The 69th annual Emmy Awards were filled with surprise wins, cameos, some possible snubs, and a lot of political references.

But when the cameras are off, there are a lot of moments between celebrities that go unnoticed. Some stars snap photos with each other while others get just as shell-shocked as anyone else to be in the presence of a big name.

We've rounded up the best photos from the show and Emmy red carpet along with some of the moments that didn't make it on air from back stage.

Felicity Huffman and husband William H. Macy were the most playful couple on the red carpet as they kissed and posed for a prom-like photo.
