Oh Olivia we love ya!!! We have loved this senior pretty much since we met her – she’s cool, smart, athletic, nice, pretty on the inside and out – the whole package! You may remember that she kicked off the spokesmodel sessions for the class of 2018 with some shots that have already solidified themselves as iconic shots in Frameable Faces lore!
Oh Olivia!
So needless to say we were excited to get her in front of Ally’s camera again this time outside in a gorgeous setting and the results are stunning as we knew they would be! Since we were exclusively in the studio the first time around we went totally on location this time joined by Olivia’s awesome mom Liz, and……wow!
Love it – the blue shirt and the blue eyes!
We also have some fun behind the scenes for you – first from the replay of our live broadcast from Facebook Live:
At this point we focused on some of the pretty colors we found – plenty of purple, green and yellow goldenrod like this one:
Love that – and that lighting is perfect! Olivia looks amazing.
We also have more behind the scenes from our replay of our YouTube Live broadcast – such a cool spot on the bridge…
And the sublime result…
What a session… and we’ll leave you with this one last photo:
Amazing!!! Oh Olivia we love ya for sure!!! And we hope you all enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

As promised we present Part 2 of yesterday’s Twin Senior highlights!!! Yesterday the focus was on Hallie, and today it’s Shoshie FO SHO!!! Haha! Loving the results from the day we spent with these two and their mom Caryn – we laughed a lot that day and the girls were rock stars!
Shoshie Fo Sho!
The focus for both girls was the summer style portraits on location in a natural setting so today will be more of the same awesomeness, and we’ll start with this one on the edge of the Quarton Lake dock in Birmingham:
She looks great! A little backlight and great conditions that day too!
The next pose shows a playful side of Shoshie – much fun!
Love it!
We also have the behind the scenes live stream from Facebook for you – the YouTube Live broadcast is in Hallie’s post.
With twins we have plenty of time to roam around and hit different spots and here’s one of Shoshie in the stream…
Love her reflection in the water too!
One more of Shoshie close up….
So pretty – and one of the girls together in the water….!
So adorable!!!
So there you have it! Twin seniors, twin blog posts, twin highlights – double the fun, and we hoped you enjoyed the photos!

Twin seniors are a delight to photograph for lots of reasons. One example off the top is for starters there is usually no problem with getting comfortable being in front of the camera because they have each other to laugh with and take the edge off. Now to be clear it’s not that there’s usually a problem with that – we have a consultation ahead of time to meet our seniors, get to know them, and design the session around them and their style, but with twins there’s that added connection between them which usually makes for much fun. Now, throw in the fact that we already know Hallie and Shoshie (they are friends of our Lacey) and that they’re smart, hilarious and adorable and we’ve got a winner of a day! We’ll call this part 1 and focus on Hallie first, and then we’ll give Shoshie her own blog post – in alphabetical order (plus Hallie is older) – ha! But we’ll be sure to sneak in a twin shot too…
Hello To Hallie
We focused exclusively on location for the girls in Birmingham, and their mom Caryn came along. We had lots of laughs, good conditions outside and the girls did a fine job! Let’s take a look at Hallie who was game to jump right in if you see what I mean… lol!
Love the in-the-water shot!
Next we have this fantastic close up:
One nice aspect of summer sessions at Quarton Lake is that there’s plenty of wild flowers to be found and they make for a gorgeous shot like this one of Hallie:
Beautiful!!!
We also have some fun behind the scenes from our live broadcasts – we’ll show one of those here from YouTube Live and you’ll just have to check back for Shoshie’s highlights to see the video from Facebook Live (although it’s not hard to scroll and find on our page).
And we’ll leave you with one more of Hallie…..
….and one of the twins together!
So there you have it! An awesome day with these girls and Hallie rocked her photos! So did Shoshie – stay tuned…..!

It’s time for the Class of 2018 Spokesmodel Panorama…..RAMA! Haha – so when we were photographing our high school senior spokesmodels throughout the winter and spring of junior year I was playing with my iPhone to grab some behind the scenes panorama photos. These are not “professional” photos by any stretch since I’m not the photographer here for starters…. Ally is. But they are kind of cool and fun so let’s stack them all together and see what we come up with shall we?
It’s a fun way to recap these photo sessions with this awesome crew – in the studio, in the snow, in old crumbling buildings, in a park, two at a time, with moms in the background, with wardrobes sprawled all over…. we’ve had so much fun! Panoramas sometimes give you a distorted view along with the scope of the whole scene, and sometimes it looks like Ally is shooting in a completely different direction (but I can assure you she’s not)!!!
The Class of 2018 Spokesmodel Panorama RAMA!
Sami
Olivia
Nick
Cara and Alena
Zak
Emily
Jordyn
Lauren
Dani
Fun right? Just a fun and interesting way to revisit these sessions and we hope you enjoyed our Class of 2018 Senior Spokesmodel Panorama – RAMA!

Not that he would be anyway for any reason, but no – Joseph is no joke! The guy called and scheduled his senior session himself – he came in earlier in the school year to do his yearbook headshot just under the deadline and we planned out the rest together. So right off the bat he showed some responsibility that not all high school seniors display. Plus he’s just a soft spoken but plenty cool and confident dude and we enjoyed hanging out with him a lot.
Calm, Cool & Confident – no joke…
We started out in the studio and went with the blue / grey background which we really like. Here’s an up close and personal shot of our guy in a snappy casual look:
Now just because Joseph handled the plans for this session doesn’t mean that his mom Eleanor wasn’t involved – she came on the session and she got into a couple shots! She’s a sweetheart and here’s a nice one of senior and mom together!
How cute are they?
Okay now it was time to head outside for some location photos at Heritage Park in Farmington Hills, and we did a little behind the scenes on Facebook Live while we were there…
It was a little chilly but the lighting was fine and we got a couple of great photos… First on the rocks – and we’re digging the pink shirt!
We’ll leave you with one more against the picket fence – you can see the confidence with this young man!
And there you have it – Joseph is certainly no joke and we were glad to have him at our studio! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him and Eleanor!

When we say we’re kicking off our class of 2018 spokesmodels we actually mean we’re kicking it off! With a kicker – a female kicker! We are thrilled to have Olivia representing our studio and this is always an exciting time for us as we start to look towards the upcoming senior class which we’ll start photographing in earnest this summer. Some our favorite people of all time and very close friends started out as spokesmodels going all the way back to the graduating class of 2009 and we’ve already become fast friends with Olivia and her mom Liz. But first let’s back up a bit to the fall of 2015 in the bleachers of Bloomfield Hills High School…
“Check It Out! How Cool Is That?”
Our son Tony plays football at BHHS and when he first went out for the team as a freshman we were at one of his games sitting in the bleachers. The freshman team was down on the field and they play before the JV so the JV came up into the bleachers to wait and watch until their turn came. Ally being a nervous mom saw the size of some of the sophomores walking past and then….Olivia comes walking by in her pads and Ally and I said to each other “Check it out! How cute is she? And how COOL is that?” There were no girls on the football team to speak of back in our day. You see it more now but it’s still not that common and we think you need to be a pretty cool girl to be able to hang on a team of guys, and be a kicker where all eyes are on you every time you take the field to begin with!
Needless to say our wheels started turning back then as they often do when we’re on the lookout for spokesmodels. So flash forward to the varsity banquet at the end of Tony’s JV season a couple months ago and there is Olivia looking stunning, so we texted a couple people during dinner to ask about Olivia and we were given the thumbs up. Ally makes a break for it. So creepy right? Like, “we’ve had our eye on you for years and we want you to be a spokesmodel for our studio”!!! Haha! But we still had to see if she was actually interested, meet her and her mom at the studio and make sure it was a fit for everyone. So sure enough Olivia called and said she would be interested and when she and Liz arrived we fell in love with them immediately. Such sweethearts both of them!!!
Kicking Off With Olivia…
While we may be kicking off the proceedings we should also mention that Olivia plays lacrosse and she’s nice and she’s smart – she’s the whole package. But before we get to the beast part we started off with the beauty part of the session…. First we’ll share this one on the brown backdrop – we find the brown to be a great option to go with pink – a good color combo for this year.
We actually played around with a few different backdrops and combinations as we usually do with our spokesmodels and you can see some of the behind the scenes fun here… Let’s start with the replay of our Snapchat story from the day which ends with the “squad selfie”! 🙂
Next we have the replay of our live Periscope broadcast – if you aren’t following us on Periscope and want to join in the fun and be a part of our shows download the app and follow us at @frameablefaces, or you can watch from your browser and/or on Twitter too!
Now let’s take a look at some of the photos we did on the black backdrop. First we have this relaxed and fun shot on our black couch – black on black anything looks cool when it’s lit properly and we are looking forward to more of our black couch which is still a relatively new addition here on the black background.
Plenty of Beauty right? Now time for beast…
What’s fun about these next couple of shots is that it was actually hard to get Olivia to keep a straight face, because as much of a bad ass as she is, she’s actually very humble and sweet and she was giggling. Haha!
How awesome is that shot??? The football / lacrosse mashup!
Let’s take another look at some behind the scenes fun with more live video this time from Facebook Live:
And now one more lit photo in beast mode….
AWESOME! What a way to be kicking off the class of 2018 spokesmodel sessions! Much more to come from our new crew which is starting to shape up to be a very strong class! We hope you enjoyed the highlights from our time with Olivia! Stay tuned….

This isn’t the first time I’ve written about our daughter Lacey on this blog. She represented our studio this year as a senior spokesmodel and we already did one epic session with her in downtown Detroit. This time around it’s her senior session and it’s a good thing I’m writing this post because if Ally tried she’d probably be an emotional mess. It goes fast – really fast, and here we are – it’s been 17 and a half years that we’ve been loving Lacey and we couldn’t be more proud!
Loving Lacey…
So for this session we had a connection that gave us a green light to photograph at Cranbrook where we are not typically allowed to photograph so we took advantage of it. It was a great day! We even had our would-be-intern Brittney with us even though she’s leaving us to move to Colorado… (we’re so bummed) but not before she documented our day with Lacey in a unique way which we hope to share soon, so stay tuned…
Meanwhile we started in the studio to do a few shots so let’s look at those first on the grey paper background:
That’s our girl!
Of course we have some fun behind the scenes for you first from the replay of the Periscope live stream broadcast. If you want to be a part of future broadcasts and haven’t downloaded the app yet you can do so and follow us at @FrameableFaces at this link, or if you prefer to just watch from twitter you can do that here.
Here’s one more from the studio of Lacey with a cute red hat!
At this point it was time to head out and get some fall colors on this nice crisp November day of which there were some great ones!
This is one of our faves…
Here’s another broadcast replay from the location – this time on Facebook Live!
And here we have one more from outside:
I’m biased but I do love that smile… So yes we are loving Lacey and always will be. Don’t be surprised if there is yet another session (or two) of this girl before her senior year is done. Ha! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with our girl!

Hey hey Haley! We are excited to have this girl on our blog! Another long time friend of our daughter’s whom we’ve known for years, Haley is a sweetheart and our families are friends. So this was another one of those surreal sessions which seems to be a recurring theme this year…. lol! This session was complete with several wildlife adventures and provided for plenty of hilarity and some hiccups – like actual hiccups! But at the end of the day it was about the photos and it was about Haley so let’s get to the pics shall we?
Hey Hey Haley!
We started in the studio with one of our fancy chairs and the black background – love this!
She looks amazing!
We didn’t spend a ton of time in the studio but we do have a behind the scenes broadcast replay from inside that we did on Periscope – you can download the app and follow us at @FrameableFaces at this link or you can just watch from Twitter here.
We love these types of photos in the meadow – we had just a hint of fall pop in the background and the lighting was really nice – the conditions were great that day! We have plenty of behind the scenes from the location(s) too, starting with a broadcast replay from Facebook Live:
Before we get to the last couple of photos we are including here the Snapchat story from the session because, well…..it’s funny (remember I said something about wildlife adventures)! Plus you’ll also see where the fam jumped in for a photo! Stuart, Donna and Maddy!
So once again we say hey hey Haley – your session was highly awesome! We hope you all enjoyed the highlights from our day with Haley!

Those of you who know us here know that we wouldn’t “Josh ya” – right? Okay well maybe we would and actually that’s what we’re doing in this post right now! We bring to you….Josh! We have known Josh for a long time and he and our daughter Lacey have been friends for years. We also photographed his older brother Matt for his senior portraits so a little reprise with their mom Gayle was in order and we had a lot of fun and laughs as expected!
Time To Josh Ya…
We had a game plan to do some photos in studio and some on location so let’s start in the studio with the formal look on the grey backdrop!
Now that’s a fine looking dude.
We also have plenty of behind the scenes live video for you on replay! Here is the first of a couple Periscopes we did – this one in the studio. If you don’t have Periscope and you want to join our shows and participate you can download the app and follow us at @FrameableFaces here and if you have twitter and just want to watch from there you can do that too.
Here’s one of the location photos which came out quite nicely – Josh was a breeze to work with!
One more live video this time from Facebook for some more behind the scenes:
And one final photo up close with our man of the hour…
Sweet! So there you have it! We decided to Josh Ya and we don’t feel bad about it one bit. We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Haven is indeed a fashion maven and she proved it on her senior session. Let me explain:
Some posts just write themselves…. We’ve had awesome style and fashion from our seniors this year and with Haven we were not surprised – she has represented our studio for the class of 2017 as a spokesmodel (just like her sister Jubilee did) and we love this girl! I thought it might be fun to rhyme Haven with maven and when I punched it into a Google search “fashion mavens” showed up right in the definition. Done deal!
Haven Is A Fashion Maven…
So we started this session with the always fashionable cheer uniform – ha, and I don’t mean that sarcastically at all. Haven actually had some great stuff in store for the location part of the shoot, but as for the studio we love us some purple, black and silver when it comes to those Bloomfield Hills Blackhawks!!! Whoo hooo!!!
And while we’re here in the studio here is the replay of our live Periscope behind the scenes broadcast! If you want to follow us from your smartphone and be a part of the shows in the live chat you can do that here, or if you just want to watch from twitter you can do that here.
Here’s where we found out how strong Haven’s hashtag game is…haha – well, we’ll just let the picture tell the story….
How great is that top? Haven walked out with the #slay on and we knew she meant business! Love it!
Here’s the Facebook Live broadcast from that moment!
We’ll leave you with one more fabulous photo from the day…
Spectacular! We had such a great day with Haven our fashion maven and we hope you enjoyed the highlights from our day with her!
