No Comments

Yes this was a purely great session – some Pure Michigan Fall colors, plenty of pure awesome and pure Hannah – the latest Frameable Class of 2017 senior!  Now we actually did a combination of photos in the studio which are great for any season as well as some on location and we found one perfect brilliant red and orange fall tree that we’ll get to in a bit…

Pure Hannah

Meanwhile Hannah is a sweetheart and a friend of our daughter Lacey so we knew this would be a great session and it certainly was!  Hannah’s mom Shari joined us and she and Ally have known each other forever so we had plenty of fun!  Let’s start in the studio on the black background…

Pure Hannah

Beautiful!

We also have some behind the scenes fun here – first with the replay of our live Periscope broadcast from the studio and you can join us and be a part of future broadcasts by downloading the app and following us at @FrameableFaces at this link, or you can just watch from Twitter here.

Moving on to our next studio setup for one more before we head outside:

Pure Hannah

Love that background with the ripped jeans!

Now it’s time to head outside!  First on the West Bloomfield Trail Network where we were able to find a really pretty red and orange tree – here’s the broadcast from this portion of the session this time from Facebook Live:

And here’s the result!

Pure Hannah

How great is that?  Love the maroon to go with the reds and oranges too!  We explored a little and went over to a nearby nature preserve as well where we did one more broadcast on Periscope:

And here is the final sneak peek for now – fittingly a photo of just pure Hannah!

And there you have it!  Pure Michigan, Pure Hannah, Pure Awesome!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day!

Bruw-ing A Stellar Senior Session With Max-imum Results!

by
No Comments

So of course this title is a play on words right?  Well it’s because this stellar senior session features Max and he’s been here in the studio before….with his coffee beans and his cold BRUW filter which is his very own company!  This enterprising young entrepreneur is getting it done and you can check out his website along with a few photos by US at www.bruw.net!

Stellar Senior Session…

But here we need to get to the task at hand and that’s the highlights from Max’s stellar senior session!  Max’s mom Susan accompanied us and even his dad Dave came by for a bit on location!  We started out in the studio so let’s begin there with a formal shot of our guy on the grey paper background:

Stellar Senior Session

Niiiiice!

We also have some behind the scenes fun for you first with the replay of our live Periscope broadcast in the studio.  If you want to be a part of our shows there you can download the app and tune in at @FrameableFaces at this link, and if you just want to watch from twitter you can do that here.

Now it’s time to head outside where…

Fall colors were a-BRUW-in’

Yes they were!  Plenty of great spots to shoot right in and around West Bloomfield and that’s just where we stayed!  The first shot features more brick than oranges or reds but it’s cool!  Just Max chillin’

Stellar Senior Session

The next photo is a bit unique in that we don’t think we’ve used this chair on location before – it’s a neat photo with some of that “Pure Michigan” color in the background!  Here’s the behind the scenes of the shot from Facebook Live…

…and the result!

Stellar Senior Session

Pretty nice!

One more Periscope replay for good measure (we were having a lot of fun)….  lol!

And one last photo of Max – and just as the rain started to fall too…. good timing!

Stellar Senior Session

And there it is!  We BRUWed a stellar senior session with Max for sure, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Caitlin (and Patrick) On A Perfect October Day For Senior Photos!

by
No Comments

So this is indeed the story of Caitlin’s senior session which took place on a perfect October day in Birmingham, Michigan!  But Patrick was a welcome addition and companion and he helped make the session even more fun!  Patrick is a girl’s best friend – a young Collie with plenty of energy, and he posed quite nicely for a couple of shots!

Meanwhile we enjoy Caitlin a lot and her mom Deborah is a delight too!  We had plenty of fun and laughs on this bright sunny and warm day!  Actually the warm weather lasted much longer than usual this year and that made for more days like this deeper into senior season than you can usually expect…  Besides, Caitlin’s session was almost all on location so we got to enjoy a beautiful day.

Caitlin (and Patrick)…

Let’s start with the girl and her pup:

Perfect October Day

So fun!!!

Here’s the replay of the live Periscope broadcast from this part of the session.  If you want to be a part of our broadcasts in the future you can download the app and follow us at @FrameableFaces here, or you can just watch from Twitter!

Next we moved over to a couple of our fave spots to focus on the girl with the awesome red hair for the rest of the session…

Perfect October Day

Perfect October Day

Ooooh that backlight though!

We went live for another Periscope broadcast while we were at it too…

….and time for another outfit change!

Perfect October Day

We took to Facebook Live as well for some more behind the scenes fun as we moved into downtown Birmingham – check it out!

We’ll leave you with this last photo from the city…  love the lamp post shot!

Perfect October Day

And there you have it – a perfect October day with a fantastic girl!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Haven Is A Fashion Maven Which She Proved On Her Senior Session!

by
No Comments

Haven is indeed a fashion maven and she proved it on her senior session.  Let me explain:

Fashion Maven

Some posts just write themselves….  We’ve had awesome style and fashion from our seniors this year and with Haven we were not surprised – she has represented our studio for the class of 2017 as a spokesmodel (just like her sister Jubilee did) and we love this girl!  I thought it might be fun to rhyme Haven with maven and when I punched it into a Google search “fashion mavens” showed up right in the definition.  Done deal!

Haven Is A Fashion Maven…

So we started this session with the always fashionable cheer uniform – ha, and I don’t mean that sarcastically at all.  Haven actually had some great stuff in store for the location part of the shoot, but as for the studio we love us some purple, black and silver when it comes to those Bloomfield Hills Blackhawks!!!  Whoo hooo!!!

Fashion Maven

And while we’re here in the studio here is the replay of our live Periscope behind the scenes broadcast!  If you want to follow us from your smartphone and be a part of the shows in the live chat you can do that here, or if you just want to watch from twitter you can do that here.

Next we’ll head out on location and check out this next photo – Ally was particularly impressed with the accessorizing, the boots, the whole thing!

Fashion Maven

We have another fun Periscope broadcast from the location too – here ya go…

Here’s where we found out how strong Haven’s hashtag game is…haha – well, we’ll just let the picture tell the story….

Fashion Maven

How great is that top?  Haven walked out with the #slay on and we knew she meant business!  Love it!

Here’s the Facebook Live broadcast from that moment!

We’ll leave you with one more fabulous photo from the day…

Fashion Maven

Spectacular!  We had such a great day with Haven our fashion maven and we hope you enjoyed the highlights from our day with her!

Transformation Tuesday Senior Session Post Starring Ian!

by
No Comments

So this isn’t exactly the traditional Transformation Tuesday type of thing you might be used to when you see a Transformation Tuesday.  But it happens to be Tuesday as I’m writing this, and we saw our own transformation starring Ian, so I’m going with it.  The fact of the matter is when Ian came in for his consultation he seemed relatively shy and quiet.  Granted he didn’t know us and might not have been completely sure of what he was getting into with senior pictures, so it’s totally understandable.  But when we tell you that the guy who showed up for the photo shoot didn’t seem like the same dude we’re not kidding.  A self assured ready-to-roll stud showed up that day and he kicked ass.  Sorry (not sorry) for the pseudo profanity but that’s the only way to accurately describe it.

Starring Ian…

So let’s get to the photos which include some studio work as well as some on location – studio first.

Starring Ian

So, not to be cheesy but seriously – you can see it in his eyes.  Confidence.

And now how about a little behind the scenes fun?  First with our little 6 second vine overview…

And here we have the replay of our live Periscope broadcast from the studio.  If you aren’t following us on Periscope and would like to tune in and be a part of the show in the live chat you can do it here, and if you just want to watch from twitter you can do that here!

And here’s another studio photo for you this time in black and white…

Starring Ian

Heading Out…

At this point we headed out to our location portion of the session and we dodged a couple raindrops but it was all good.  We’ll start with this cool photo on the West Bloomfield trail network:

Starring Ian

Ian is rockin’ it as you can see…

We also have another Periscope replay from on location:

And we’ll finish with one more close up photo of our guy:

Starring Ian

So there it is – you didn’t see the “transformation” part but we did and it was really cool.  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day starring Ian!

Like An Expressive Melody, This Aria Is Aptly Named!

by
No Comments

According to Wikipedia, an aria started out originally as any expressive melody usually performed by a singer.  In a culture where our names don’t always mean something (as famously pointed out by Butch in Pulp Fiction) this is a case where it does and it works for this girl!  She is a sweetheart who has been a friend of our Lacey’s since they were toddlers!  She’s bright, beautiful and nice – like an expressive melody indeed!  As one of our spokesmodels for the class of 2017 this is the second time we’ve been able to get out on location and photograph her this year alone, but she’s been in front of Ally’s camera several times over the years!  With her mom (and our friend) Rachel along for the ride, it was another fun and epic day!

Aria Is Aptly Named…

This session was almost exclusively on location and our Aria was prepared with makeup done by Mandy Rose from Mandy Rose Studio – little shout out here to Mandy as she does amazing work!  Aria was stylin’ too and with that said we should get to a few of the photos…

Aria

Beautiful!

Now let’s mix in some behind the scenes fun from the day, first with our 6 second looping vine:

And now let’s see one of the replays of the live Periscope broadcasts from the session!  If you aren’t following us on Periscope you can do it and be a part of our broadcasts in the live chat here, or you can just watch on twitter here.

We also did a quick Facebook Live broadcast while we were at Heritage Park too – take a look:

….and here’s a fun photo from the blue door in the broadcast above!

Aria

Love that one…!

At this point we changed locations to head over to Birmingham to get a few city shots.  Here’s a cool one in the alleyway:

Aria We also broadcasted one more time for some more behind the scenes fun in Birmingham on Periscope!

As we near the end of the story we’ll leave you with one more of Aria on the stairway – step by step we know she’ll be smiling the whole way!

Aria

And there you have it!  Aria is truly a melody of a girl and she’s aptly named for sure!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Move Over Kerri Walsh Jennings – Here Comes Kayla and She’s On Fire!

by
No Comments

Okay so maybe Kerri Walsh Jennings doesn’t have to “move over” per se….  After all she may be the greatest beach volleyball player of all time, but we don’t know Kerri Walsh Jennings personally and Kayla is a volleyball player we do know!  So with all due respect to Kerri, here comes Kayla and we are choosing to focus on her!  We spent a morning with her and her mom Dawn recently for senior pictures and it was a truly memorable experience!  And yes, this girl was “on fire” – but we’ll get to that in a little bit…  haha!

Here Comes Kayla…

With Kayla we had a game plan that included some studio work and some on location shooting in Birmingham.  We started on location as we tend to do for morning sessions when the sun is lower in the sky, and the conditions were perfect!

Here comes Kayla

Love it!

Let’s break for a little behind the scenes fun from the shoot shall we?  Let’s switch it up from the usual and start with a replay from the live Periscope broadcast from Quarton Lake!  If you want to be a part of our live broadcasts by joining and chatting live follow us at @frameablefaces here, or just watch us on twitter here.

Here’s one more photo on location for you before we head back to the studio:

Here comes Kayla

How about that backlight on her hair?  Gorgeous!

Now here’s our looping Vine that sums up the day in 6 seconds….

Next we’ll focus on the studio photos which you saw a glimpse of in the vine…

We focused mostly on the black background – love this one….

Here comes Kayla

And now here is the studio Periscope replay…

And as an added bonus we even did a little live video on Facebook!

Now it’s time to get to the coup de grace!  Remember when we said Kayla was “on fire”?  Remember when we told Kerri Walsh Jennings to move over?  This is the shot we were talking about….  Kayla rocking the Falcon gear with a fiery volleyball!

Here comes Kayla

Love that!  And there you have it!  Kayla had a fabulous session and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our morning with her!!!
