You’ve heard of Syd Vicious? Well say hello to Syd-licious! We can call her that because we’ve known her since she was in Kindergarten with our Tony and now she’s a beautiful smart, nice, funny young lady!!! Weird how that happens. She’s been in front of Ally’s camera before…..a DECADE ago!
Exhibit A:
She was sooo cute!!!
…and now she’s gorgeous!
Syd-Licious
We had such a great day with Syd, her mom Bec and little sister Hayden! Like old times.
We also have some fun behind the scenes for you first from the Instagram Live replay!
Here’s another highlight using the tree…
Love it!!!
We have one more in the white tank…
Adorable.
At this point we did another outfit change and we have more behind the scenes fun coming at you from the Facebook Live broadcast:
And we’ll leave you with one more highlight – LOVE this one:
Great one to finish on with Syd! We love this girl and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

We love this kid – he’s been a buddy of our Tony for years and he’s a great kid – and he’s a character in a good way. Thinking about him can make us smile – Elan epitomizes character, as in he has it and he IS it! We’ve spent plenty of time with his mom Julie over the years too – in the bleachers at swim meets, football games and even in her chair at her office (she’s our dentist)! These guys were the first to call us for the class of 2019 so we had this on our radar and our calendar for a long time and we had fun…!!!
Elan Epitomizes Character…
We did a combo of studio and location work with Elan and we’ll start in the studio:
Now that’s a dapper dude…
We also have some fun behind the scenes action – first with the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:
At this point we headed out on location for a few – first with a cool textured wall that we like, and some photos just look good in black and white like this one!
Next we wanted some natural settings so we’ll finish with these:
Digging the flannel!
We also have the behind the scenes Snapchat story for you here with a few fun filters too…
And we’ll leave you with one more up close and personal!
And there you have it! Elan epitomizes character and it comes through in the photos! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

It was advantage Donovan for sure as he totally dominated the game on his senior session on a perfect August day! We’ve known “Big D” as we’ve always called him since he and our Tony were kindergartners at Doherty about a dozen years ago, and Donovan and his little sis Camie were actually in the window of our studio here when we first opened! Love this family and Donovan’s mom whom I’ve always called “Downtown Julie Brown” and Camie both joined us on Donovan’s session! His dad Steve was home sleeping (that’s a little inside joke). As a matter of fact we did a CAMIE TAKEOVER on all the behind the scenes which is pretty much the cutest thing ever, so yes this was one to remember.
Advantage Donovan
We started on the tennis courts at Bloomfield Hills High School where Donovan plays on the team, and his serve is like a cannon shot… We also started the Camie takeover here BUT *****CAUTION***** this is the only behind the scenes that you may not be able to really get through because Facebook Creator was really glitchy this time and we didn’t know until afterward. The audio is okay but you may want to skip further down to the Snapchat story and the Instagram Live. Our apologies on that – so let’s get it out of the way….
Now here is the tennis result:
Looking good!
Next we moved on to some natural settings and got some great stuff…
And now for the best of the Camie takeover – the Snapchat Story! This is so fun!
Here’s one more from one of our locations:
What a stud!
At this point it was time to head back to the studio and we fired up the Instagram Live:
And here’s dapper Donovan with the suit and tie look!
And there you have it! Advantage Donovan indeed and we hope you enjoyed the highlights from our day with him!

Kilowatts are units of energy and it’s an appropriate word to describe the awesomeness that is Kaitlyn. She’s a bundle of infectious personality and energy and we just LOVE her. We’ve said this before but we’ll say it again – she’s one of our all time favorite people and we couldn’t think of anyone better to photograph on Ally’s birthday! Kaitlyn and her mom Sara even brought us Yummy Cupcakes to celebrate!
What’s funny is the timing of this has me (Doug) writing this on MY birthday which has me smiling too! Kaitlyn is representing our studio this year as a spokesmodel at Bloomfield Hills High School at our son Tony’s suggestion and he was spot on with that recommendation. We had an epic spokesmodel session with Kaitlyn in Detroit and we couldn’t wait to get her in front of Ally’s camera again! But could we top it??? A million kilowatts of awesomeness with Kaitlyn would suggest a resounding YES!!!
A Million Kilowatts Of Awesomeness With Kaitlyn
The last time Katilyn was here we got some studio stuff along with the Detroit pics and this time we decided to spend all of our quality time outside for some natural scenery – of course we upped the ante a bit which we’ll get to but we’ll start in the meadow:
So beautiful with the pop of color!
We also have some behind the scenes fun starting with the Instagram Live replay where you can see I had a little fun with Sara – and who by the way is totally delightful which comes as no surprise as Kaitlyn’s mom.
As a little bonus here is a bit of twitter trolling from the video above… hehe….
LOL.
At this point it was time to add some KILOWATTS OF AWESOMENESS to the session.
Wow.
And if that weren’t enough, we finished with Kaitlyn IN the water!!! First here is the behind the scenes replay of the Facebook Live broadcast:
And now….. well we’ll let these speak for themselves.
Just stunning!
One of our favorite sessions ever. We’re going to include the Snapchat Story here too while we’re at it:
So there you go… such a wonderful day and fantastic session. A million kilowatts of awesomeness with Kaitlyn! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Yes Jenna generated some magic on her senior session – that’s for sure… We’ve known Jenna for a long time and she’s a legacy here at Frameable Faces since we photographed her brother Noah a couple years ago! We had a great day for it and we went for a combo of studio and nature and the results are, well, magical!
Jenna Generated Some Magic
Jenna’s mom Susan came along and we had a blast. We started on location to make sure we beat some possible rain in the forecast and the weather actually worked out totally in our favor. Let’s start on location:
So pretty!!! We mainly stayed on the West Bloomfield side of town in some natural settings and we have a little fun behind the scenes from Facebook Live for you:
Here’s another from outside…
Wow….
At this point we headed back to the studio to get a few indoor photos and the magic didn’t stop:
Adorable!
We also have the Snapchat story with some highlights from the whole session before we leave you with one more pic!
And we’ll end with this black and white closeup:
You’ll agree that Jenna generated some magic right? Indeed. We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

We were totally taken with Tia indeed on her senior session. From the moment she came to the studio in a whirlwind with her mom Ban we were impressed. Sharp, mature, personable, beautiful – the whole package! They found us with a Google search, called, came right over, and less than a week later we were taking pictures! It all happened very fast and it just worked – we connected.
Totally Taken With Tia
We started in the studio with a few outfits and backgrounds before we headed out on location to Birmingham accompanied by Ban and Tia’s older sis Tara who did Tia’s makeup! We’ll start with the studio photos first:
We will always love our “black and blowy” setup and Tia rocked it!
We also have some fun behind the scenes action for you starting with the raw feed from our Instagram LIVE video in the studio!
And here is one on the white background with the red outfit from the livestream…
Love the ‘tude! The girl was slaying!
At this point we headed out on location to get some summer looks at Quarton Lake. We’ll start with this one in the flowery dress with a few black-eyed susans in the background:
Gorgeous.
We have more behind the scenes here this time from Facebook Live!
And we’ll leave you with this fun photo on the dock…
Love it!!!!
You can clearly see how we were totally taken with Tia! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Yes Ethan evoked a relaxed and enjoyable vibe on his senior session! A soft spoken and nice guy, Ethan came with his mom Jodi on a nice day with a little cloud cover for some location photos around town and we had a good time! We hadn’t met before they came to us, but it turned out that we had plenty of mutual connections and we actually photographed Ethan’s cousins for their senior pics!
Ethan Evoked a Relaxed and Enjoyable Vibe
Before we headed outside we started in the studio for a bit and got a few formal photos – Ethan was looking sharp and that’s where we’ll start:
Looking good!
We didn’t stay in the studio for long and now we’ll take a look at some of the location photos. We also have a little fun behind the scenes for you from the Facebook Live replay first:
And here is one of the results!
Just chillin’ right? Ethan did a fine job.
Let’s look at another one against this cool looking metal surface:
Nice.
We also have a little more behind the scenes this time with the footage from our Instagram Live:
And we’ll leave you with one more highlight from this last part of the session!
And there you have it! Ethan evoked a relaxed and enjoyable vibe for sure and we hope you liked the highlights of our day with him!

Here we go with the Class of 2019 Spokesmodel Panorama…..RAMA!!! We did this last year and this is just our fun way of stacking these behind the scenes iPhone panoramic photos that Doug took during our spokesmodel sessions. There’s something cool about the way the scope of a panoramic photo can capture and distort a scene in a weird and wonderful way! These are not “professional” photos by any stretch and are not meant to be taken too seriously, but they are a fun way to recap our last few months with our Class of 2019 crew as we head into senior season!
This year’s sessions took us to the usual haunts as well as a new one or two… burned out buildings, majestic theaters, trails and parks, and of course the Frameable Faces studio! We have such an outstanding team representing us this year for the class of 2019 and so in no particular order, here is your panorama…..RAMA!

Whooo hooo!!! Another fun Panorama…..RAMA! We hope you enjoyed these!

So far we have highlighted 8 – count ’em – 8 senior spokesmodel GIRLS from the upcoming class of 2019. So now it’s time for the 2019 spokesmodel GUYS – Josh and Tony who are buds and bad dudes. Today the focus is on Josh who is a Walled Lake Central Viking, a lacrosse player and potentially a future attorney…
We had a pretty hilarious and productive day with Josh and his mom Amy and we got some great photos indoors and on location so let’s get to ’em!
2019 Spokesmodel Guys – Josh
We started on location in the morning. Morning sessions begin outside while the sun is lower in the sky… Here’s a simple seated photo of our guy…
At this point we relocated and went live on Instagram for some behind the scenes fun! Here’s the replay from our YouTube channel!
And here’s a close up result:
Handsome dude!
Back to the studio…
Now it was time to get SERIOUS…. Suit and tie time!!! We often photograph our formal guys on the grey paper – we just like the way it looks.
At this point we went live again – this time on Facebook for some more behind the scenes:
And we’ll leave you with the photo that could be the consensus favorite – lol…
How great is that?
Josh was a great jump-off point for the class of 2019 spokesmodel guys! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our morning with him. Tony will close it out next….

Chloe is the third senior we’ve “borrowed” (hehe) from this family to put in front of Ally’s camera after sisters Alayna & Emily, but the third time is a charm since she’s the first spokesmodel from this fam! All these girls are delightful so it’s not a surprise that Chloe is carrying on the tradition so well, it’s just cool that we get to photograph her twice! Today we’re highlighting a few images from her spokesmodel session and the great day we had with her and her mom Krista as she represents the Birmingham Groves class of 2019!
Third Time’s A Charm….Named Chloe
We wanted to get a few photos in the studio first so we went with the black and blowy which we are doing with every spokesmodel…
Love that…
Next we broke out our pink backdrop which usually makes a couple of appearances in each senior class and we have some fun behind the scenes on this one from Facebook Live!
And here’s a pink pic:
Yassssss.
At this point we headed outside – first to one of our favorite nature preserves for a few photos on a set of flat rocks we call “The Slab”:
And we have more behind the scenes fun from this part of the session from our Instagram Live – this is the raw video without comments from our YouTube Channel.
The last photo we’ll share was at the end of the session and involved a little adventure – a passerby suggested we walk about a “fifth” of a mile down the pathway to a “decking” with a great view. It was more like a mile, we wouldn’t say it was a “decking” even though we’re not totally sure what a “decking” is supposed to be, and it wasn’t much of a view. We were a little salty. BUT – we still got a couple of amazing photos on the trail and this one is definitely one of our favorites from the day!!!
Wowsers! Just stunning….
And that’s a great one to finish with! The third time was definitely a charm with Chloe and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

We will always love our “black and blowy” setup and Tia rocked it!
Gorgeous.
