No Comments
Turning Eighty Is Great-y indeed!  Lynda is so cute and to be here at the studio surrounded by family on the occasion of her 80th is such a special thing.  We had a great session with them and we captured each family unit, group shots – the whole enchilada and here are the highlights!
 

Turning Eighty Is Great-y

We started with the whole group and we put the queen in the chair we call “the throne” lol!

Turning Eighty
What a great crew!
 
Next we broke up into the family units for a few:
 
Love them – we’ve actually known them for years.  Our kids have gone through school with Steve and Julie’s son Jordan!
 
…and now the other sib’s crew
 
What a fine family!
 
We also have a little highlight video from TikTok!

Wrapping Up The Class Of 2022 Spokesmodel Sessions With Maya!

by
No Comments

We’ve had a wonderful time photographing our newest crew of spokesmodels – the class of 2022!  And Maya is a great rising senior to finish with because she’s a NORTH FARMINGTON RAIDER!  You know we’re Raiders so we always have a soft spot for those who wear the brown and gold!  Ally has known Maya’s mom Melissa for years and we’re thrilled to have them on board!  We bounced around West Bloomfield to get some pics of Maya and here are a few highlights!

Wrapping Things Up With Maya

We started out at a fave spot of ours from the past that we hadn’t been to in a minute, and we found these pretty purple flowers to surround our girl:

Maya

LOVE IT!

We also have behind the scenes fun from the session first from Facebook:

One more from this spot with the barn in the background…

Maya

Gorgeous!

At this point we changed locations – our seniors can change outfits and locations multiple times during our 3 hour sessions.

Maya

And here’s one more on one of our local trails in the WB!

Maya

Here’s a little bonus fun at North Farmington – we will return there when Maya returns for her senior session, but we planned to go to Holland Field since she was just named to the Division 1 all-district team as the goalie and is currently the #1 ranked goalie in her league (she was actually a little sore from her last game on this session but you’d never know it), but there was a big event going on…. so we went to the front of the school to snap a few and here is the livestream from Instagram!

And there you have it!  A splendid way to wrap up the spokesmodel sessions – we are so thankful to have such a great crew of kids to represent our studio for the class of 2022!  Senior sessions will be coming your way soon on the blog and you should definitely book yours now!

Saving The Best For Last? Leah Puts The Icing On The Class of 2021 Cake!

by
No Comments

There is always the possibility that we could still have another class of 2021 senior come along, but we think this is the final one, and Leah is the perfect senior to put the icing on the proverbial 2021 cake!  She was the first spokesmodel we photographed after we came out of the initial lockdown last year, so it seems fitting that she returns to put an exclamation point on the class!  We’ve known Leah and her family forever and they were actually one of the very early posts on this blog 13 years ago!  We’ve all come a long way lol…

Leah Puts The Icing on the Class of 2021 Cake!

Meanwhile we headed to Birmingham with Leah and her awesome mom Emma on a breezy day to make some more magic:

Leah

We will always love the fire escape pic and Leah rocked it.

We also have some behind the scenes first from Facebook:

Okay so we’re going to SLIGHTLY throw Leah under the bus here:  She was not sold on this pose.  Ally kinda cajoled her a bit we’ll say, and lo and behold – it’s AWESOME.  And Leah LOVES it.  Hehe…

Leah

Right?

Okay next we put Leah in the barrel.  We love this spot and we have some more behind the scenes this time from Instagram:

Leah

We’ll leave you with one more, and this one is a STUNNER.

Leah

Great one to finish on, and if this is the last photo of the 2021 class we’ll move on with a smile on our face.  This class went through plenty of adversity and from our experience they didn’t let it deter them.  This photo says it all for us.  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Leah!

Sammy Cooks Up Some Killer Pics For His Spokesmodel Session!

by
No Comments

Obvi with that title amirite?  Yep – Sammy is a talented dude – he tore it up on Master Chef Junior a few years back and it’s pretty nice to have a great chef in the family – we know because he’s our nephew!  Obviously he’s been on our blog before like this post of the highlights of his bar mitzvah, and of course we are delighted to have him representing our studio for Berkley High School for the class of 2022 and this is one of those surreal sessions for us to see him as a rising high school senior!

Sammy Cooks Up Some Killer Pics

We went with Sammy to Detroit and of course his mom Stacy joined us – we went to Eastern Market where you can get all the ingredients you need!

Sammy Cooks

Plenty of great murals down there!

We also have some behind the scenes for you first from Facebook Live:

Let’s take a look at one more of the man on a mural… 

Sammy Cooks

At this point Sam’s future was getting so bright he had to wear shades.

Sammy Cooks

From there we headed over to Belle Isle and as it turned out we were pretty limited because they were setting up for the Grand Prix, but when you’re forced to explore a little you find a new spot like this one – here’s the behind the scenes from Instagram this time:

So there you have it!  What a stud, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!  Time to get on the schedule for your senior pics – it’s June and we are starting to book sessions….!

Professional Headshots with Neighbors Kane Mostyn Insurance Agency!

by
No Comments

We are taking a slightly different approach with this blog post!  Here’s the background:

Ben Clevenger of Kane Mostyn Insurance Agency Googled photographers in the neighborhood and gave us a call – they are located right around the corner from the studio at 5777 W Maple Road, Suite 185 and they were launching a new website in the near future, so they needed updated photos of the team.  They hired us and they were a pleasure to work with!  As we got to talking about refreshing their online presence and their image we naturally got to talking about social media strategy and we are pleased to announce they are now also the newest client of M10 Social! 

Now normally when we share examples of our work we post a few right here on the blog, but in this case we aren’t going to do that.  First we’re sharing the behind the scenes TikTok we put together…. (please follow us there).

@frameablefaces#professionalheadshots with Kane Mostyn Insurance! 🙂📷 See them at kmiagency.net! #frameablefaces #Insurance #MetroDetroit #Photoshoot #Photographer♬ Business (55 seconds) – TimTaj

We also have some fun behind the scenes with Ben himself from Facebook:

We love the use of this one that we screenshotted from LinkedIn – you can see they got really nice feedback on it!

Kane Mostyn Insurance Agency

Now, we would indeed love to show you more of the photos, so here is the link to the “Meet The Team” tab and you can see how they look on their website which just launched!  

Be sure to follow them on Facebook and LinkedIn and look for some fun new content including an interview series with Doug, Ben, Michael Mostyn and Larry Silver that currently has the working title of “Insurance Hacks”!

Sasha Slays It On Her Class Of 2022 Spokesmodel Session!

by
No Comments

Sasha slays the game like no one’s business on this spokesmodel session in Pontiac, and this was one of those unique days you just can’t plan for – we’ll get to that in a minute.  In the meantime let’s talk about Sasha.  She’s a spokesmodel for us at Frankel Jewish Academy for the class of 2022 and this girl has style!  She and her mom Kristine joined us on a perfect and slightly breezy day and we think you’ll enjoy these highlights!

Sasha Slays

It seems every time we go to Pontiac there is something different to see, new murals, new decorations, new art and in this case a new look for an old location that we stumbled upon.  Let’s get to the photos:

Sasha Slays

Stunning!  That trellis was not there last time either…

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

…and one more outdoors:

Sasha Slays

What a perfect mural for Sasha – that saying seems to describe her to a tee.

At this point the session took a turn for the awesome…  we were taking a photo on the steps of a building we’d been inside of back in 2012 – we hadn’t been back in quite a long time and a guy peeked his head out of the doorway and asked if we wanted to come inside and check the place out.  It’s the newly reimagined Lawrence Street Project and it’s as cool as we remembered it – with a stage, lights and equipment for live concerts and parties.  You can rent it out and they have a new Facebook page – we highly recommend you check it out!  We did the rest of Sasha’s session in there… and it was so cool!  Here’s some behind the scenes from Instagram Live:

Such a cool stairway…and Sasha looks beautiful!  Love the hat – love accessories in general.  We always encourage our seniors to bring bring bring – and to be themselves!

We’ll leave you with this one on this cool chaise upstairs:

Sasha Slays

Love.  And there you have it – when Sasha slays like this again we’ll have another round on the blog from her senior session!  We can’t wait, and you should book your session now!

Spokesmodeling With Sydney For The Class Of 2022!

by
No Comments

Sydney is our latest spokesmodel for the class of 2022!  She’s a legacy here – the younger sis of Jeremy who had an epic senior session a couple years ago, and she’s a survivor – a real survivor (more on that to come this summer) – an inspiring and beautiful young lady!  We’re honored to have her representing our studio and we had a fun and fabulous day outdoors with parents Stacy & Jason!  Let’s get to some highlights shall we?

Spokesmodeling with Sydney!

All the highlights here are outdoors in West Bloomfield, but our seniors have the option for photographs in the studio as well as on location for their sessions!

Sydney

That’s Sydney at the WB library – we use that location a lot!  Just chillin’ and being cute!

Next we headed over to one of our favorite nature preserves…

Sydney

Adorable! 

We also have some fun behind the scenes from this one from Facebook Live:

Wardrobe!  Time for an outfit change…

Sydney

We knew that would be a winner when we took it – the dress, the log, the flowers, and Sydney looks so pretty!!!  We also have more behind the scenes with this outfit from Instagram Live:

Loving Lindsey in This All Studio Class of 2022 Spokesmodel Session!

by
No Comments

Okay Lindsey is adorable.  Full of smiles and personality and she’s representing our studio for the class of 2022 at Bloomfield Hills High School!  We’ve known her family for many years and we had a blast with her in this all-studio spokesmodel session that included the first time with a new backdrop!

Loving Lindsey

Lindsey and her mom Stacy arrived with plenty of style in their suitcase, and it’s actually not uncommon to do entire senior sessions in the studio – we offer all studio, all location, or a combination of both – you can do just about whatever you want with your 3 hours!  Let’s take a look at a few highlights starting with the “black and blowy”!

Loving Lindsey

LOVE!  We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Facebook Live including a little telemarketing madness right in the middle of the session…. lol!

Next we broke out the pink and Lindsey changed outfits – our seniors can change their outfits as many times as they like.

Loving Lindsey

So cute!

Next we went with a green/gold backdrop we’ve never used before and we love the way this came out:

Loving Lindsey

That pink dress just pops off of that backdrop!  We also have some behind the scenes from this one on Instagram Live:

Going Bree – Yond With a Two Part Senior Session Spectacular!

by
No Comments

Bree is one of those seniors who is mature beyond her years – this graduating senior from Farmington Central is a girl who knows what she wants and had plenty of ideas for her session which always impresses us!  Her parents are a delight – both Jackie and Trent – they’re very cool and we’ve laughed plenty with them throughout this!  

Bree – Yond Beautiful

Bree wanted two different looks on two different days and she was out in front of the Spring senior rush we get every year so we had the flexibility to do it – and both days were in the studio so let’s start with “straight hair day”!

Bree

Pretty in pink!

Next Bree changed into the grey suit – nice look!

Bree

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

Day 2

Time for the braids (and Myla the pup)!

Bree

Haha!  We LOVE when seniors bring a pet to the studio.

And here we have a little more behind the scenes fun this time from Instagram Live!
