Spokesmodeling With Sophie in The Sity (Okay fine the City)!

If you’ve followed this blog long enough you know we are very alliterative around here…  The “triple s” title for this one was too hard to pass up with our Raider Representative Sophie!!!  North Farmington Raiders that is which WE are as well, and we are heads over heels for this adorable ball of energy and aspiring tattoo artist from the upcoming senior class of 2025!  We’ve actually known Sophie for most of her life so her mom Carrie gave her to us for the day and what a day!  We hung out, laughed a ton, ate, and oh – we took some photos too.  Some AMAZING photos.  We’ve got a lot to look forward to for this upcoming class if our spokesmodel crew is any indicator so far.  Let’s get to the pics!

Sophie In The Sity

We started out at Eastern Market which was definitely bustling on this Saturday morning…

Sophie In The Sity

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!!!!!

And we have some fun behind the scenes as well from the session which is all part of the fun – this one is from Instagram:

Here’s another one close by:

Sophie In The Sity

And more behind the scenes this time from Facebook!

To be clear we go into every senior session with a strategy – we have a consultation with our seniors before every session, and while our spokesmodel sessions tend to be our time to experiment with new locations and techniques we don’t always know when we’ll come across an open suitcase in a vintage store that our fun-sized senior will fit in so perfectly!  Hehe…. this photo is everything. 

Sophie In The Sity

How awesome is that?

And we’ll leave you with this one – a gorgeous dress at a gorgeous spot.  As you can see it’s typical for our seniors to change outfits multiple times for different looks in our sessions.  They can change as many times as they like!

Sophie In The Sity

Wow.  Breathtaking!!!

We cannot WAIT to get this girl in front of Ally’s camera again along with the rest of the class of 2025 Frameable SENIORS, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with Sophie in the Sity!

Brennan Brings It In Detroit and In The Studio For Senior Pics!

Brennan brings it indeed in these highlights from his recent senior session and we aren’t surprised… We’ve been photographing this dude for pretty much his whole life going back to family pics and his bar mitzvah (photographed by our awesome event photographer Angela) along with his older sis Riley for her senior pics, and so on and so on…..so we knew this would be a great time with Brennan and his mom Monique.  We go wayyyyyyy back – they’re family really.  So let’s get to some highlights!

Brennan Brings It

Let’s do the Detroit pics first:

Brennan

STUD.

We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Instagram at the DIA:

So cool!

Here’s a little more behind the scenes from Facebook downtown:

Back at the studio

Back at the studio we got some hockey and letterjacket shots – Brennan is a Walled Lake Northern Knight playing for the combined Walled Lake hockey squad.

Brennan

Dude es en fuego.

And we’ll leave you with this one in the hoodie:

Brennan

Great one to end on…

So there you have it – Brennan brings it and then we bring it to you!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Lyndon In The Limelight – As He Should Be!

Lyndon is one impressive dude.  For starters, this class of 2024 Hazel Park Viking student-athlete is a FIREFIGHTER!  Yep – it’s one of the only programs like it for high schoolers to learn the firefighting trade – how cool is that?  We’ve never had a senior with full firefighting gear in the studio and we were honored to be taking Lyndon’s portraits with his gear on.  On top of this he’s just good – a nice outgoing sweetheart of a guy and we were happy to have him here with his foster parents Andrew and Ashley, whose engagement portraits we did years ago!  So let’s get to some highlights…

Lyndon In The Limelight

First we have our guy in the studio here with a formal look:

Lyndon

Looking dapper!!!

Next Lyndon broke out the heavy gear and we have some behind the scenes from Facebook:

 

And the result!

Lyndon

How awesome is that????

Okay at this point we headed to Detroit so let’s take a look at a couple of those:

Lyndon

Nothing stops Detroit – or Lyndon.

We have some more behind the scenes as well from Instagram:

Senior Picture Session Transcendence With Talia!

Talia returned to be in front of Ally’s camera once again as she did in fabulous fashion as a spokesmodel for the class of 2024 in the Spring!  We took it up a notch this time for some true transcendence with Talia!  The first basic definition of transcendence is “exceeding usual limits” and yeah – we did that.  What a day in Detroit and Talia’s mom Karen joined us for the fun!  Let’s get to the highlights…

Transcendence With Talia

Transcendence

See what we mean?  Spectacular!

Here’s another from Eastern Market…

Transcendence

Looking good Talia!  We also have some fun behind the scenes from Facebook and a Detroit Police officer even stopped to say hello:

Okay one more from Eastern Market – LOVE this color…

Transcendence

And then there’s this amazing one to end on…

Transcendence

Wow.  Yep – transcendence with Talia no doubt.  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Ally Loves Allie – We Actually All Do – She’s Awesome!

This isn’t just some “same name connection” going on here – we love this girl and her whole family like a whole lot.  We’ve known them for a really long time and Allie’s senior pics were as much fun as we knew they’d be.  We always have fun with this crew.  Mom Jodi and big sis Jordyn joined us for a day in Detroit for the fun and the results are totally FAB for this BHHS Class of 2024 Blackhawk.  Let’s get to the highlights! 

Ally Loves Allie

So we started at the DIA and that’s where we’ll start here:

Ally Loves Allie

Okay she’s adorable.

Next we headed over to Belle Isle and we were so happy to see the fountain on!  Here’s some behind the scenes from Facebook:

And here’s one by one of our fave willow trees!

Ally Loves Allie

 

Yassssss

How about a nice close up?

Ally Loves Allie

Also a shoutout on makeup by Marissa at Mandy Rose Studio!

Last stop was Eastern Market before a bite to eat at Pie Sci… Allie looks great with the blue mural and a well timed breeze adds the assist!

Ally Loves Allie

And there you have it!  Ally loves Allie and now you know why – we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Noah’s Nifty Senior Pictures In The Heart Of Detroit!

We are psyched to present these highlights of Noah’s Nifty Senior Session in the heart of Detroit!!!  What a great kid, and we had a fantastic time in the D on a perfect day with Noah, his mom Lauren and her boyfriend Corey.  We even hit a spot or two we didn’t know about which is always cool for us.  Obviously there are tons of spots in Detroit.  So let’s get to the pics of this class of 2024 Frankel Jewish Academy Jaguar!

Noah’s Nifty Pics

Our first stop was Comerica Park where the Miggy retirement celebration was in full effect and we got this photo in front of the huge Tiger…

A roaring good photo huh?

Now let’s zoom in on our guy for a few…

An outfit change later:

Nifty

Looking nifty indeed!  We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Facebook:

Next stop Eastern Market!

Nifty

One more destination – Belle Isle – and first we headed to the fountain which was actually on – here’s some behind the scenes from Instagram:

And last but not least – Noah plays baseball for the Jags too – so you don’t want this smoke coming from the pitcher’s mound….

Nifty

How bad ass is that one?

So there you have it!  What a day, and we hope you enjoyed the highlights!

Getting It Right With Ryan In Detroit For Senior Pictures!

Detroit is hitting this senior season and Ryan represents our latest trek down there!  This Class of 2024 Bloomfield Hills Blackhawk is a legacy since we photographed his big bro Michael in another urban setting in Pontiac 5 years ago!  Ryan’s dad Matt joined us on this session and we had our share of laughs – good times getting it right with Ryan – let’s get to the highlights!

Getting It Right With Ryan

Right With Ryan

Looking good!  Ryan went with a couple different schools to represent his choices and he changed it up as we went along.

There are always plenty of cool murals to hit in Eastern Market like this one with Eminem & the D12 crew…

Right With Ryan

Cool.

We also have some behind the scenes first from Facebook:

And the result:

Right With Ryan

You don’t want that smoke!  Hehe…

We bounced around a few more locations including the Joe Louis fist – highlights on Instagram:

Making It Happen On A Day To Remember With Morgan!

So we may have saved the best class of 2023 senior session for last even as we’re already in the midst of class of 2024 sessions, and we are pretty darn excited to share.  Morgan’s session took a some planning and the wait was absolutely worth it and then some!  Morgan is a really big Detroit Lions fan, he’s a legacy since we photographed his sister Madi, and we’ve known his parents for a long long time, so when you add it all up and include a day at Ford Field for his pics, you get a day to remember on SO many levels – like FOR REAL.
 

Making It Happen With Morgan

Without going into all the details this plan came right down to the wire, and for the people involved who helped make this happen – we are fully indebted with gratitude.  If you know, you know.  Let’s get to the pics.
 
Morgan
Morgan put the “I” in “GRIT” and do you think he looks happy?  Absolutely.
 
And how many seniors get to give their own press conference???
 
Morgan
We actually have the footage of the press conference…  take a look from our Instagram livestream as the press (Doug, Ally, Morgan’s mom Amy and our amazing tour guides Marena and Sherita fire away their questions…)  hehe…

Next we headed to the locker room for a jersey change and a photo in front of Doug’s old teammate’s kid’s locker.😉

Morgan

At this point it was time to take the field, and we have some behind the scenes fun from that on our Facebook livestream:
 

And we’ll leave you with this last pic of one fired up Lion…

Morgan

So there you have it!  We definitely made it happen with Morgan – a day none of us will forget and we hope you enjoyed the highlights!
 
GO LIONS!

Ending In Epic Fashion With Elana – A High Note For Class Of ’23!

So listen, we love our seniors.  All of them.  And that doesn’t change if we say that we MAY have saved the best for last.  We aren’t playing favorites here, but Elana’s session was EPIC.  As the likely last senior for the class of 2023 we can say we ended in epic fashion indeed, including a first for us of photographing at Jack White’s Third Man Records in Detroit!  So cool.  This was also an encore for Elana since they appeared on this blog before as a spokesmodel for the class of 2023!  Elana’s mom Barrett and latecomer dad David (haha) both joined us for this session and we’re pretty psyched to show you some highlights.  Let’s get to it.

Ending in Epic Fashion With Elana

We started out as I said at Third Man Records and if you haven’t been there you need to go.  What an amazing place and they were pressing vinyl in the back while we were there.  Here’s one of the highlights!

Epic Fashion

And here’s some behind the scenes fun from Facebook…

We weren’t done with cool locales though…  next up was the venerable John K King Bookstore – the biggest in the state!  We have photographed there before and we love that place. 

Epic Fashion

Love!

Next we have more behind the scenes down at the riverfront in Detroit from Instagram…

Class Of 2023 Senior Petrina Perfects the Senior Picture Thing!

We were so happy when Petrina called us for senior pictures – she was here once before for a photo session with a crew of friends for Elona’s sweet 16 pics and she is a total sweetheart!  Not to mention she brought her cuz Patricia with her for a double senior session (Patricia was also at that first shoot) so we got to have double the fun – the Trina and Tricia Technicians show – as in Cass Tech Technicians!  More on that in the next post…  For now we focus on Petrina and her amazing pics, so let’s do this.

Petrina Perfects The Senior Picture Thing!

We have to give Petrina her props because it was cold.  Like really cold, and you would never know it – she was a total pro!  Let’s start at the DIA:

Petrina

And how about one of the cousins together…

BEAUTIES!!!

We have a little behind the scenes fun in a TikTok of some highlights too!

@frameablefaces Petrina perfects the #seniorpictures thing! 🥰🎓🏙️ #FrameableFaces #SeniorYear #ClassOf2023 #Photoshoot #photography #Photographer #MetroDetroit #Detroit ♬ original sound – Frameable Faces

We took a few pics at Cass Tech as well…
