If this session looks familiar to you it’s because Owen’s big bro Aiden was on this blog a couple years ago and Owen is also a Detroit Catholic Central Shamrock – except this time the sport is RUGBY! Owen and his mom (and our longtime friend) Kelly joined us for a great time at CC as well as a little time at the studio and we got some fantastic stuff…. Let’s take a look!
We started on location at CC:
Home field advantage!
There’s really so much to work with for our Shamrocks on that beautiful campus… and we also have some fun behind the scenes first from Instagram:

This was one of our final fall sessions and we sure got some Pure Michigan feels going here…
One more from CC…
Looking good Owen!!!
At this point we headed back to the studio and here’s a little more behind the scenes from Facebook:
Brennan brings it indeed in these highlights from his recent senior session and we aren’t surprised… We’ve been photographing this dude for pretty much his whole life going back to family pics and his bar mitzvah (photographed by our awesome event photographer Angela) along with his older sis Riley for her senior pics, and so on and so on…..so we knew this would be a great time with Brennan and his mom Monique. We go wayyyyyyy back – they’re family really. So let’s get to some highlights!
Let’s do the Detroit pics first:
STUD.
We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Instagram at the DIA:

We used a couple of our favorite “secret” doorways like the one above and this one hehe…
So cool!
Here’s a little more behind the scenes from Facebook downtown:
Back at the studio we got some hockey and letterjacket shots – Brennan is a Walled Lake Northern Knight playing for the combined Walled Lake hockey squad.
Dude es en fuego.
And we’ll leave you with this one in the hoodie:
Great one to end on…
So there you have it – Brennan brings it and then we bring it to you! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!
Fabulousness!!! Yep. This senior session with Meredith had a little of everything and this girl SLAYED. She’s a legacy Walled Lake Northern Knight for us since we photographed her big sis Meg a couple years back and we love this fam. Mom Carolyn joined us and dad Darren was able to meet us as well for part of the session for what was a PERFECT October day for being outside photographing.
Okay let’s do this – here are some highlights.
First the FORE and the FIRE!!! As in, well the portrait speaks for itself….
So cool – not to mention Meredith got a hole in one in her final round as a senior on the golf team – how amazing is that? We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Instagram:

Next we have FALL! There is always a short window to get this one bush that “burns” for a short while each Fall and we got it for that Pure Michigan feel with our girl:
Gorgeous! Let’s also give a shout out to Mandy Rose from Mandy Rose Studio for Meredith’s beautiful hair and makeup!
Our one regret for this post is that we couldn’t find a good word for books, reading, or library that starts with “F” lol… But the photo in and of itself makes up for it just FINE. Hehe…see what we did there?
It seems like at least once per year we have a senior who is a voracious reader and we love this vibe for senior pics.
At this point we bounced around for some other outdoor photos and here’s some more behind the scenes from Facebook:
And we’ll leave you with this beautiful photo of Meredith at the lake with a gorgeous sky and some off camera FLASH…
STUNNING.
And there you have it – fabulousness indeed and we hoped you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Meredith!
We are psyched to present these highlights of Noah’s Nifty Senior Session in the heart of Detroit!!! What a great kid, and we had a fantastic time in the D on a perfect day with Noah, his mom Lauren and her boyfriend Corey. We even hit a spot or two we didn’t know about which is always cool for us. Obviously there are tons of spots in Detroit. So let’s get to the pics of this class of 2024 Frankel Jewish Academy Jaguar!
Our first stop was Comerica Park where the Miggy retirement celebration was in full effect and we got this photo in front of the huge Tiger…
A roaring good photo huh?
Now let’s zoom in on our guy for a few…
An outfit change later:
Looking nifty indeed! We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Facebook:
Next stop Eastern Market!
One more destination – Belle Isle – and first we headed to the fountain which was actually on – here’s some behind the scenes from Instagram:

And last but not least – Noah plays baseball for the Jags too – so you don’t want this smoke coming from the pitcher’s mound….
How bad ass is that one?
So there you have it! What a day, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights!
Bringing home the class of 2024 senior spokesmodel crew with the dudes! Anthony crushed it – you might even say he was on FIRE!!! We weren’t surprised – Anthony is a great kid and we go wayyyyyy back with his parents. His dad John and Doug were football teammates at Michigan so we’re talking 35 years… pretty surreal to have Anthony here representing the Catholic Central Shamrocks for our spokesmodel team! His mom Lynne joined us at the studio for these epic photos – let’s get to them…
Anthony is a student athlete and he works hard at his craft whether on the gridiron or in the shot put and discus circles (and especially in the weight room) and we wanted to capture that grit and badassery so….
Like we said…..dude was on FIRE!!!
Here’s some fun behind the scenes as well first from Facebook:
After the flames died down we got to the business of capturing more angles of our guy’s personality of which he has plenty!
Looking great!
Smiling Shamrock!
We also changed backdrops to get a few on the white – our seniors typically try out plenty of different looks, backdrops, and locations too! Here’s some more behind the scenes from Instagram:

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!
As mentioned we headed to Detroit first where we got this cool shot:
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!
Stud…
We have some behind the scenes from that pic as well from Instagram:

Next it was Barley’s turn!
A boy and his best friend!!!
Last stop – the locker room at the Detroit Skating Club!
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!
We love being in a Pure Michigan Mood – when the fall colors are in full swing and we have a fun senior to photograph? It doesn’t get much better than that, and Merrick brought his A game! Merrick has been in front of Ally’s camera several times now going back to when he was little, and most recently as a senior spokesmodel for the class of 2023! We headed out on a brisk fall day for this session and got some great stuff – check out these highlights!
We hit some spots around West Bloomfield starting with this one which is one of our faves:
Awesome!
We also have some fun behind the scenes from one of our favorite burning red fall trees on Facebook:
And here’s the result:
Spectacular!
At this point we planned to get a couple on the track since Merrick is a runner (he comes from a long line of runners) and all around great athlete! We got some snow flurries which we used to great effect on this next one. Merrick’s mom Melissa joined us for this series on location and we had a few laughs! Merrick is a total badass…
You’re only cold in your head – it’s all mental!!!
At this point it was time to head back to the studio where we got a little more behind the scenes this time on Instagram:

Allegra amplifies the blog – now! This happens with awesome senior pics of which hers are, and we had a great day with this class of 2023 Seaholm senior and her mom Alesia! Let’s take a look at a few highlights!
So pretty in pink!
We of course have a little behind the scenes fun first from Facebook:
And of course we have outfit changes too…
Allegra’s colors were all on point, and the blue coordination with the shoes is adorable.
Love it!
We finished up with some golf photos and here’s some fun behind the scenes this time from Instagram:

Carly is awesome. We are so impressed with this young lady and we’re not surprised since we’ve known her parents for decades – I grew up with her mom and played high school football and ran track with her dad so it was a little surreal having her here ready to launch her coaching business Carly Ann Fit to the next level with some fresh new fitness photos!
You can follow Carly at her Instagram page – she takes the whole approach of mind, body and soul with her clients and she’s a motivational dynamo with a 90 day transformation plan for her peeps! Let’s get to the highlights of her session!
What a bad ass pose. And Carly will be the first to tell you that SHE worked really hard to get the body she has now – gotta love a fitness coach that is walking the walk. We also have some fun behind the scenes from the session first on Facebook:
