Remy Represents Our Class Of 2024 Crew With Resplendence!

Pretty sure this is the first time we’ve used the word resplendence on this blog.  It’s what Remy represents in this fabulous spokesmodel session so it seems like the perfect time!  When you look it up you get “other words for resplendent” being radiant, dazzling, gorgeous and magnificent.  Yeah those are pretty good.

Thing is Remy is just such a sweetheart and she’s a legacy since we photographed her big sis Harper last year and we’ve known her for many years, so we knew we’d have a fun time with her and mom Elizabeth when we headed out for some pics of this soon-to-be-rising senior at Berkley High!  Let’s get to some highlights!
 

Remy Represents With Resplendence

 
We started in the studio which isn’t uncommon for many of our seniors – we offer either indoor, on location or a combination of both and we discuss it ahead of time with a consultation in our studio!

We love this backdrop and Remy’s colors are perfect for it!  How adorable is she???

We changed backdrops here to the purple and we have some fun behind the scenes from Instagram (make sure to follow us there and you can tune in live to some of our photo sessions)!!!

…and the result!

Once again – great color coordination!  Resplendence!!!  😊

At this point we headed out on location where we had a beautiful day!

Remy Represents

LOVE.

We also have some more behind the scenes from Facebook.  Apologies in advance – the camera flip in Facebook (so any writing on clothing for example isn’t backwards) is pretty challenging.  Which is why……we usually don’t do it.  Lol!

Still fun though right?  Ha!  Okay Remy – say goodbye for now….

Remy Represents

Yes Remy represents this upcoming class in the very best way and we’re thrilled to have her on our team!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of her session and we are so excited for the class of 2024!

Elona Eliminates Any Doubt For The Class of 2024 Spokesmodels!

Elona eliminates any and all doubt that the class of 2024 will be an amazing one as she leads the way for our new spokesmodel crew!  It comes as no surprise to us since we’ve been photographing her almost her whole life (most recently last year for her 16th birthday with her crew), which adds a bit of surrealism to the proceedings for us.  Time flies!  We love this Cass Tech senior-to-be so we are thrilled to be posting highlights of yet more sessions with her in front of Ally’s camera!  Let’s get to it.

Elona Eliminates Any Doubt

Elona Eliminates

STUNNING.

We cover a lot of ground and styles with our seniors – this is a great one to kick it off with an urban look with some glam!

Here’s a little fun behind the scenes from the photo session first from Facebook:

And one more in that dress in Birmingham!

Elona Eliminates

Love it.

An outfit change later, you don’t want this smoke…. and it’s real smoke – we don’t photoshop stuff like this outdoors!

Elona Eliminates

At this point we relocated which we do often with our seniors – we actually plan these things in advance in a strategy consultation…  here’s a little behind the scenes from the next spot from Instagram:

Class Of 2023 Senior Petrina Perfects the Senior Picture Thing!

We were so happy when Petrina called us for senior pictures – she was here once before for a photo session with a crew of friends for Elona’s sweet 16 pics and she is a total sweetheart!  Not to mention she brought her cuz Patricia with her for a double senior session (Patricia was also at that first shoot) so we got to have double the fun – the Trina and Tricia Technicians show – as in Cass Tech Technicians!  More on that in the next post…  For now we focus on Petrina and her amazing pics, so let’s do this.

Petrina Perfects The Senior Picture Thing!

We have to give Petrina her props because it was cold.  Like really cold, and you would never know it – she was a total pro!  Let’s start at the DIA:

Petrina

And how about one of the cousins together…

BEAUTIES!!!

Sara Returns For Some Stunning Senior Pictures!

Sara returns to the blog and we’re all about it.  She brings plenty of style and personality to her sessions so we were looking forward to this one – her spokesmodel session was one to remember and the follow up contains some stunning shots too!  We had a great day with Sara and her dad David – we even hung out for a while after the session!

Sara Returns

So let’s get to the highlights starting in the studio on the black background:

LOVE!  Rocking the Grand Valley cap too!

Ryan Rocks His Senior Pictures Which Had A Little Of Everything!

Ryan rocks – what a great kid!  We went to high school with his mom Missy and we had a blast with them along with dad Jon on a cold snowy day in Detroit, along with some pics back at the studio and the finale in the Clarkston Wolves hockey team locker room!  Plenty of laughs, and as the title suggests, this session had a little of everything – even Barley their Bernese Mountain Dog!  So let’s get to the highlights!

Ryan Rocks

As mentioned we headed to Detroit first where we got this cool shot:

Ryan Rocks

Love a little urban decay…

We have some behind the scenes from Belle Isle too on Facebook:

Back to the studio we went first for a little fire!

A boy and his best friend!!!

Last stop – the locker room at the Detroit Skating Club!

Ryan Rocks

Such a cool look with the jersey and the team logo on the carpet!

Ryan rocks indeed – we had such a blast with them.  Ryan reminds us of our own son Tony a little and as of right now he thinks he wants to be a police officer.  He would be a great one.  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with him!

Building Entrepreneurship 2023 With BBYO Here At The Studio!

Building Entrepreneurship is a BBYO program that we have been involved with over the years – it returned last year in Detroit after a little hiatus and we were honored to participate!  BBYO is the leading pluralistic Jewish teen movement aspiring to involve more Jewish teens in more meaningful Jewish experiences, and both of our kids were very active in it while they were in high school.  We love to give back and anytime we can tell our story and mentor young people about business and careers we are game!  This year they came to us here at the studio and we were thrilled to host them!

Building Entrepreneurship 2023!

As we’ve said before we think it’s important to get young people to start thinking about viewing the world from a business standpoint – even if it’s just in terms of following their passions and looking at the social media platforms they are already on from a marketing and career standpoint.  Follow the brands and professions you like on Instagram for example in addition to your friends!  See how they operate, how they communicate to their communities.  It’s easy to learn plenty even if you aren’t sure what you want to do with your life!  The girls asked some great questions and some of them are clearly already thinking about their futures.

We have a little fun behind the scenes from Facebook:

After we told the story of Frameable Faces with some tips about how we grew the business and some advice mixed in we took a couple of fun group photos and put together this fun composite!

Building Entrepreneurship 2023

We loved hosting Building Entrepreneurship 2023 and we look forward to being a part of this wonderful program again next year!

Syd The Kid Is Now Syd WITH Kid, Hubby Matt & Baby Charli!

Things continue to take turns for the surreal here as we had our first high school senior return with her baby!!!  We used to call Sydney “Syd the Kid” (Syd is 4th from the top) and now she’s Syd WITH Kid – and hubby Matt!  This was so cool and we were giddy when she called to say she wanted to bring Charli to the studio for her first photo session!  With a little assist from Grandma Jane we got some fantastic portraits that we are thrilled to share!

Baby Charli!

Charli

Look at that beautiful lil’ nugget!!!  Think she’s ready for her closeup…

Charli

We have some fun behind the scenes as well from Facebook:

…and the result:

Charli

Here’s another with the rainbow tutu…

Charli

And we’ll leave you with a little……..blooper?  Hehe… this is classic.

And there you have it!  Charli’s debut was truly memorable and we are SO happy for Syd and Matt!  We hope they get some sleep.  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with them and Charli!
