Kollyns Is The Most Adorable Almost 6 Month Old We Know!

Melyssa was once known (and still is as far as we’re concerned) as the “Frameable Faces Fairy” and she’s a legend here!  She and her family have become friends of ours over the years (here’s a throwback to a session of Melyssa and her sisters) and she recently brought her THIRD child to the studio – almost-6-month-old Kollyns!  Hard for us to believe!  And Kollyns is such an adorable smush.  We loved having her here and we need to show you these highlights!

Kollyns is adorable

Simple and scrumptious – we’re going to let these photos mostly speak for themselves.

Kollyns

That smile!!!

Kollyns

She’s awesome.  We also have a little fun behind the scenes from Facebook:

And these next two are the end…
Kollyns
Hehe…..
Kollyns
LOVE!  Kollyns is delicious and we hope you enjoyed this little taste of her session!

Alex & Ebony Brought The Whole Crew To The Studio For Family Portraits!

You gotta love when you get a crew that genuinely enjoys being together like these peeps.  Especially when some of them have their own things going on, kids at different levels of school all the way up to college, and indeed this was attempt #2 to get them all in for the session – and it worked!

As for who they are – Alex and I go way back as teammates at Michigan, and he brought his beautiful wife and all the kids here for a memorable afternoon!  Pretty excited to share these so let’s get to it:

Alex, Ebony and the crew!

We’ll start with everyone in a classic black and white look:

Ebony

Stunning group!

We also have some fun behind the scenes from Facebook:

We broke it down into a bunch of different combinations and we’ll share a few of them here – first just the kids:

Ebony

 

Next just the daughters….

Ebony

…and finally just the dudes!

Love the way these turned out and it was so great to have my old buddy here with his family!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with them!

Twin Seniors in Detroit! Next Up: Awesomeness With Austin!

In our last post we highlighted Haley with the promise that her twin brother Austin (who made a cameo in the highlights) would get his turn in the spotlight as the follow up.  So here we are!  We gushed about these two in the last one but a little more gushing might still be in order – you’ll see why since Austin is as photogenic as his twin sister!  What great kids and what a great day this was.  So let’s get to part 2 – awesomeness with Austin!

Awesomeness With Austin

We’ll start with a few pics on Belle Isle for Austin:

Austin

Looking good – awesomeness indeed!

We also have some behind the scenes of Austin and Haley on Belle Isle from Instagram:

So fun!  Here are a couple more of Austin solo – first up close and personal:
 
Austin
A genuine smile on this dude!
 
One more:
 
Austin
We love that one.  As you may know from Haley’s post we headed over to Eastern Market when we started to get a little rain and Austin went a little more formal for that juxtaposition – the fancy with the urban decay and some off camera flash:
 
Austin
So cool!  And we’ll leave you with one more of the twins in this night time black and white that we think turned out quite nicely:
 
And there you have it!  Awesomeness with Austin and this concludes the two part series of our time with the twins – we hope you enjoyed the highlights!

Twin Seniors in Detroit! First Let’s Say Hello To Haley!

Twin seniors are always a lot of fun – that twin bond and interaction makes for a great time and great photos – never fails!  These two in particular are an absolute delight – Haley and Austin are smart, funny, accomplished and beautiful people!  Besides, twins allow us to highlight the day twice because we like to give them their own turn in the spotlight, and we’re going “ladies first” with Haley!  Their mom Ericka actually met us while we were downtown on location in Detroit on a slightly chilly and ultimately surprise rainy day, but we worked it to our advantage – be sure to scroll through this whole post and you’ll see!

Hello To Haley!

Haley

Okay she’s adorable.  This photo was taken at the DIA, and of course we also had the twins pose together for plenty of pics as well – like this one:

Love them!  Be sure not to miss Austin’s own highlights which will be next on the blog!

Now let’s get back to Haley:

Haley

Love that one from Belle Isle and it was actually there where it started to drizzle, so next we headed to Eastern Market to finish up where there is less walking between photos, and we have some fun behind the scenes from over there on Facebook:

And here’s one with Haley against of the really colorful murals as a backdrop:

Haley

This last one which we hinted at before was not a pic we really planned in terms of the rain effect but we think it’s just so cool the way it turned out!
 
Haley
Isn’t that awesome?  As is Haley – she’s awesome too!  We hope you enjoyed PART 1 of the highlights of our day with the twins!

Taking Senior Pictures In Detroit To The Max – With Max!

Taking it to the Max is how we roll here at Frameable Faces.  When you’ve got a Max to take it to the Max with and a city like Detroit to work with?  Well now you’re cooking with oil as they say!!!  Max is a class of 2022 senior at Berkley High School.  Now it may have been just a TAD chilly on this day, but so what?  Max was a trooper and he still kicked butt.  Awesome kid, awesome session and we weren’t surprised – we’ve actually known this family for many years and Max’s mom Jen came along for the day.  We had a blast – the elements were NOT going to prevent us from taking it to the max – with Max!

Taking it to the Max

So let’s get to some highlights starting at Eastern Market:

Max

On top of the world! 

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

We relocated to the DIA at this point and got this classic black and white with the slightly more dressed up look…

Max

Total stud.

More murals downtown up next…

Max

Max being Max.  Love it!

We have some more behind the scenes from a little jaunt over to Belle Isle from Facebook:

And we’ll leave you with one more pic of our guy:

Max

Perfect end to a perfect session – to the MAX!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Kylie Killed It For A Fantastic Fall Senior Session – Like For Real

Ally likes to make fun of me for always saying “So and so KILLED IT” when referring to our seniors.  But guess what?  I. DON’T. CARE.  If they killed it then they killed it!  And Kylie?  SHE KILLED IT.  I actually had a really tough time narrowing down what to highlight for this blog post.  Kylie is a Bloomfield Hills Blackhawk and a swimmer – and such a sweetheart!  Her dad Paul came for the consultation to help plan it and then her mom Whitney came to the session!  Great people!  So let’s get to some highlights:

Kylie Killed It!

 We started in the studio for the yearbook headshot but that was it – everything else was out on location and we got off to a great start with this photo!

Kylie Killed

We have some fun behind the scenes first from Facebook as well:

At this point we headed over to the WB library where we got these:

Kylie Killed

Pure Michigan and a beautiful girl!

We love this one too:

Kylie Killed

One more location to go… here’s the behind the scenes from Instagram:

Aiden Is The Man And His Senior Picture Session (Sham)Rocked!

Aiden came to us by way of his mom Kelly whom we’ve known for many years – I (Doug) worked with Kelly and we were in the M.B.A. program at Wayne State together!  We’ve been friends a long time and it was really cool to hang with her and her son for his senior pics!  Aiden is a Catholic Central Shamrock – a football player and shot put / discus thrower for the track team – just a great kid (not that I’m surprised)!!!  We had a pretty neat game plan for him including some studio work, some FIRE, and some location photos at the CC campus, so let’s get to some highlights!
 

Aiden (Sham)Rocked!

We started in the studio for a formal look on the black background:

Aiden
That’s a good looking dude!
 
Next we decided to get some track and field action and some FIRE!!!  This was the first time we photographed discus fire!
 
Aiden
We also have some behind the scenes fun from this photo on Instagram!

At this point we headed over to Catholic Central and took some pictures at the football field and the campus.  Aiden’s dad Eric stopped by as well (I think to bring the football as I recall)!
 
Aiden
Go Shamrocks!
 
Here’s some behind the scenes at the stadium from Facebook
 

And we’ll leave you with one more of our guy!
 
Aiden
And there you have it!  Aiden’s session (Sham)rocked indeed and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

A Little Fire, A Little Fall Flava With Faris On His Senior Session!

Faris is a legacy with big shoes to fill – his sister Nora‘s portrait has been hanging in the studio for a couple years from her senior session!  But we have to say Faris was totally up for the challenge and created plenty of magic on his own with some FIRE and some FALL FLAVA!  Great kid, great family – we were not surprised in the least.  Mom & Dad Rajaa & Elias are delightful and we have a great time hanging with them.  Now let’s get to some highlights!

Fall Flava & Fire with Faris!

We started on location and we were able to get some cool fall colors – mostly some shades of maize first in the background of the meadow…

Faris

 

Good looking dude!

We also have some fun behind the scenes from that photo on Instagram:

Next up we were able to position our guy with some framed fall colors for some Pure Michigan through the brick – very cool shot!

Faris

 

At this point we headed back to the studio where we went with some sports and some style… First the sports with a little West Bloomfield Laker pride – and the FIRE!!! ⚽️🔥

Faris

 

Here is some more behind the scenes of the fire on Facebook:

Lastly we’ll go with the formal look on the grey paper:

Faris

 

What a stud – what a session!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Faris!

Gettin’ It Done In Detroit With Jake For Senior Pictures!

What a great day we had with Jake – and he’s a legacy – the youngest of three Frameable seniors!  This dude has personality to burn, and he brought plenty of style and fun to the proceedings.  We started in the studio before we took over Detroit…. so let’s get to the highlights!

First we went with the jersey theme – the teams and swag that mean so much to this guy.  Check it out:

Jake

Cool huh?  We also have some fun behind the scenes from this shot on Facebook:

Now it’s time to highlight the time in the city:

Gettin’ It Done in Detroit with Jake!

First we headed to Eastern Market for a few murals:

Jake

Looking good!

Next we got this cool pic of Jake with the Eminem / D12 mural in the background.  So cool…

We headed over to the belt for a few as well and here’s the behind the scenes from that on Instagram:

A Dandy of a Fall Day With Dalia For Senior Pictures!

We had a dandy of a day indeed in Franklin with Dalia and her mom Marla with a Pure Michigan feel!  We love photographing seniors at the Franklin Cider Mill (and eating a few – okay a lot of donuts)!  So let’s get to some highlights!

A Dandy with Dalia

As I mentioned we started at the Franklin Cider Mill so let’s see a couple of those:

Dandy

She’s adorable!

Here would be a good time to give a shout out to Francie Fruitman on Dalia’s makeup!  Great job Francie!  Meanwhile here’s some behind the scenes first from Instagram:

Next it was time to explore a little and we found this patch of leaves on the ground to put Dalia in!  Here’s the behind the scenes from Facebook:

…and the result:

Dandy

Love it!

Okay we’ll leave you with one more in front of a white barn door and this is a fantastic one to end on:

A dandy with Dalia indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!
