A Fiery, Fall and Soccer Senior Session Jam With Josh!

Soccer senior sessions and Fall sessions are cool, and with Josh we got both!  Josh is a legacy and soccer runs strong in his family as we found out when his brother Jake came in a few years ago, and we love this family so we knew Josh would be a good dude – he was the only one we hadn’t met yet!

Soccer Senior

We started in the studio where Josh’s mom Shari joined us for the fun!  We broke out the fire for this first pic – check it out:

Soccer SeniorSo dope. 

We also have some fun behind the scenes action from that image from the Instagram Live broadcast we did:

At this point we headed out for some fall colors as they are really cool here in Michigan when the leaves start to turn… It was a pretty chilly day but as we (or at least I) say it’s ALL mental!  Lol…

Soccer Senior

Pure Michigan!  Josh looks great!

We have some more behind the scenes from that photo as well – this time from Facebook Live:

Let’s leave you with a couple more – first in a relaxed pose:

Soccer Senior

And one last photo… don’t try this one at home…hehe.

Soccer Senior

Awesome – fire, fall and a soccer senior – what could be better?  Josh is a great kid who is going to go far, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with him!

Manufacturing Some Senior Picture Magic With Madison!

Madison has been to our studio before for family pics, her brother was a Frameable senior here and we’ve known her mom Jodie for over 30 years, so we knew we would be manufacturing some senior picture magic with her, and that’s just what we did!

Magic With Madison

We started in the studio and that’s the image we’ll start with here in black and white:

Madison

Wowzers!!!

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

At this point we headed out on location to get some natural settings and Madison was rocking it at this point – first with a little brick:

MadisonLove it!

Then we went with all nature first for this closeup with a pop of fall color:

Madison

She looks gorgeous!  We also have some more behind the scenes this time from Instagram LIVE:

And we’ll leave you with one more:

Madison

A great one to finish with – you can see that we manufactured some senior picture magic with Madison indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with her!

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

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!

Holy Moly It’s Magnificence With Maddy On Her Senior Session!

Magnificence is defined as “the state of being strikingly beautiful or impressive”.  So, yeah sure we’ll go with that since it’s uh……SPOT ON with this girl!!!  Maddy is indeed an impressive young lady!  We’ve known her for a long time and this is actually the second time she’s appeared on our blog going back to the time of her Bat Mitzvah!  She’s also a legacy as a senior since her older sis Haley was also a Frameable senior so we were looking forward to this one.

Magnificence With Maddy

We were ultimately joined by the whole fam – proud parents Donna and Stuart joined, Haley cruised home from Ann Arbor, and the pup and grandpa all showed up – we love a fun family outing!  We mainly photographed around the West Bloomfield City Hall where there is a ton of spots to use including this awesome burning bush you’ve seen here before.  Maddy rocked it!

Magnificence

We also have some fun behind the scenes from the day – first with the replay of the Instagram Live:

Even Missy the pup got in on the action – a girl and her dog!

Magnificence

Okay how CUTE is that?

Here we have a stunningly magnificent image of Maddy just up close and personal:

Magnificence

Gorgeous!

We also have a little more behind the scenes from Facebook Live for you:

And we’ll leave you with one more with some beautiful backlight:

Magnificence

Wow! 

And there you have it – magnificence with Maddy indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with her!

Going For The Gold With Grace and Hurdling To Senior Session Greatness!

This was probably the easiest blog post title I’ve ever had to write!  Going for the gold was easy with Grace because she’s a sweetheart, she’s an accomplished track and field student-athlete, she’s friends with another of our all time fave seniors Jojo, and she’s a gold medal hurdler herself!  Like – for real!

Going For The Gold With Grace…

This was a session of firsts for us – we found a new spot that we photographed for the first time in Pontiac, and we set a hurdle on fire – we’ve set plenty of stuff on fire before but never a hurdle!  Before we get to the hurdle we’ll start with the location photos in Pontiac where we noticed a little marble structure that we never used before that framed Grace nicely:

Gold

Gorgeous!

We also have some fun behind the scenes for you first from the replay of the Instagram LIVE:

We were all a little hungry at this point too, so we stopped for a snack and discovered that while Grace likes guacamole she has zero interest in avocado toast.  We’re not totally sure why.  Hehe…

So an outfit change later we did a little more exploring in Pontiac and captured these next couple images…

Gold

We are always fans of the fire escapes…

Gold

Grace looks amazing!

At this point it was time to get back to the studio where the session got REALLY LIT!!!  Grace brought a hurdle to the studio and we lit it on fire – kinda like the fire Grace leaves in her wake as she hurdles to greatness!  Check out the behind the scenes broadcast of this from Facebook – it’s sooooo cool!

And here’s the fiery result!

Gold

LOVE IT!!!

We’re going to leave you with one more video….  We don’t usually post these types of things here but we can’t help it – we’re just SO excited for Grace!  Not long after our session Grace was off to Argentina to compete in the Summer Youth Olympic Games where she took the GOLD in the women’s 100 meter hurdles!  Here she is going for gold!

And there you have it – now you see what we meant when we said we were going for the gold and hurdling towards senior session greatness!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Grace!

Ally Photographs Alli – The Sequel! A Stunner Of A Senior Session!

When Ally photographs Alli it’s a good time – we know because it’s happened a couple times before – once when Alli was just a wee lass, once earlier this year for her senior spokesmodel session, and now we bring you highlights of the senior sequel!

Ally Photographs Alli – The Sequel…

We spent most of our time on location for some beautiful summer themed images and we definitely got what we set out for…

Ally Photographs Alli

So pretty!!!  One of our favorite meadows and Alli looks amazing.

We also have some fun behind the scenes from the session and we also hear from proud mom Risa who joined us!  First from the meadow on Instagram!

 

Now let’s get up close and personal with our model…

Ally Photographs Alli

LOVE. IT.

At this point we switched locations to get a few photos by the water at Orchard Lake.  It was a perfect day too…

Ally Photographs Alli

Beautiful!

We have more behind the scenes fun here as well this time from Facebook Live:

And we’ll leave you with one more:

Ally Photographs Alli

Ally photographing Alli – the Sequel was absolutely worth the wait!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

A Stunning Breakaway Senior Session In Hockeytown With Morgan!

A breakaway in hockey is when a player has the puck and an open skating lane to the net with no one in front of her.  That’s how we felt with Morgan on her senior session – nothing stopping us and nothing stopping this girl!  Morgan is one of our spokesmodels for the class of 2019 and we were looking forward to this session – especially since Little Caesars Arena is her team’s home ice and we were able to get on the ice for a few photos!  But more on that later…

A Stunning Breakaway Senior Session…

Morgan’s mom Jodi joined us for an overall epic day in Detroit which started on Belle Isle.  We really thought we might be in trouble with the weather but that day was pretty much do or die scheduling wise and it started to pour on the way down.  Uh oh….  BUT – lo and behold it stopped when we got to Belle Isle and there wasn’t another drop from the time we started photographing Morgan!  Let’s start with this amazing new angle of the D as the backdrop for this stunning image of our girl!

Breakaway Senior

WOWWWWWWW.  Such a cool image and Morgan looks fantastic!

Here’s one up close and personal:

Breakaway Senior

At this point we headed over to Eastern Market to get some murals and we fired up the Instagram LIVE for some behind the scenes fun:

And here’s a cool mural shot with Morgan’s reflection in the water from the day’s rains…

Breakaway Senior

Just love that one…

Now it was time to head over to Little Caesar’s Arena and with a little assist from Red Wings Zamboni legend and building manager Al Sobotka we headed on down to the practice ice where Morgan’s team the Little Caesar’s 19U Girls AAA plays.  Here’s the fun behind the scenes from Facebook Live!

And we’ll leave you with this fun photo from the ice!

Breakaway Senior

Okay actually we’ll leave you with the Snapchat story from the day because it’s just too good…. including the fiery setup in the studio after a stop at Chili Mustard Onions for lunch!  So much to cover – too much to cram all of it into a blog post!!! Lol…  

And there you have it – a stunning breakaway senior session with Morgan in Hockeytown indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

It’s Madi Madness! A Super Fun Senior Session That We “Crushed”!

So how about some Madi Madness?  Madness in a good way – as in madly great photos of a madly great girl…  What a sweetheart and her mom Teresa is a delight as well!  We actually met Madi months ago here at the studio when she popped in with our son’s buddy and current spokesmodel (and current Madi boyfriend) Josh, and we liked her instantly – she’s hard not to like.

Madi Madness

We had a game plan that focused mainly on outdoor location photos in Birmingham and we even had the pup join!  But first let’s start with just Madi with this beautiful closeup:

Madi Madness

 
Gorgeous!
 
We also have some fun behind the scenes first from the replay of our Instagram Livestream:
 

And here’s where the session temporarily went to the dogs – say hi to Ollie!

Madi Madness

Love a smiling pup!

At this point we headed over to downtown Birmingham where we took this classic pose by Madi’s request – and she rocked it!

Madi Madness

We fired up the live video one more time too – this time on Facebook Live:

And we’ll leave you with one more cute pose with the lamppost:

Madi Madness

Love it!  And we love Madi Madness!  We hope you loved the highlights of our day with her!

Oh wait….  our friend Aaron Norvell has a hashtag he’s promoting on Instagram called #IJustCrushed – we got in on that as a little bonus for you… hehe…

Chloe Makes Another Cameo Here With Senior Pictures From Birmingham!

We’re excited to bring you another cameo from Chloe here on our blog!  Chloe is representing our studio as a spokesmodel for the class of 2019 at Birmingham Groves and she’s the third and final Frameable Faces senior of three sisters in this family!  Chloe is closing a chapter you might say…and while she might be last she’s certainly not least!

Chloe Makes Another Cameo

For Chloe’s session her mom Krista accompanied us to Birmingham where we got some natural settings and some city settings – we’ll start with the natural first…

Another Cameo

So pretty!!!

We also have some behind the scenes fun from the session – first with the replay of the Facebook Live broadcast:

At this point we headed over to downtown Birmingham where we got some great stuff!  Like this…

Another Cameo

And this….

Another Cameo

We also have some behind the scenes from the Instagram Live we did as well:

And we’ll leave you with one more photo:

Another Cameo

A little patriotic flair on that one – she was born on the 4th of July after all…!  And there you have it – another cameo from Chloe and it’s a fine one!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our morning with her!

A Fiery Studio Senior Session Full of Jump Shots With Jada!

Okay so there’s no such thing really as a “jump shot” in photography terminology.  We technically don’t even use the word “shots” often, preferring to call them “photos”.  However in this case we’ll make an exception because a “jump shot” IS a basketball term, Jada is a hoopster, and she makes us want to jump (for joy of course) when we have her in the studio, so “jump shots with Jada” it is!  Jada’s mom Glenda is a delight as well and we were really happy they picked us!

Jump Shots With Jada

Jada plays guard for the West Bloomfield Lakers and we love photographing athletes so we planned a few photos in her uniform, but before we get to those we played around with multiple colors and outfits all in the studio which is a lot of fun – it gives us a chance to kind of stretch out and experiment a little without having to get going outside at some point:

Jump shots

Okay, she’s adorable…

We also have plenty of fun behind the scenes action – first with the replay of the Facebook LIVE video:

Love that gold…  next we moved to the red background with the red couch for this “BOSS” photo…

Jump shots

Just slaying the camera there… OWNING it!!!

Next we brought out the black backdrop and this combo just worked!

Jump shots

Gorgeous.

Now it was time to get out the Laker gear and get some FIRE going…  We have some behind the scenes of the hoops photos with the flaming ball too that we streamed on Instagram – don’t try this at home you crazy kids….

And the fiery result:

Jump shots

So cool!!!  We loved our jump shots with Jada and we hope you liked the highlights of our day with her!
