Highlights From A Total Knockout Senior Session With Noah!

by
No Comments

Noah is a bad dude – for multiple reasons.  1) He has a great relationship with his mom Michelle who came with us on his senior session.  We think that’s bad ass.  2) He’s a North Farmington Raider – always a sure sign.  3)  He’s a mixed martial artist!  Anyone who doesn’t mind getting punched in the face and is willing to battle in the ring has to be tough, and that’s ultimately what made his session a total knockout!  You’ll see what we mean in a bit…

A Total Knockout Session

Noah’s session was in the morning so we started on location so we could get the sun low in the sky and that’s where we’ll start with this cool shot in a nice natural setting:

Total Knockout

Kinda nice that you can even see a few highlights of fall colors starting to show…

We also have some fun behind the scenes action for you first from the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:

And here’s one more shot from outside:

Total Knockout

Good lookin’ dude!

At this point we headed back to the studio for the rough stuff….hehe

Total Knockout

Whoa – I would NOT mess with this guy…

Here’s some more behind the scenes from the studio this time from the replay of the YouTube Live broadcast!

And one more classic full length shot again in black and white:

Total Knockout

So cool.  Yep – the session was a total knockout indeed and now you can see why!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Noah!

In The Eden Of Orchard Lake For Senior Pictures….With Eden!

by
No Comments

One of the definitions of an Eden is a place of pristine or abundant natural beauty, and Orchard Lake fits that description with beautiful Apple Island in the center.  It’s right up the road from the studio and a great backdrop for senior pictures!  So when an actual Eden came our way it seemed to make perfect sense to shoot there – by an “actual Eden” we mean our latest senior to highlight here on the blog – Eden!  Eden’s mom Lisa joined us and we had a great day starting in the studio so let’s begin there:

Eden

Love that – just simple on the white background!

We also have some fun behind the scenes as we usually do – first from the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:


 At this point we headed over to Orchard Lake and we also have some Pure Michigan fall color going on!

In the Eden Of Orchard Lake…

Eden

Beautiful – love Eden’s smile here and that’s Apple Island in the background with the pretty fall colors!  We also like the way the branch in the foreground frames her nicely…

Here’s another with more fall color:

Eden

So pretty!

Let’s take a look at some more behind the scenes action this time from the replay of our YouTube Live broadcast:

And one more from our day…

Eden

Love it – great one to finish with at our Eden with our Eden!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Kristen Is Our First Falcon And She Represented In Style!

by
No Comments

It’s pretty hard to believe that after basically 9 years of photographing seniors that we never photographed a Farmington Falcon!  So finally……enter Kristen!  Kristen came to us as a cousin of some former seniors of ours and we were pretty excited to keep the chain going and get some Falcon love on our blog!  Kristen was a perfect first Falcon too, so let’s get to it!

First Falcon…

Kristen had a little entourage for her session here at the studio and her lovely mom Jordon met us downtown for the location shoot at Eastern Market as well – much fun!  After a quick few shots in the studio we stopped at a park in Farmington before we headed downtown and that’s where we’ll pick up the action:

First Falcon

Nice!!!

We also have some behind the scenes fun as usual from there in a Facebook Live replay:

At this point we headed downtown and we were actually a little nervous because it rained on the way down – it was NOT supposed to!  But we lucked out – the weather held once we got down there and we were able to get some great shots.  Not to mention an overcast sky can really work to your advantage anyway because the light is nice and diffused.

First Falcon

Love that…

Here’s another:

First FalconThe color is so vibrant and with the flowers on Kristen’s shirt it ties in nicely!

Time for a little more behind the scenes fun this time from our YouTube Live broadcast replay!

And we’ll leave you with one more photo…

First Falcon

And there you have it!  Our First Falcon was a winner and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

An Honor To Have Chase Here For His Senior Pictures!

by
No Comments

Yes it was fun to have Chase here for his senior pictures, but it was also an honor since Chase will be joining the Army after high school!  What a great kid and we know he’ll have a great career in the armed forces.  But for now let’s enjoy the fun pics where everyone got involved from the fam to Diva the pup, and this session was broken up into two days because of weather…  that seems to be a bit of a theme this Fall!

An Honor To Have Chase…

So we started in the studio on our scheduled day even with the bad weather outside and mom Krysten and nana Denise both joined us!  Great ladies!  Here is Chase on the white backdrop for the clean basic contemporary look – always a winner.

Honor

 

We also have some behind the scenes with the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast where Chase donned a little Army gear (a t-shirt, ballcap, and camo shorts)!

And the result:

Honor

Very cool!  We support our military!

Day 2

The day we had scheduled for the location session was a perfect day and everyone got into the act here…  so fun!  Let’s start with Chase and Diva the German Shepherd!

Honor

Diva even smiled for the picture!  Awesome.

We have more behind the scenes here too this time from the replay of the YouTube Live broadcast:

We’ll leave you with the family shot complete with the little bros!

Honor

And there you have it – an honor to be with these folks and Chase especially.  A fine young man to be sure!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with all of them!

Ah Yeah Aliya! Your Senior Picture Session Rocked!

by
2 Comments

Ah yeah Aliya’s session rocked!  And why not?  Her sister Nadia’s session rocked and her whole family – well, they generally rock all the way around.  In other words, we like them.  With Aliya we actually were forced to break up her session into separate days due to weather which was fine with us – more time with her and her delightful mom Nisha!

Ah Yeah Aliya!

Meanwhile Aliya brought some traditional dress to the proceedings which always makes us happy – so beautiful to photograph with the vibrant colors and patterns!

We started in the studio on a crummy day outdoors as we mentioned before, but it’s always perfect in the studio so let’s take a look!

Ah Yeah Aliya

Love that!

We have some behind the scenes fun for you as well – first with the replay of the Facebook Live broadcast we did:

And one more from the studio before we get to our location day….

Ah Yeah Aliya

Love the earth tones, the wooden floor, the backdrop – all of it!

Now let’s head outside!  For our rescheduled day for the location part the weather cooperated much better and we headed over to the West Bloomfield trail network and nature preserve. 

Ah Yeah Aliya

Beautiful!  The lighting, the traditional clothing – Alia looks amazing!

We also have more behind the scenes – this time from the YouTube Live broadcast:

And we’ll leave you with one more from our day!

Ah Yeah Aliya

Great one to finish on!

And there you have it!  Ah yeah Aliya definitely rocked her senior session and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day(s) with her!

by
No Comments

In the category for Nabbing A Perfect Senior Session we are nominating Nora!!!  Holy moly – everything about this one is fabulous.  We’ve known Nora going back to elementary school days in the Magnet program at Roosevelt Elementary with our daughter Lacey, and she was always a sweetheart of a little girl then.  Now that’s she’s a senior she’s still the same sweetheart, just all grown up and more beautiful than ever!  We were so happy to have her here and we had so much fun with her and her mom Rajaa!  We’re pretty excited to present these sneak peeks…

Nominating Nora…

 We started out in the studio and we’ll highlight one of those photos first with the white outfit on the white backdrop.  White on white or black on black both look really nice if you light them properly!Nominating Nora

Great right?

We have some behind the scenes fun for you as usual – first from the setup above in the studio on Facebook Live:

For the location part of the session with Nora we started with a return to Orchard Lake at a spot we hadn’t photographed in years to get a photo with the lake in the background and here’s the result:

Nominating Nora

Spectacular!

Here’s some more behind the scenes – this time at the lake on YouTube Live:

At this point we had another stop to make – this time over behind the West Bloomfield Library and the light was perfect!  These next two photos Nora was really in the zone.  This first one in the meadow with the slight haze and the backlight on her hair…

Nominating Nora

…breathtakingly beautiful!!!  Wow.

And this one with Nora just relaxing up close and personal….

by
No Comments

The allure of Liz’s lovely senior session is strong indeed because it’s um…..awesome!  We are big fans of this girl – she has an artist’s point of view as an aspiring photographer herself and we really enjoyed photographing her!  The only problem is that we’re a Canon shop and she shoots with a Nikon – ha – but that just proves how much we like her that we still let her into the studio and even took a photo of her with her camera which you’ll see below!  Liz’s mom Marion came along for the fun, Liz looked amazing and we are excited to show you these highlights so let’s get to it…

Allure Of Liz’s Lovely Senior Session

We started out in the studio and here is a good time to give a shout out to Mandy Rose studio for the makeup – a fantastic job as usual.

Allure

Love that setup with the damask backdrop and the wooden floor!  And love Liz’s style!

We also have some fun behind the scenes here first with the replay of our YouTube Live broadcast getting the photo above!

While we were in the studio we let Liz break out her Nikon and we took this fun photo:

Allure

So fun – a girl and her camera and a girl after our own hearts!!!

At this point it was time to head out on location in Birmingham where we had a great day and where we captured this next photo – stunning really…

Allure

Wow.  Absolutely gorgeous.

Here’s another behind the scenes replay from the day this time from Facebook Live:

Sami’s Sublime Senior Session Was One To Remember!

by
No Comments

Sami’s sublime senior session was one to remember, and why wouldn’t it be?  We already photographed Sami before as a spokesmodel representing the class of 2018 and that session was fab so we already knew we could look forward to another awesome outing!  This time we went to the E.L. Johsnon Nature Center in Bloomfield Hills and our conditions were perfect!  Sami’s mom Lisa and her boyfriend Greg joined to be Sami’s cheering section too!  Great lighting, great senior and plenty of natural beauty all around…. much to enjoy so let’s get to it!

Sami’s Sublime Senior Session

Our first stop was on this beautiful long bridge – a great photo to kick it off…

Sublime Senior Session Sublime!  The backlight on her hair is such a great accent and Sami is off to a perfect start here!

We also have some behind the scenes fun for you too – first with the replay of the Facebook Live broadcast:

At this point we headed out on the trails to get some pure nature – flowers, trees – plenty of beauty!

Sublime Senior SessionSo pretty!

Sublime Senior Session

Just a relaxed, happy Sami here – love it.

We also have some more behind the scenes this time from the YouTube Live replay:

And we’ll leave you with this lovely photo of Sami just being Sami….

Sublime indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Sami – it was definitely one to remember!

A Dazzling Day In Detroit With Dani For Her Senior Pictures!

by
No Comments

We gushed about Dani plenty when we blogged about her spokesmodel session and after knowing her for about 6 months as she’s represented the studio for the class of 2018 we can say with certainty it was all justified.  We LOVE this girl and we definitely had a dazzling day with her in Detroit!  Her mom Diana came along for the fun and as you’ll see it was a session to remember.

Dazzling Day With Dani

Many of the highlights of this session ended up being in The Belt which we’ll get to, but we started out on Belle Isle and captured this stunner:

Dazzling Day

Wow – dazzling right?  I also have to say that I’ve been playing around with the new Snapchat filters on my iPhone for some of the behind the scenes stuff we put on our Snapchat stories and I think this one of Ally capturing the photo of Dani above is worth including here – like a cool little painting…

Meanwhile we have the YouTube live broadcast replay from Belle Isle as well for you here:

Now let’s head over to The Belt in downtown Detroit where we captured some real winners!

Dazzling Day

Love it – and here is the behind the scenes Facebook Live broadcast replay that goes with that shot:

Her outfit seemed to be just perfect for the colors there too….

Dazzling Day

We also went to an art gallery there that rotates installations of different mediums and we’ve been lucky enough to be there when they invited us in to take photos.  That’s where this last one was captured:

Dazzling Day

So cool!  And there you have it – a dazzling day in Detroit with Dani indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights!
