Ben Is A Baller – On The Pitch, In The City and On His Senior Session!

Yes Ben plays soccer and he’s a baller – but we think that applies to more than just how he plays on the pitch.  We’ve known Ben and his family for a long time and he’s a good dude – you could say being a baller is just an overall description of this guy.  Good kid, involved in the community, athlete, student – he’s got it all, and we had a lot of fun with him and his mom Leigh on his senior session!

Ben Is A Baller

We started on location and headed over to Bloomfield Hills High School first to get a few photos of Ben in his gear – this is a great one!

Baller

Bad ass…

As usual we have some fun behind the scenes from the day starting with the replay of our broadcast on Facebook Live:

Time now for a change in location over to downtown Birmingham first with this cool close up:

Baller

And how about this one with the city lights and the Birmingham Theater marquee!

Baller

At this point we headed back to the studio to finish up once we ran out of daylight and we’ll leave you with this portrait of our guy:

Baller

Awesome!  We also have the behind the scenes Snapchat story for you – the filters are missing for some weird reason but it’s still plenty fun!


 

And there you have it – Ben is a baller and he delivered on an awesome senior session!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Ever Loving Emma In An Epic and Sprawling Senior Session!

We are ever loving Emma for sure in this senior session! It was one like very few others… across multiple locations, inclement weather that we ultimately worked to our great advantage, outfits, styles, settings – it was epic and sprawling and we loved all of it!  We also love Emma’s mom Lija – we had so much fun with the two of them!  The funny thing is we actually snapped a photo of Emma at prom with her date and our Lacey and her date over a year ago and hadn’t even realized it when they called to book her senior pics!  Like it was meant to be!

Ever Loving Emma

So let’s start with the first day in the studio on the red couch…

Ever Loving Emma

Love that!  Gorgeous and a fun playful photo of Emma!

We also have some behind the scenes fun first from a Facebook Live broadcast from the studio…

Next we headed to the ice to get this fabulous photo… these are always a fun challenge – usually with me walking out on to the ice with the off camera flash trying not to wipeout lol!

Ever Loving Emma

So graceful!

Day 2

After a rainout we rescheduled at a private location that we DO have available for future photo sessions if our clients request it and what a spot!  AND we had a perfect day with big beautiful snowflakes falling and no wind…  we started in the hayloft – check out the behind the scenes:

And here’s the result!

Ever Loving Emma

SO COOL!!!

Emma spotted a swing on the property and we jumped on it so to speak… we’ll finish with that photo!

Ever Loving Emma

How cute is she?

Lastly we’re going to leave you with the snapchat story with highlights from both days!

And there it is – ever loving Emma indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day(s) with her!!!

Could Mackenzie’s Senior Session Be More Marvelous? We Say No!

Mackenzie is definitely marvelous.  She’s marvelous looking, and more importantly she’s a marvelous person!  We love this girl – and it’s not surprising, she’s friends with some of our faves at Bloomfield Hills High and came highly recommended!  Ha!  Mackenzie and her mom Meghan came to the studio for her session and just like the girl, the results from this session are marvelous!

Getting Marvelous With Mackenzie

We started in the studio for just a few photos and we’ll share one to kick it off here on the black background:

Marvelous

Um, wow. 

We also have some fun behind the scenes for you first from the replay of our broadcast on Facebook Live:

 

At this point we headed outside to get the bulk of the photos on location.  We’ll start with this wall surface that we like a lot for a nice chill image:

Marvelous

How adorable is she?

Next we trekked to a little footbridge that we like in a more natural setting:

Marvelous

Love it!!!

We changed locations one more time and we have a little more fun behind the scenes from Instagram before we leave you with one more marvelous stunner of our girl:

Marvelous

Perfection!  Marvelous!

Yes as we said in the title, this session with Mackenzie couldn’t be more marvelous, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

We Had A Double Eagle Of A Senior Session With Sheldon!

A double eagle is rare in golf and it’s a truly excellent result, so we’re going to score our senior session with Sheldon this way!  It was EPIC.  Besides, we’ve known Sheldon since kindergarten when he and our Tony were in class together so this was another surreal session for us.

Double Eagle With Sheldon…

Sheldon’s dad Eric joined us and we had much fun and a great game plan.  We started in the studio with some fire with Sheldon’s clubs and his shoes!  We’ll highlight one of those to start with:

Double Eagle

Sweeeeeet….

We also have some fun behind the scenes action for you first from the Facebook Live broadcast we did in the studio:

At this point we headed out – first for a stop at the house to get a photo with the pups!

Double Eagle

Haha!!!  That’s a fun one.

We then headed over to Franklin Hills for a few photos on the golf course – what a great setting!  Sheldon is on the golf team at Roeper High and you can just see the focus in his swing here!

Double Eagle

Fore!!!

We have some more behind the scenes too from the Instagram Live for the last outfit change we’ll show here:

And the result….
Double Eagle
Great one to finish with!  A double eagle session with Sheldon indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Gettin’ All Municipal With Michael In Pontiac For Senior Pictures!

Gotta take a second to pat myself on the back for my alliterative title here for the day we got municipal with Michael! We dig the urban shots in Pontiac and we had a good time getting edgy with this dude. Michael is another senior we’ve known for a while since he and our Tony have been going to school together for years so we were looking forward to this one!

Gettin’ Municipal With Michael

We headed to Pontiac which is what Michael chose for the fun edgy city images.  We had a great time, talked some football and we got some great stuff, starting with one of our fave looks – the fire escape…

 Municipal

Lookin’ good!

We also played around with some graffiti and murals and some live streaming for the behind the scenes fun – first with Facebook Live:

We did a little exploring and this photo is pretty cool with the reflection in the glass of our guy:

Municipal

Here’s another outfit change with a little ASU style in the black and white…

Municipal

So COOL.

We also have another behind the scenes replay for you this time from the Instagram LIVE:

And we’ll leave you with one more:

Municipal

Good stuff!

Rock on – we got municipal with Michael and the results are killer.  We hope you enjoy the results of our day with him!

Holy Moly It’s Magnificence With Maddy On Her Senior Session!

Magnificence is defined as “the state of being strikingly beautiful or impressive”.  So, yeah sure we’ll go with that since it’s uh……SPOT ON with this girl!!!  Maddy is indeed an impressive young lady!  We’ve known her for a long time and this is actually the second time she’s appeared on our blog going back to the time of her Bat Mitzvah!  She’s also a legacy as a senior since her older sis Haley was also a Frameable senior so we were looking forward to this one.

Magnificence With Maddy

We were ultimately joined by the whole fam – proud parents Donna and Stuart joined, Haley cruised home from Ann Arbor, and the pup and grandpa all showed up – we love a fun family outing!  We mainly photographed around the West Bloomfield City Hall where there is a ton of spots to use including this awesome burning bush you’ve seen here before.  Maddy rocked it!

Magnificence

We also have some fun behind the scenes from the day – first with the replay of the Instagram Live:

Even Missy the pup got in on the action – a girl and her dog!

Magnificence

Okay how CUTE is that?

Here we have a stunningly magnificent image of Maddy just up close and personal:

Magnificence

Gorgeous!

We also have a little more behind the scenes from Facebook Live for you:

And we’ll leave you with one more with some beautiful backlight:

Magnificence

Wow! 

And there you have it – magnificence with Maddy indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with her!

Elan Epitomizes Character On His Senior Session – He Has It and He IS It!

We love this kid – he’s been a buddy of our Tony for years and he’s a great kid – and he’s a character in a good way.  Thinking about him can make us smile – Elan epitomizes character, as in he has it and he IS it!  We’ve spent plenty of time with his mom Julie over the years too – in the bleachers at swim meets, football games and even in her chair at her office (she’s our dentist)!  These guys were the first to call us for the class of 2019 so we had this on our radar and our calendar for a long time and we had fun…!!!

Elan Epitomizes Character…

We did a combo of studio and location work with Elan and we’ll start in the studio:

Elan Epitomizes

Now that’s a dapper dude…

We also have some fun behind the scenes action – first with the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:

At this point we headed out on location for a few – first with a cool textured wall that we like, and some photos just look good in black and white like this one!

Elan Epitomizes

Next we wanted some natural settings so we’ll finish with these:

Elan Epitomizes

Digging the flannel!

We also have the behind the scenes Snapchat story for you here with a few fun filters too…

And we’ll leave you with one more up close and personal!

Elan Epitomizes

And there you have it!  Elan epitomizes character and it comes through in the photos!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Advantage Donovan As He Dominates During His Senior Session!

It was advantage Donovan for sure as he totally dominated the game on his senior session on a perfect August day!  We’ve known “Big D” as we’ve always called him since he and our Tony were kindergartners at Doherty about a dozen years ago, and Donovan and his little sis Camie were actually in the window of our studio here when we first opened!  Love this family and Donovan’s mom whom I’ve always called “Downtown Julie Brown” and Camie both joined us on Donovan’s session!  His dad Steve was home sleeping (that’s a little inside joke).  As a matter of fact we did a CAMIE TAKEOVER on all the behind the scenes which is pretty much the cutest thing ever, so yes this was one to remember.

Advantage Donovan

We started on the tennis courts at Bloomfield Hills High School where Donovan plays on the team, and his serve is like a cannon shot…  We also started the Camie takeover here BUT *****CAUTION***** this is the only behind the scenes that you may not be able to really get through because Facebook Creator was really glitchy this time and we didn’t know until afterward.  The audio is okay but you may want to skip further down to the Snapchat story and the Instagram Live.  Our apologies on that – so let’s get it out of the way….

Now here is the tennis result:

Advantage Donovan

Looking good!

Next we moved on to some natural settings and got some great stuff…

Advantage Donovan

And now for the best of the Camie takeover – the Snapchat Story!  This is so fun!

Here’s one more from one of our locations:

Advantage Donovan

What a stud!

At this point it was time to head back to the studio and we fired up the Instagram Live:

And here’s dapper Donovan with the suit and tie look!

Advantage Donovan

And there you have it!  Advantage Donovan indeed and we hope you enjoyed the highlights from our day with him!

Taking Over Detroit For Senior Pictures With The Jack Attack!

It’s time for the Jack Attack!!! As in Jack’s senior pics in Detroit where we had an epic day!  Jack is a legacy here which is always fun since we photographed his big sis Kylie too a couple years ago!  With Jack we hit a bunch of spots including some Pie-Sci Pizza which is becoming our go to – we love hanging in Detroit!  Jack’s mom Kelly joined as well, so let’s get to the highlights shall we?

Jack Attack in the D

We started out at Belle Isle and we used the fountain with a new angle that we haven’t used before for a really cool photo of Jack with the fountain way in the distance…

Jack Attack

Love this – pretty sure we’ll be doing this again – it will be known as “The Jack” shot.

We also have some behind the scenes first from the replay of our Instagram Live broadcast:

We also grabbed a photo of Jack on the red bridge that we really like there before moving on to get some murals…

Jack Attack

At this point we headed over to the Eastern Market to get some photos of Jack with some murals and we discovered this huge one of some of Jack’s favorite hip hop artists – we’re including it here as an extra for fun – Jack is small in the photo but the whole thing is pretty sweet – check it out:

Jack Attack

And here we have some behind the scenes this time from Facebook Live before we get to a couple more photos:

Fun right?  Okay two more photos:

Jack Attack

Lots of great spots to photograph in the D…

Jack Attack

And there you have it – the Detroit takeover with the Jack Attack!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

A Million Kilowatts of Awesomeness With Kaitlyn On Her Senior Session!

Kilowatts are units of energy and it’s an appropriate word to describe the awesomeness that is Kaitlyn.  She’s a bundle of infectious personality and energy and we just LOVE her.  We’ve said this before but we’ll say it again – she’s one of our all time favorite people and we couldn’t think of anyone better to photograph on Ally’s birthday!  Kaitlyn and her mom Sara even brought us Yummy Cupcakes to celebrate!

Kilowatts

What’s funny is the timing of this has me (Doug) writing this on MY birthday which has me smiling too!  Kaitlyn is representing our studio this year as a spokesmodel at Bloomfield Hills High School at our son Tony’s suggestion and he was spot on with that recommendation.  We had an epic spokesmodel session with Kaitlyn in Detroit and we couldn’t wait to get her in front of Ally’s camera again!  But could we top it???  A million kilowatts of awesomeness with Kaitlyn would suggest a resounding YES!!!

A Million Kilowatts Of Awesomeness With Kaitlyn

The last time Katilyn was here we got some studio stuff along with the Detroit pics and this time we decided to spend all of our quality time outside for some natural scenery – of course we upped the ante a bit which we’ll get to but we’ll start in the meadow:

KilowattsSo beautiful with the pop of color!

We also have some behind the scenes fun starting with the Instagram Live replay where you can see I had a little fun with Sara – and who by the way is totally delightful which comes as no surprise as Kaitlyn’s mom.


 

As a little bonus here is a bit of twitter trolling from the video above… hehe….

Kilowatts

LOL.

At this point it was time to add some KILOWATTS OF AWESOMENESS to the session.

Kilowatts

Wow.

And if that weren’t enough, we finished with Kaitlyn IN the water!!!  First here is the behind the scenes replay of the Facebook Live broadcast:

And now….. well we’ll let these speak for themselves.

Kilowatts

Just stunning!

Kilowatts

One of our favorite sessions ever.  We’re going to include the Snapchat Story here too while we’re at it:

So there you go…  such a wonderful day and fantastic session.  A million kilowatts of awesomeness with Kaitlyn!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!
