In yesterday’s post Twinning and Winning – Part 1 – And We Ain’t Lyin’ About Ryann! we went all Ladies First with Ryann’s highlights with a twin pic of Ryann and Shane together mixed in. Today we reverse it and get on the Shane Train!!! Shane is a good dude and he was a trooper on these two days in Detroit taking all these pics with his sis! We had a great time with these two and here are more of the highlights!
On The Shane Train
We’ll start with one of our favorite mosaic murals in Eastern Market:
Looking good!!!
Here’s one from Belle Isle with a pretty cool composition – an angle we hadn’t used before:
We posted a photo from the cool ivy wall we found in Detroit yesterday of Ryann, and here’s some behind the scenes of that spot from Facebook Live:
And a result with Shane:
Pretty cool huh?
We grabbed this black and white on the Wayne State campus – big fans of how this one turned out:
Our last spot was by a very cool sculpture – also a somewhat random find… and here’s the behind the scenes from Instagram:
And we’ll leave you with one of those of the twins together!
Love them!
You can see why we weren’t lyin’ about Ryann yesterday and why we are on the Shane Train today!!! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our time with these two!!!

What an epic senior session(s) odyssey we embarked on with twins Ryann and Shane!!! In this post we’ll go ladies first – we love this girl and we ain’t lyin….about Ryann!!! What a sweetheart and the two of them are pretty hilarious together we have to say. Definitely a twin bond that you can feel. We’re going to focus on some individual photos of Ryann here and some individuals of Shane tomorrow but with one together in each post. These two are legacies too since we photographed older brother Ian from the class of 2019!
Twinning & Winning & ain’t lyin’ about Ryann…
We went to Detroit with these two – twice! The plan with their parents Faith and John was to make sure we had plenty of opportunities to get as many pics as we needed in as many spots as necessary with some of them individually and some together. We all felt that we didn’t want to be rushed, and this allowed us to break it up without going on a marathon day long shoot. So you’ll see some photos mixed in here from both days!
Here’s a little behind the scenes to give you a taste of the first day in Eastern Market before we get to a few higlights from Facebook Live:
Now some highlights of Ryann’s pics!
Just stunning!!! We had a decent amount of wind at that point but it works to nice effect on Ryann’s hair above! Lots of color in and around Eastern Market as well and Ryann Rocked it. Here’s another one…
Love the black on the black wall…
Here’s one from day two on a random ivy covered wall I just spotted as we were driving by…
Love it. That wall won’t be so random for us anymore!
And one more in this outfit on the Wayne State Campus which is really nice…
Now let’s bring Shane into the picture (pun intended) for this fun twin pic:
Awesome!!! Twinning and winning indeed and you can see we weren’t lyin’ about Ryann! We had so much fun with these two and we hope you enjoyed part 1 of the highlights! Part two is the next post!

We love Emma. She is just a burst of personality and total adorable-ness, and on top of that she’s clearly my spirit animal – we totally bonded over American history and that’s pretty much what we talked about while her mom Tara and Ally sat and watched during her consultation. We decided we’re going to go for coffee and talk about history one day lol! To that end, Emma had a plan for her love of books to be a part of her senior session and she had scoped out the venerable John K King Bookstore in Detroit as an essential locale in our plan – she even contacted the store where they were more than accommodating in letting us photograph there! This turned out to be the beginning of an EPIC day that ended up at our fave Chili Mustard Onions for dinner! So let’s get to what happened at the bookstore and more highlights in between as Emma Elevates the senior picture game!
Emma Elevates
John K King is a massive bookstore of used books that you MUST visit if you haven’t before. Here’s the behind the scenes Facebook LIVE broadcast where you can tell how giddy we were about photographing there!
And one of the results…
How beautiful! Emma looks amazing and it’s just such a cool photo that really captures a big part of who she is.
From there we headed over to Belle Isle where Emma and Tara had another great prop in store….
How fun is the bicycle and the flowers in the basket? The sky opened up right after this photo with a blast of rain as we scurried back to the car to wait it out. We just lucked out on that… it didn’t last long and it left behind a gorgeous rainbow in the sky.
We headed over to the edge of the island to get a skyline photo of Detroit and this one with the off-camera flash is awesome – it’s just more of Emma elevating…
Last but not least we headed over to Eastern Market for the murals and there’s a funny fruit mural Emma likes a lot so we used that one. Here’s the behind the scenes from Instagram LIVE (including a “Tara takeover” where Tara took over the broadcast)!
And here is the fun result!
Adorable!!!
And there you have it! Emma Elevates indeed – she slayed on this day! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Adin is a great dude and he has totally fit right in – we love hanging with this guy and we have been honored to have him representing our studio for the class of 2020 from Frankel Jewish Academy! When we photographed him for his spokesmodel session back in May he was solo, but this time for our trip to Detroit he had his mom Nancy join us and she’s a lot of fun! “Detroit Versus Everybody” is symbolic of how Detroit came back after many assumed the city was all but dead and now it’s thriving! We celebrate that when seniors say they want to head downtown for photos and we had a great day down there with Adin and Nancy so let’s get to some highlights!
Adin Versus Everybody!
We headed first to Belle Isle where we got one of the Detroit skyline poses that we love…
So cool!
We spent quite a bit of time on Belle Isle where there is much to see, including one of our favorite bridges:
What a pic – Adin looks GREAT.
We also headed to a cool bridge that we’ve used a few times and we have some behind the scenes action – first on Facebook:
…and the result:
We hit a couple more spots as well including this one along the Riverwalk – here’s some more behind the scenes this time from Instagram:
From there we headed over to the Belt alley to get a couple more to wrap it up and here’s a cool one with a mural as a backdrop:
Love it!
What a cool day – Adin versus everybody ladies and gentlemen! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Sydney slayed in the city! What a fabulous senior session in Detroit and the whole fam joined us down there – we had a lot of fun! Her parents and her little sis – David, Risa and Gabrielle are a riot! Sydney is a beautiful North Farmington Raider senior – inside and out from the class of 2020 and we are thrilled to present a few sneak peeks from our day with her!
Sydney In The City!
We started on Belle Isle in the morning and we had great weather conditions – let’s start at the fountain:
Such a cool pic and Sydney looks gorgeous!
We also played around with the skyline shot down by the Detroit River and here’s a little behind the scenes fun with the fam from Facebook Live:
And here are a couple other spots we love like the red bridge:
And the covered bridge…
We headed over to Eastern Market and then for a bite at Green Dot Stables before we headed back to the studio! Here’s a little more behind the scenes fun we had over by Eastern Market this time from Instagram Live:
At this point it was back to the studio for a few more and we went with the black and blowy…..and – wow!
So there you have it! Sydney in the city was a winning session indeed and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!!!

By now if you follow us on social media or subscribe to our newsletter there’s a pretty good chance you have caught the feature on Fox 2 Detroit that they did on us and boudoir photography. We have posted photos from the other two sessions highlighted in that piece here on the blog, and here is the third! Latoiya did a fantastic job in her interview and she looks lovely indeed in these photos! Boudoir photos are often done on location for privacy, but we did some in the studio for this feature and as you’ll see below the crew from Fox 2 was actually here while we photographed one. As a side note they ran this feature three times – the first time they misspelled Latoiya’s name which you’ll see here, but they actually corrected it when they ran it the next two times! Here is the feature before we get to the photos:
Latoiya Looks Lovely…
Meanwhile Latoiya mentioned in the piece about wondering if you’ve “lost it” after you’ve had kids and how boudoir can give you the confidence that you haven’t lost it at all – which she most certainly has not!!! She looks fabulous!
Beautiful!
Here’s a few more:
Latoiya looks lovely indeed – boudoir is fun, sexy and empowering! We love what Latoiya said at the end that “hopefully all women can see that it’s nothing to be ashamed of or looked down upon – that it’s to build us up!”

YES it’s time for the Class of 2020 Spokesmodel Panorama…..RAMA!!! This is our third annual post like this, and while these are NOT professional photos, they are a fun behind the scenes way of representing what we’ve been up to with our new crew over the last few months in panoramic style!

Now that we’ve completed all of our 10 spokesmodel sessions we can start rolling these things out – so fun! And what a great crew we have this year….

Dehko is on the rise and they were here in the studio for some updated headshots… If you like techno you need to get on these local DJ brothers Sam and Jordan who really bring it! Just having them here was hype enough – we had a blast with these guys!

Ava is a character and we are huge fans. We had so much fun with her, and her photos? OMG. She’s a pro – tons of style and sass and the day we spent with her and her mom Stacie whom we went to high school with was one we won’t soon forget! A great time in Detroit and we can’t wait to do it again on her senior session. We are pleased to have her representing our studio at Bloomfield Hills High School for the class of 2020! Let’s get to the photos…
All About Ava
Our plan was to go to Belle Isle first and this was where the adventure started… the ramp to get onto I-75 south from I-94 was closed so we ended up heading in the opposite direction which put us right by an industrial center where we have taken some images before so we figured while we were there we would get a few….
And wow. Right off the bat Ava was in the zone – what a gorgeous image.
After a little time there we headed back down to our original destination and…..they were setting up for the Grand Prix. Ugh! No worries – we still got our skyline image that has become popular for Detroit sessions and we have a little fun behind the scenes from our livestream on Facebook:
And here is the result:
Detroit and Ava vs. Everybody!
Next we headed over to Eastern Market to get a few photos on a particular wall that we love (after a lunch break at Chili Mustard Onions – YUM).
As you can imagine we had a really tough time narrowing down photos from this session… Ava looked fantastic!
We also have more behind the scenes this time from the livestream we did on Instagram!
Last but not least after bouncing around the D a little more we made it back to the studio for a few photos on the black backdrop (most of our seniors do a combination of studio and location for their sessions) and we’ll leave you with this stunner…
Great one to end on! We were all about Ava that day indeed and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

What a year (so far) it’s been for our Class of 2019 seniors! We decided to go back for the first time and create an EPIC recap video of the best of the Class of 2019 Senior Snapchat Stories for you! We know not everyone has Snapchat, and even if they do they may not have caught all of our stories throughout the senior season so here we go…
The Class of 2019 Senior Snapchat Stories
This video makes us smile the whole way through – it’s about 15 minutes long and includes everyone we shared highlights of publicly throughout – from Detroit to Ann Arbor, Pontiac to New York, summer, fall and winter, with plenty of wildlife, laughs, squad selfies and other shenanigans – but most of all our SENIORS!!! We love these young people and there are still more of them to come so there will likely be a part 2…
Enjoy!
