Spartans Will, and We Will (and did) Photograph Them!

by
No Comments

Spring time is fast becoming one of our favorite seasons for the studio because of all the college grads we have been photographing, and this post is one of those extra special ones for us – we’ll get to that at the end… 😉

Spartan Strong and Spartans Will, So Sparty On!

Listen, we are more than aware having been a part of it ourselves with our son Tony that the Spartan graduating class of 2023 arguably went through more adversity than most graduating classes in the history of our country.  They were the class who was sent home as freshman for the pandemic lockdown, and then as seniors they endured the trauma of the mass shooting tragedy that took the lives of three fellow Spartans on campus this year.  As a group and as a community they persevered and came out strong on the other side, bonded and united together and ready for the future.  We are just happy we got to celebrate some smiles with a handful of them to focus on the overall great experience that each one of them ultimately had in East Lansing.

So here are a few images of a couple of the groups we photographed on the banks of the Red Cedar!

First up: Rachel, Elyssa, and Maggie!

Spartans

Adorable!  And now it’s time to really celebrate!!!

Spartans

Haha…

Next group… Ellie, Leah and Kailee!

Spartans

Gotta get the pic with Sparty…

 

Professionally we don’t want to show favorites.  Personally this next senior is our all time favorite…. we saved him for last.

OUR TONY!!!

And with his adorable girlfriend, Willa!

Spartans

We’re soooooo proud of him.

And there you have it!  Spartans will indeed and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of a few of our sessions in East Lansing!

We’re Jazzed For Jonah’s Senior Spokesmodel Session!

by
No Comments

Yep we’re jazzed to share the highlights of Jonah’s senior spokesmodel session!  We photographed him once before when he was younger for headshots, and now he’s back representing the class of 2024 for the West Bloomfield Lakers!  The parentals Wendy and Howard joined us (we even put Howard to work) for a great day!  Let’s get to the highlights…

Jazzed for Jonah

We actually started out at the Franklin Cider Mill which is a great location that we’ve returned to (for photos and goodies in the fall).

Jazzed

Looking good Jonah!  Time for an outfit change – our seniors can change outfits as many times as they like during our 3 hour sessions.

Jazzed

And here’s some fun behind the scenes from Facebook before we head to another location:

At this point we headed to the next spot for this one:

Jazzed

So cool!  Here’s some more behind the scenes this time from Instagram:

Fiery Antics With Anthony and More on His Spokesmodel Session!

by
No Comments

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…

Fiery Antics With Anthony

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….

Anthony

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!

Anthony

Looking great!

Anthony

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:

Awesome!  
 
Anthony killed it!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our session with him and we can’t wait for the class of 2024!  It’s practically here….

Totally Loving Talia On Our Class Of 2024 Spokesmodel Team!

by
No Comments

Talia is awesome – we are totally loving having her on our team as part of the class of 2024 senior spokesmodel crew!  This rising senior-to-be at Frankel Jewish Academy was here for a fantastic photo session and if these spokesmodels are a sign of things to come the class of 2024 is going to crush it!!!!  Let’s get to some highlights!

Totally Loving Talia

We planned on spending all of our time in studio because the weather was not looking good.  Typically if there is definitely rain coming we’ll reschedule our seniors but with spokesmodels we can spend time in the studio playing with different backdrops, lighting etc.  So that’s how we started out:

Talia

The red paper backdrop is always a winner – love this photo!

Talia is also a bit of a sneakerhead and she brought a full suitcase of shoes – which we LOVE.

Talia

Okay she’s adorable.

We also have a little behind the scenes from the studio on Facebook:

At this point we could see that the bad weather was holding off and we saw a window to get outdoors for a few pics so we did!  Our seniors have the choice of studio, location or both which we will map out in our consultation before the session takes place.
 
Talia
While we can’t guarantee magnolias in bloom all year round, we can say that the natural look with pops of color can be stunning like this one above of Talia!
 
We also have more behind the scenes this time from Instagram:

Totally loving Talia indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

by

What a great guy Aryx is!  His dad Kevin wanted to do something for Aryx’s mom and Aryx never really had a senior picture session so it was time to get some portraits and Garrus their Doberman Pinscher even jumped in!  What a great session – let’s get to some highlights!

Appreciating Aryx (and Garrus)!

Let’s start with Aryx and Garrus on the purple background – Garrus even had a matching tie!

Aryx

Love it!!!

We have some fun behind the scenes too – first from Facebook where you’d never know we actually got the shot with Garrus who has plenty of energy!  Hehe…

Now for a few of our featured dude:

Aryx

Looking good Aryx!

Introducing Talia!  We just photographed her mom-and-Frameable-Faces-legend Hannah before Talia arrived and now that she’s here?  Well…we are just amazed.  She’s adorable and as the baby of a former senior of ours things continue to come full circle here!  We spent an afternoon with Talia, Hannah, dad Brandon, aunt Maddy and pup Odie The Blue Eyed Corgi for newborn portraits!  What a day!

Remy Represents Our Class Of 2024 Crew With Resplendence!

by
No Comments

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!
 

Remy Represents

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)!!!

Remy Represents

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!

by
No Comments

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:
