Getting To Know Nadia On A Nice Fall Day In Michigan!

by
No Comments

We love getting to know our seniors and on a nice fall day with those Pure Michigan colors outside we got to know Nadia a little better on her senior session!  She’s a total sweetheart – and what better day to photograph her than on her birthday!!!  Nadia’s mom Cherish joined us as well and we had a lot of fun with her too as you’ll see in a sec.  Meanwhile it was a little chilly that day (although that’s all mental as we like to remind our seniors – ha) but the conditions were still just fine for photos and we focused on location shots so let’s get to ’em:

This is definitely our first hunting bow – pretty cool.

Lo and Behold It’s Logan and His Killer Senior Session!

by
No Comments

Lo and behold it’s Logan!  One of those surreal sessions for us since we’ve known this dude since he was a baby… he’s also a legacy here since his big sis Aria was one of our seniors last year (not to mention little sis Sedona had a Frameable bat mitzvah too) and this fam is one we’re very close with so this made for a fun one!

Lo and behold it’s Logan!

Meanwhile we were rained out twice for the location part of his session which was really the majority of what we had planned so we broke it up into two different days.  Logan’s mom Rachel came along and she and Ally did plenty of giggling getting Logan to laugh and smile…hehe…  So let’s start with a studio shot on day one:

Logan

Bad dude.

We also have some fun behind the scenes action starting with the replay of the Facebook Live broadcast from the studio:

Now let’s pick up the action on day 2 on location with some “Pure Michigan” colors!

Logan

Looking good!

For the behind the scenes on the location shoot we go to the snap story from Snapchat since there were some funny moments there…. lol!

And a couple more results:

Logan

How about that awesome Pure Michigan Color as a backdrop!!!

And we’ll leave you with one more…

Logan

And there you have it – lo and behold we made it happen with Logan even if we had to split up the session!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights!

Zak Is Back And In The Zone On His Senior Picture Session!

by
No Comments

Zak is back and in the zone for senior pictures!  We say he’s back because he’s been here a couple times before – most recently on his spokesmodel session representing the class of 2018!  This time around with his mom Dena we went exclusively with on location photos and we got some great stuff…. 

Zak is back…

We started on Zak’s home golf course – home course for the Orchard Lake St. Mary’s golf team that is and with the fall colors coming in in the background we started with this one…

Zak Is Back

Fore!  Looking good!

We also have some behind the scenes for you here – this time we’re going to start with the Snap story from Snapchat which is a lot of fun!

While we were at the golf course Ally spied some steps she wanted to use and we got Zak in mid giggle here – he’s a good kid and Ally loves to mess with him.

Zak Is Back

Next we switched locations and brought out the 1970 Cuda!  So cool!

Zak Is Back

And here is some more behind the scenes from that shot from the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:

And we’ll leave you with one more shot:

Zak Is Back

Zak is the man!

And there you have it!  Zak is back and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Sarah’s Stunning Senior Session In And Around Detroit!

by
No Comments

Senior sessions in and around Detroit always get us excited – there’s just such a buzz around the city and so much to photograph!  It’s even better when we have a senior who is down for some fun with personality, style, and the whole fam!  Yep Sarah’s parents and older sister came along and we all had a great time!  Sarah is a sweetheart and we are pleased to present the highlights of our day with her!

Sarah Around Detroit!

We started on Belle Isle which is how we typically roll – it’s a great location with all kinds of spots to discover – we’ll pick up the action there:

Around Detroit

Love that, and love the aesthetically pleasing match of Sarah’s top to the brick around her!

We also have some fun behind the scenes for you as we usually do – first with the replay of the YouTube Live broadcast at Belle Isle:

Here’s a photo now of Sarah over by the conservatory where we found plenty of flowers to play with – and why not with Sarah’s flowery dress!

Around Detroit

At this point we left the island to head over to The Belt where there are fun murals to play with, and we captured this fun photo:

Around Detroit

So cool with all the colors, and here is the behind the scenes this time from the Facebook Live broadcast replay!

Back to the studio…

At this point it was time to get back to the studio for our signature “black and blowy” setup and we’ll leave you with one of those:

Around Detroit

Um……stunning!!!

And there you have it!  A stunning session with Sarah in and around Detroit and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day!

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!
