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:

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:

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!

Gettin’ All Municipal With Michael In Pontiac For Senior Pictures!

by
No Comments

Gotta take a second to pat myself on the back for my alliterative title here for the day we got municipal with Michael! We dig the urban shots in Pontiac and we had a good time getting edgy with this dude. Michael is another senior we’ve known for a while since he and our Tony have been going to school together for years so we were looking forward to this one!

Gettin’ Municipal With Michael

We headed to Pontiac which is what Michael chose for the fun edgy city images.  We had a great time, talked some football and we got some great stuff, starting with one of our fave looks – the fire escape…

 Municipal

Lookin’ good!

We also played around with some graffiti and murals and some live streaming for the behind the scenes fun – first with Facebook Live:

We did a little exploring and this photo is pretty cool with the reflection in the glass of our guy:

Municipal

Here’s another outfit change with a little ASU style in the black and white…

Municipal

So COOL.

We also have another behind the scenes replay for you this time from the Instagram LIVE:

And we’ll leave you with one more:

Municipal

Good stuff!

Rock on – we got municipal with Michael and the results are killer.  We hope you enjoy the results of our day with him!

Charity Channels Her Inner Charm For Her Champion Senior Session!

by
No Comments

Inner charm, outer beauty, inner beauty, outer charm – all of it – Charity channels it!  Charity is another North Farmington Raider which is always a bonus for us as fellow Raider alums and we had a fantastic session with her!  Charity had to be a champ because it was chilly out – really chilly (how many words can Doug squeeze into this blog post that begin with “ch”?).  But she stuck it out and delivered some pure awesomeness in Pontiac for some city shots before we made it back to the warm confines of the studio…  Let’s get to it!

Charity Channels Her Inner Charm…

Charity is a sweetie and a dancer too so she’s got a lot going for her.  Her mom Caren joined us as we headed out on location.  First we have this photo on the fire escape…

Charity Channels

Love this because her outfit blends right in with the colors around her for one thing, and she just looks happy and great all the way around.  We actually have plenty of behind the scenes to share as well, and we’ll start with the replay of the Periscope live broadcast.  You can download the app and be part of the fun at @FrameableFaces at this link or you can also just watch from twitter here.

I have to mention that there is an amazing moment on this broadcast where Caren got very emotional watching her girl have her senior pictures taken and like a reporter I took a risk and ran over to catch it and ask her how she was doing – it was a good cry and so sweet!  Caren was great sport about it too!

Awww…..

At this point we relocated for a wardrobe change to another spot on a different set of steps and had some great backlight going for this one.

Charity Channels

That lighting and that smile!

You would never know we were pretty cold by the results…. and at this point it was time to get back to the studio.

First we have a close up of our girl on the red paper backdrop which is one of our faves for sure.

Charity Channels

We also have more behind the scenes fun this time from the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast!

Here’s a dramatic black and white version of our “black and blowy” setup that we are in love with…

Charity Channels

And we’ll end it with the Snapchat story we posted that day – you should be following us there too!  Snap us back!

So there you have it!  When Charity channels her inner charm it comes through with wonderful outer results!  We hope you enjoyed our highlights from our day with her!

Hair Jordan! As In Her Hair Is Amazing And So Is She!

by
No Comments

This blog title wrote itself – it’s impossible to look at a photo of Jordan and not be struck by her amazing hair so I had to do it.  You’ve heard of Air Jordan I’m sure – the brand is supposed to represent excellence right?  So “Hair Jordan” is certainly a good thing!  And the rest of her is pretty awesome too – we were impressed with this girl from the first time she came to the studio for her consultation with her mom Julia.  Just a cool confident teen and we look forward to the heights she’ll scale in the future.

Hair Jordan!  🙂

Meanwhile we are excited to present these photos from the studio and our urban excursion into downtown Pontiac.  This session was killer and Jordan’s mom and little bro both came with!  We started out in the studio so let’s take a look at a couple of those:

Hair Jordan

Okay – loving it all – Jordan’s skin tone and hair with the red couch against the red background?  Amazing!

We also have some fun behind the scenes of the session for you starting with the replay of our live Periscope broadcast from the studio where we were making the above photo.  If you don’t have the app yet you can download it and follow us at @FrameableFaces at this link or if you just want to watch from Twitter you can do that here.

Okay one more from the studio with a wardrobe and background change to the black fabric…

Hair Jordan

Fantastic…

At this point we headed to Pontiac to get some city photos – half painted walls, underneath parking garages – we love this stuff….  

Hair Jordan

Here is a little more behind the scenes action – this time from Pontiac on Facebook Live!

And one more from the city!  I actually spotted this wall.  We’ve really closed this fall out strong with our seniors from the standpoint of finding bunches of new spots!  We had never seen this wall before and it will now be “Jordan’s Wall” because that’s how we roll.

Hair Jordan

Wow – in love with Jordan’s session!!!!  “Hair Jordan” indeed!  That’s all we have for now – we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Blake Is A Bad Dude And He Brought It On His Senior Photo Session!

by
No Comments

Blake is a bad dude and what a senior session we had with him!  As for him being a bad dude let me explain…  We’ve known Blake and his mom for a bit and our son Tony actually was on the swimming team with Blake in middle school – even back then Blake was blowing people out of the pool.  He’s a heck of an athlete.  But part of being a bad dude is also being nice to your mom and Blake appears to have a great relationship with his mom Carol who joined us.  He’s just a mild mannered enjoyable guy to be around!  He plays guitar too so he is really well rounded.  Overall those are the things that make him a bad dude!

First to Pontiac…

Blake was really prepared with the style – Ally loves pink shirts on guys and he had his letter jacket, a formal look, and his guitar too.  We had a great game plan to head to Pontiac and get some edgy shots and that’s what we did first so we will start there:

Bad Dude Blake

Self assured and cool!

Next we have a nice one in the letter jacket.

Bad Dude Blake

Before we get to a couple more let’s see some of the behind the scenes from the day.  First with our 6 second looping vine which includes Blake playing a couple chords from “All Along The Watchtower” in front of a huge Jimi Hendrix canvas!

So cool!

Next we have the extended replays of our Periscope broadcasts.  You can join in our broadcasts in the app at @frameablefaces at this link or you can watch them live on twitter as well.

First in Pontiac:

Next as we head back indoors here is the broadcast from the Frameable Faces studio!

Bad Dude Blake

Here are a couple of studio photos – they are awesome.

Bad Dude Blake

GQ all the way…

And lastly here’s a little boyish charm in the pink!

Bad Dude Blake

So there it is – Blake is a bad dude indeed and we hope you enjoyed our highlights of our day with him!
