The Oakland U Golden Grizzly Grads Enter The Blog!

by
No Comments

We had a fantastic college grad season this year and we added a couple of schools!  In addition to Michigan and Michigan State we went to Grand Valley, and now the TRIPLE Gs – the Golden Grizzly Grads of Oakland U enter the blog!  We’ve got the two varieties of on campus session with Johnathan along with a more traditional in studio headshot of former Frameable Faces senior Jenna!  Let’s start on campus:

Johnathan at Oakland U!

We’ve known Johnathan for quite some time and his mom Carla and I go back a few decades so this was a ton of fun for us to spend an afternoon on Oakland’s beautiful campus!

Here’s one of our guy at his home base up there – the school of engineering and computer science!

We even went live on Instagram for a little behind the scenes fun!

Jenna Makes Her Return

As for Jenna, we LOVE when we get to photograph former Frameable Faces seniors for their college graduation.  Jenna’s senior session was memorable and it seemed like yesterday…  For her college grad pic she wanted a traditional cap and gown portrait in the studio!

Oakland U

We can’t wait to watch these two take on the world, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights!

A Little Art, A Little Greek & A Lot Of Go Blue For These M Grads!

by
No Comments

We’ve been making the rounds to the college campuses around the state for grad pictures and this time we bring you highlights from a couple of Wolverines in Ann Arbor!  These two M grads were both delightful and we enjoyed our time with each!  Let’s start with Dave!

A Little Greek with Dave

Dave is a sweetheart of a dude.  We really enjoyed our time with him and he was a trooper because it was not warm…. but he’s going to be a teacher and he’s the perfect guy for it.  You would love to have this guy teaching your kid.  We hit the law quad first for this fantastic pic:

M Grads

Next stop we went by Dave’s fraternity house for this one in front before we parted ways!

M Grads

Love it!

Alexandra’s Art

Alexandra is an incredible artist.  Like really incredible – and her work was on display at the Stamps School of Art and Design – what a delight she is!  Take a look at this photo of her in front of this amazing piece!

M Grads

We were treated to Alexandra taking us through her art in a livestream and you HAVE to check out her website at www.alexandracollinsart.com! 

Here is the livestream:

Love that backlight!  She’s adorable.
 
And there you have it!  A couple of extremely accomplished Wolverines and we loved our time with both M Grads!

by
No Comments

Ah yes, Spring is in the air and so is college graduation!  This has become such a fun time of year for us and if this first crew of the 2024 college grad season in East Lansing is any indication it’s going to be a fantastic one!!!  We also lucked out with the weather – it was a beautiful sunny morning on campus!

2024 College Grad Pics with Spartans!

Let’s get to some highlights – how adorable is this group?

2024 college grad

There are plenty of spots around campus to use – some of them iconic and some of them spur of the moment!  The Sparty statue is obviously pretty iconic…

2024 college grad

Here’s a little behind the scenes from the bridge by the stadium…

Next is one of those spur of the moment pics – when you see a prime spot for this fantastic five to sit and the sun is hitting just right?  Spectacular!!!

2024 college grad

Now it was time to change into casual clothes and have some fun…

2024 college grad

This crew of besties loves each other!

Teresa’s Triumphant Trio: Senior Portraits in Studio, at the Library, and Outdoors!

by
No Comments
Teresa’s Senior Session was a “triumphant trio” of studio, outdoors and at the library!  We’ve photographed a few seniors at the library now and they are so much fun – partly because if a senior is into books then we have a lot to talk about because so are we!  Teresa was no exception – what a delight – smart, funny, adorable – all the things!  And this girl loves history which is Doug’s language.  A class of 2024 senior from Canton Prep, Teresa and her mom Ugochi joined us for quite the enjoyable day – let’s get to the highlights!
 

Teresa’s Triumphant Trio

We’ll start in the studio and on the grey background where Teresa wowed us with a beautiful outfit of traditional Nigerian dress…
 
Triumphant Trio
LOVE!
 
We also have some fun behind the scenes from this setup from Facebook Live!
 

An outfit change and a new backdrop later we captured Teresa on the red couch for this one:

Triumphant Trio

Gorgeous.

Okay now let’s get to the second and third parts of the trio!  First outside…

Triumphant Trio

Big fan of that one outside, and then we went into the library where we went live again, this time on Instagram.  But shhhhhhhh – you have to be quiet in the library!  Hehe…

An Artistic Approach To Senior Pictures With Amara!

by
No Comments

An artistic approach is indeed what we took with Amara for her senior pictures and it turned into a really special session!  Amara is a soft-spoken sweetheart, she’s a North Farmington Raider just like us and she looked adorable among the art at Danielle Peleg Art Gallery!  We’ve known the Pelegs for a long long time and they have done an amazing job with their gallery in Keego Harbor on Orchard Lake Road.  We are so thankful to them for the use of their gallery for Amara’s session and we love when seniors have ideas like this for their session!  We were joined by her dad Michael and her mom Yarisha for these incredible portraits – let’s get to them!

An Artistic Approach With Amara

Amara

LOVE the photo through the sculpture….!!!

Here’s one up close and personal with the pretty colors behind our girl of the hour.

Amara

At this point it was time for an outfit change:

Amara

There was no shortage of pieces on display for Amara to connect with…

And we’ll leave you with one more:

Amara

Beautiful!!!

And there you have it – an artistic approach that yielded fantastic results!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Amara!

Shamrock Rugby, A Pure Michigan Fall Day and OWEN!

by
No Comments

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!

Owen Crushes It

We started on location at CC:

Owen

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:

Looking good Owen!!!

At this point we headed back to the studio and here’s a little more behind the scenes from Facebook:

Great way to end it!  Hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Owen!

DUDE…..Drake Is Da Man. We Love This Kid And His Senior Pics!

by
No Comments

Dude…

If you know you know with this kid.  He’s funny – we had a blast with him!  His grandmother actually set this up and came to the session for the studio part with her sister and then his parents came to the studio to go through the results.  They are ALL a hoot.  And frankly we can say this here that senior pictures were not really on Drake’s radar going into this, but he absolutely had fun and we laughed plenty with this class of 2024 Waterford Mott Corsair!  Let’s get to the highlights!

Dude…..Drake Is Da Man

Dude

Drake’s got the milion-watt smile!  Love the formal look in the studio and we often think this works really well on the grey paper background.

Dude

As does the casual look!  What a stud.

At this point we went on location for a little fall color and we actually got some snow flurries!

Dude

And we’ll leave you with this one…

Dude

Crushed it.

Dude – we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Drake!  We’ll always remember this guy.

Jonah Makes His Return To The Blog For Senior Pictures!

by
No Comments

Jonah makes his return to the blog and we’re pretty pleased to present these highlights of this dude.  Jonah has been a fine representative of the class of 2024 for our studio as a spokesmodel and we were excited to get this West Bloomfield Laker in front of Ally’s camera again.  This time we photographed at a private location and it was soooooo cool.  We don’t have livestream behind the scenes for that reason, but we ain’t mad about it.  Not even a little – we had a great time with Jonah and his parents Wendy and Howard and the results rock!  Let’s get to it.

Jonah Makes His Return

Jonah Makes His Return

Looking good Jonah!

The grounds at this place are spectacular – perfect to frame our guy…

Jonah Makes His Return

As usual Jonah’s wardrobe was right on point as well…

Love the more formal look!

And we’ll leave you with one more:

Awesome.  See what we mean?  What a day, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with Jonah!

by
No Comments

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!

Brennan Brings It

Let’s do the Detroit pics first:

We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Instagram at the DIA:

So cool!

Here’s a little more behind the scenes from Facebook downtown:

Back at the studio

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!
