Valentine’s Day…….Pancakes and More at The Jagged Fork!

Hey it’s Valentine’s Day this Sunday!!!  And to celebrate we thought we would tease you with some delectable Valentine’s Day delights from our neighbor down the hall The Jagged Fork!  They were actually on the news this week on WMYD Channel 20 Detroit and they needed some photos of their yummy dishes so of course we came running!  Hehe…  Take a look!

Valentine’s Day At The Jagged Fork

Don’t forget too that as of this writing dining in is now allowed with some restrictions in Michigan, so you can eat at The Jagged Fork along with most of your favorite LOCAL eateries!

Jagged Fork

Crepes, French Toast and Pancakes, oh my!!!  With the focus on those seduction crepes in the photo above!

Let’s give each dish their close up shall we?

Let These Recent Seniors With Family Members Make You Smile!

Through it all – through this challenging school year we still had a fantastic “part 1” of the Class of 2021 senior pictures!  We say “part 1” because there are always a few spring seniors and we figure there may be a few more than usual this year (fingers crossed) because 2020 was……..2020. 

Generally when we post highlights of our sessions we focus on the senior but we do have family add-ons available and sometimes family members – maybe just a sib or a parent or a pet jumps in, so we thought we’d gather a handful of these and give them their own blog post!  Lots of love in these images!!!

Seniors have Frameable Family Members!

No commentary – just family!  We LOVE these peeps!

Family Members Family Members Family Members

And there you have it!  Wonderful families we’ve enjoyed spending time with over the past year!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights!

Ellie Elevates Her Game On Her Fab Fall Senior Session!

Ellie elevates her game in the following photographs – like, they’re awesome, and SHE’S awesome.  We love this girl who has represented our studio as a spokesmodel this year at North Farmington High School (our beloved alma mater) for the class of 2021!  We’ve known this fam for decades and we’ve loved photographing Ellie – she’s full of personality, smart, adorable and she’s just fun.  Both of her parents Jeff and Kari joined us at Mill Race Historical Village in Northville on a beautiful Fall afternoon and the results are awesome.  Let’s get to a few of them shall we?

Ellie Elevates

Mill Race is one of our new favorite places to photograph since we got the permit to shoot there this year and Ellie brought her A-Game.  A shout out also goes to Caroline at Mandy Rose Studio for makeup!

Ellie Elevates

Okay she looks gorgeous.  And part of the point was the Fall colors for the Pure Michigan feel which we got plenty of, but purples and pinks look fantastic in that one!  We have some behind the scenes fun too first from Facebook:

 

Here’s a couple more from the village:

A beautiful flower in the flowers!

Now we get into the Fall feels….

Love it.  We also have some more behind the scenes this time from Instagram:

We Were Captivated By Clare On Her Class of 2021 Senior Session!

Being captivated by Clare is a great shot in the arm – spending time with this girl and her delightful mom Nicole on a perfect day taking pictures is just the ticket and we loved it – the results speak for themselves!  Clare is a rising senior at Mercy High School and an athlete to boot.  We went to Birmingham for these photos and we are so happy to present these highlights!

Captivated By Clare!

Let’s get to some highlights at Quarton Lake!

Captivated By Clare

LOVE!!!  Let’s also give a shout out to Caroline at Mandy Rose Studio for the awesome job on Clare’s makeup! 

We also have some fun behind the scenes from the day first from Facebook:

Here’s another one from Quarton Lake – Clare is stunning in red!

At this point we headed into downtown and Clare broke out the varsity letter jacket!

It’s Time For The Class of 2021 Spokesmodel Panorama…..RAMA!!!

YES it’s time for the Class of 2021 Spokesmodel Panorama…..RAMA!!!  This is our fourth annual post like this, and while these are NOT professional photos, they are a fun behind the scenes way of representing what we’ve been up to with our new crew in panoramic style!  I took these (Doug – not Ally) with my iPhone XR and we love to stack ’em up and give them their own blog post!  This year has clearly been a strange one to say the least, and we have a smaller but still amazing crew representing the rising class of 2021!  The first couple we did before the lockdown and the next four we’ve completed since we reopened.  And what a great crew we have this year….

Mad About Maddie – Class of 2021 Version! Spokesmodel highlights!

This is the second year in a row we’ve had a spokesmodel named Maddie and we may have to just start recruiting Maddies as a strategy.  They seem to be pretty awesome as a category.  This Maddie is no exception – outgoing with a ton of personality and just a sweetheart!  We’ve photographed her cousins in the past so there is some connection there, her mom Stephanie is a delight, and we’re thrilled to have her representing the Farmington Hills Mercy Marlins for the class of 2021!
 

Mad About Maddie

 
We actually started out at Maddie’s house and we had a lovely day for pictures!
 
About Maddie
Gorgeous right?  Love the lake photos…
 
Here’s another one from the home front:
 
About Maddie
Okay she’s adorable.  Maddie is into theater so she definitely has that presence!
 
At this point it was time to head outside and hit one of our favorite locations by Orchard Lake, and we have some fun behind the scenes first from Facebook Live:
 

Back to a couple more pics – how about this close up at Orchard Lake?
 
About Maddie
Love that one!  And we have a little more behind the scenes too this time from Instagram TV!

Alexandra Made Her Debut To The World At The Studio!

We have had a little run on newborns this year already, and we are looking forward to seeing them again safely for their 6 month sessions!  We fell in love with Kim the first time we met her at the studio and her hubby Adam whom we met when Kim returned with him and new addition Alexandra is a great guy too!  We really enjoyed having them at the studio for these wonderful newborn portraits!  We hope the highlights of the day Alexandra made her debut bring a smile to your face like they do ours!

Ellie Elicits Extreme Enjoyment on Her Spokesmodel Session!

We had a wonderful time – extreme enjoyment you might say a few weeks ago with Ellie for her spokesmodel session for the class of 2021!  We are pleased to share these highlights during times of stress as we continue to prepare for the upcoming senior class, and Ellie is representing our studio for North Farmington High School – our alma mater! 
 
Meanwhile we go way back with Ellie’s family – Doug went to Michigan with Ellie’s mom Kari and she joined us for the session which we did mostly in the studio, but we did manage to get outside for a bit even though it was just slightly chilly…  hehe.  So let’s get to some highlights!
 

Extreme Enjoyment With Ellie

 
You’ll see for yourself how delightful Ellie is in the behind the scenes stuff, and we’ll get to the photo highlights in a bit, but first we have an added element to this session that we are playing with to start offering this summer…
 
Susan Adams is a fantastic local photographer whom we have admired for a few years now.  She specializes in sports and she has captured some great images of our son Tony as the photographer for Bloomfield Hills Schools.  We are looking to bring Susan and her talents on board for yes – sports (more on that in the future), but also for an idea we had for professional behind-the-scenes storytelling through photos of the day with our seniors!  As you know Doug documents plenty of behind the scenes fun during our sessions with livestreaming and more on Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram and TikTok with his iPhone.  But senior photos are really an event for our peeps and this could be a great option for those who want to include it in their experience.  With Ellie, Susan met up with her while she was having her makeup done by Class of 2011 Frameable Faces Senior Gabby Zilberberg!  We love when things like this happen!  She also came over to the studio to grab a few photos as well, so we’ll start with Susan’s pics:
 

Getting started…

Great stuff right? 

Now let’s get to the sneak peeks from the session!

We started off with a little pink on pink.  Love this sweater on this background – just adorable!
 
Extreme Enjoyment
And here is some fun behind the scenes from Facebook – should bring you a smile or two!
 

From there we moved to a wooden backdrop that we love:
 
Extreme Enjoyment
Love that with the cute denim – perfect combo.
 
Next we got into our go-to black fabric…
 
Extreme Enjoyment
Gorgeous – her hair is awesome.
 
Oh and here’s a little TikTok silliness…
 
@frameablefacesBehind the scenes ##seniorpictures ##classof2021 ##metrodetroit @d1ellie Photographer, Director, SPOKESMODEL! Everybody Vogue! 😛♬ Vogue – Madonna

At this point it was time to get a few pics outdoors.  And actually it was toasty warm!  Okay maybe not, but we told Ellie to pretend it was…  hehe…
 
Here’s some behind the scenes from outside that we streamed on Instagram:
 

And we’ll leave you with this one photo from on location.  So pretty!!!
 
Extreme Enjoyment
And there you have it!  Extreme enjoyment with Ellie indeed!  We are looking forward to bringing you more photos of these awesome young peeps and we look towards the summer for senior pictures!
 
Meanwhile, looking for some fun?  A diversion?  Check out our podcast – all the links are below and we actually talked about Ellie’s session a bit on episode 8!
