No Comments

We had just about the sweetest sibling session here at the studio on the occasion of the youngest’s 6 month milestone and these three were so fun!!!  Mom Ashley has been here with hubby Chris and the kids before but this was Enzo’s first appearance with older sibs Lucca & Sylla together and there was definitely more magic this time around…

Sweetest Sibling Session

So this was a pretty straightforward approach with the kids on the brown backdrop and their outfits were amazing…  Let’s start with the three together:

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 Senior Session

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!

Mason Makes It Happen On His Senior Picture Session!

by
No Comments

Mason definitely made it happen on his senior session – and it wasn’t his first one.  Okay well it was his first one that was his senior session but he came along on his brother Reed’s session a year ago so he knew what to expect and he was ready to roll.  What a great kid – the kind of kid you can look at him a certain way and get him laughing and then everyone is laughing.  We had a lot of fun and mom Tracie and dad Brent joined again and we’ve known them for decades.  Brent is one of the few really cool people I met back in my corporate days who I’ve remained friends with and the whole family is great.

Mason Makes It Happen

So with Mason the plan was to head over to the Franklin Cider Mill to get some location photos – always a great spot and we’ll start there:

Mason

Looking great!  The conditions were fantastic too as you can see with that great backlight!

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

And one more up close and personal with our guy before we head back to the studio:

Mason

Stud!!!

At this point we headed back to the studio to get a few more starting with this one…

Mason

How great is the bow tie?  More seniors should wear these…. just sayin’

Here’s another behind the scenes replay – this time from YouTube Live:

And we’ll finish with one more casual shot from the studio:

Mason

And there you have it – Mason made it happen for sure, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Closing In On Absolute Clearcut Cuteness With Chloe!

by
No Comments

Hmmmm….. how to achieve absolute clearcut cuteness…?  Let’s see:

1 – Very smart sweet cute senior

1- Awesome Family

1- Perfect Day for shooting

Several – Undefinable intangibles that just make everything seem to work

Meet ahead of time, mix all ingredients together and serve!

Yep – the recipe worked.  We definitely closed in on absolute clearcut cuteness with Chloe.

What was kind of fun was the parent trade off that happened!  Chloe’s mom JJ and her dad Adam had just slightly overlapping schedules and so JJ was with us for some of the day and she “handed off” to Adam to hang out with us for the end of the session!

Absolute Clearcut Cuteness

So we started with a little bit of studio work which yielded this photo on the white background:

Absolute Clearcut Cuteness

We love that one – just cool confident and chill!

At this point we headed out to Birmingham for location photos and we started at Quarton Lake where we got this stunning close up:

Absolute Clearcut Cuteness

Wow!

We also have some fun behind the scenes for you starting with the replay of our YouTube Live broadcast – be sure to subscribe to our channel to tune in to future broadcasts!

We also headed into downtown Birmingham to get some city photos like this one – this photo is one that has one of those undefinable intangibles that we mentioned in the recipe above.  We had no idea that the shadow of me holding “Reflecto” our reflector would form a big heart until we saw the result!

Absolute Clearcut Cuteness

So fun!

And we also have more behind the scenes fun here from the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:

 

And one more photo to share from the top of one of the parking structures – cool shot here…

Absolute Clearcut Cuteness

Absolute clearcut cuteness indeed!

And there you have it – we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Chloe!!!

Up And At ‘Em For Some Laker Pride And Senior Photos With Jared!

by
No Comments

When we say we were up and at ’em for some Laker Pride with Jared we aren’t kidding!  The first photo you’ll see in these sneak peeks is one you would assume was a night time shot, but it was actually a morning shot before sunrise!  The schedule just worked out that way so we said let’s go for it, and you know what?  There’s something to be said for that “early to bed early to rise” thing…  ha!  Meanwhile Jared is a cool dude and his dad Phil joined us who was very helpful having dabbled in some photography himself.  Needless to say, it was a memorable morning and the proof is in the portraits.

Laker Pride with Jared…

So for the first shot we headed back to the West Bloomfield High School SWAMP (that’s the nickname for their football stadium) where we’ve photographed a couple of Jared’s teammates this year to get what has become somewhat of a signature football shot of ours – another winner – Jared looks the part for sure!

Laker Pride

Looking good – Laker Pride indeed…

Once we got the photos we needed at the Swamp we headed over to Birmingham to take a few city photos and we have a little behind the scenes fun for you starting with the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:

Here are two of the resulting photos from this segment of the morning:

Laker Pride

Big fans of that one…  and one more:

Laker Pride

Nice!

At this point we brought it back home to the studio to finish up and here is the behind the scenes as Jared donned his letter jacket and showed off a little versatility with a multi-sport approach, and maybe our first shot put photo (?)….

And here is the result!

Laker Pride

Awesome stuff.  We had one heck of a morning with this guy and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with him!

We’ve Got Much Senior Picture Magnificence With Madelin!

by
No Comments

We’ve got much senior picture magnificence with Madelin and we’re excited to share some of it!  Madelin is a Frameable legacy since her brother Nathan was here a couple of years ago, and what’s funny is that while Madelin’s mom Tracy and her sister Nora both joined us on this session, Madelin herself played the “mom role” on Nathan’s session making sure he was on point – so this wasn’t her first rodeo so to speak – ha!  Meanwhile we’ve known Madelin since she was born – her dad is an old college teammate of mine so sessions like these are always a little surreal for us – in a magnificent sort of way…..

Magnificence With Madelin

With this session we spent the entire time on location on a perfect morning the last day of August and we started at Heritage Park in Farmington Hills:

Madelin

Off to a great start!  Madelin looks great and we love that spot on the rocks…

We also have some fun behind the scenes action from the session like we always do – first from the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:

Moving right along we have this one of Madeline with a little help from a gentle breeze! 

Madelin

…and one more from Heritage Park up close – LOVE this one:

Madelin

The lighting, the smile – it all came together for that shot for sure – there’s that magnificence we’re talking about!!!

Madeline will be pursuing her education and softball career at U of M Dearborn – so cool!  We wanted to get a photo to reflect that so at this point we headed to a local softball diamond…  here is the behind the scenes from our YouTube Live broadcast:

And the result:

Madelin

Go Blue!

And there you have it!  Senior picture magnificence with Madelin!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

A Perfect Day In Detroit Photographing Jordyn Is Our Jam!

by
No Comments

We’ve had a ball photographing Jordyn while she’s been representing our studio as a spokesmodel for the class of 2018, and a perfect day in Detroit photographing Jordyn is definitely our jam.  As was the case with Jordyn’s spokesmodel session this was a family affair with mom Stacy, dad Eric, and even older sister Sydney met up with us for part of the day!  The game plan here other than the yearbook headshot at the studio was to explore Detroit and explore Detroit we did!

In Detroit Photographing Jordyn…

We started out at Belle Isle which is where we spent a good deal of time.  The more we shoot there the more great spots we find.  The first photo we’ll highlight is of Jordyn at the James Scott Memorial Fountain:

Detroit Photographing Jordyn

Great spot, great backlight, great senior!  As I said we roamed around the island and even stopped at the beach for a few yoga poses as you’ll see in this fun behind the scenes replay of our Facebook Live video we did!

Here’s another photo with the unique aesthetic of looking through a natural window at our girl…

Detroit Photographing Jordyn

So cool and Jordyn looks amazing!

To Eastern Market…

At this point we headed over to the Eastern Market area for some murals to play with and some grit and we found plenty of both!  First the mural:

Detroit Photographing Jordyn

Knowing where your light is and how to use it is key…. love the backlight on Jordyn’s hair once again!

We also have some more fun behind the scenes here as we headed into one of our fave empty buildings – this time from the replay of our YouTube Live video:


And the result with the grit:  

Detroit Photographing JordynAwesome shot to finish with!  Yes being in Detroit photographing Jordyn is definitely our jam and you can see why!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

by
No Comments

As promised we present Part 2 of yesterday’s Twin Senior highlights!!!  Yesterday the focus was on Hallie, and today it’s Shoshie FO SHO!!!  Haha!  Loving the results from the day we spent with these two and their mom Caryn – we laughed a lot that day and the girls were rock stars!

Shoshie Fo Sho!

The focus for both girls was the summer style portraits on location in a natural setting so today will be more of the same awesomeness, and we’ll start with this one on the edge of the Quarton Lake dock in Birmingham:

Shoshie Fo Sho

She looks great!  A little backlight and great conditions that day too!

The next pose shows a playful side of Shoshie – much fun!

Shoshie Fo Sho

Love it!

We also have the behind the scenes live stream from Facebook for you – the YouTube Live broadcast is in Hallie’s post.

With twins we have plenty of time to roam around and hit different spots and here’s one of Shoshie in the stream…Shoshie Fo Sho

Love her reflection in the water too!

One more of Shoshie close up….

Shoshie Fo Sho
