the photographer and asked her if she got the picture. She scrolls through and BOOM there is it! The perfect shot!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">OBAMA PHOTOBOMB! <br>A local mom &amp; dad took their kids on a cherry blossom photo shoot @ the Tidal Basin yesterday morning\u2026 and look who walked right by! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/nbcwashington?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@nbcwashington<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nB9UMtDvRq\">pic.twitter.com\/nB9UMtDvRq<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Joseph Olmo (@ReporterJoseph) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ReporterJoseph\/status\/1907129222419612136?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 1, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Briana Inell, the photographer taking pictures of Moore\u2019s young children, told the Washington Post that she has been taking pictures of families and babies for more than ten years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The woman said it wasn\u2019t strange for tourists to walk by in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI go to the Tidal Basin every single year,\u201d Inell said. \u201cI\u2019m very used to people walking in on my pictures.
