We met the G family relatively recently when their oldest son became friends with our little guy. The boys became friends and then we followed suit pretty quickly afterwards!

It’s been kind of a whirlwind, really. You know how there are people who once you connect with them, it’s like you’ve always known them and been friends with them? Yeah, that’s us and these guys! R had mentioned that she’d really like a nice new updated family photo and some nice ones of the boys together. She was a little bit worried that since we’ve become so close, the boys wouldn’t take it seriously and do it the way that she’d like. BUT, truth be told, the boys totally rocked it and I’m pretty sure they had fun doing it, too! We were able to capture some amazing real, natural smiles, some sweet tender moments and had a little bit of fun mixed up in there, too.

This is one of the reasons we love our job. The look on R’s face when we showed her some of these images was priceless. These guys really do have a heart of gold! <3

Frameable Fun with the G’s!

We’ve been photographing this family since before they were a family! M was one of Ally’s first subjects when she went back to school to study photography. They’re like family to us here and we always welcome a session with them whenever they ask. The fact that they’re insanely photogenic doesn’t hurt either!!

The “reason” behind the timing of this photo session was that “R” was getting braces the very next day, and M and T wanted a fun family photo session before she got them. 🙂

Ally loved getting some of the fun “interactive” poses with T and B and the sweet, loving mom and daughter poses with M and R, too. But when the kids got together in their poses, everyone ended up collapsing with laughter. Those two could have each other in a headlock one second and pull out the best, most amazing expressions in the next. They’re just like our own kids – laughing and smiling in one moment but then they’ll switch modes on a dime and push each others buttons in the next! The G family is one that we’ll claim as our own….whenever we’re around these guys, laughs are abundant, fun is obvious and great times are had!

Frameable Faces – What’s In A Name?

For some time Ally went by “Allyson Cohen Photography” before changing the name to Frameable Faces Photography. At the risk of sounding a little corny, Frameable Faces for us genuinely means many things and we thought we would share…

Community

It’s not just about Ally which is one of the reasons the change was made in the first place. Frameable Faces is a place – it’s a physical studio and a business true, but it only works

because it’s more than that. It is really a community – all of you! The smiling and frameable faces of the people who pass in front of Ally’s lens make up Frameable Faces Photography. You are all a part of it and it wouldn’t exist without you. You ARE the frameable faces.

Lifestyle

Sure we take pictures and capture memories here, but we try to promote the idea that being “frameable” is an attitude and even a lifestyle. People are here because they live life to the fullest – otherwise they wouldn’t be looking to have it photographed. Sometimes people walk through our doors hesitantly – they don’t think they are photogenic. Those people deserve a lot of credit for overcoming their doubts and getting in front of the camera, and they end up discovering how frameable they really are. Is your attitude, your family, your life, your smile, your face worth displaying on a wall (or on a purse or in an album)?

Fun

We think the name is fun. It makes us smile, and taking pictures should be fun. We even think our little flower in the logo is fun (don’t ask us how it evolved into our little trademark symbol because we’re not really sure – but it seems to fit). We enjoy meeting so many wonderful people and getting to know our peeps, staying in touch, watching their children grow and celebrating life’s milestones. Sometimes it’s downright hilarious (like when a newborn baby poops on Ally).

So there you have it. Yep – it’s sugary sweet but it is what it is!

How much cuter can you get??

On Friday, I was super lucky to work with A and T. When they walked into the studio, I was SO excited to photograph them for their Christmas cards. What absolutely gorgeous children! And what little personalities. A is a little mommy – very sweet to her little brother, and T was making me laugh the entire time! What a little ham!

I love when my sessions are like this! Sweet kiddos, fun parents. I love my job!

Until next time,
Ally
