Twin Senior Spokesmodels! Part 1: Sydney Slays The Game!

Twin senior spokesmodels are either double trouble or twice as nice depending on how you look at it right?  Hehe…  Well in this case these two girls couldn’t be sweeter so we’ll go with twice as nice!  Sydney and Sasha are rising seniors in the class of 2023 at Novi High School and first up is Sydney!  We’ve known their parents for quite some time and it is indeed hard to believe they are going to be seniors!  The girls’ mom Danielle joined us for the proceedings and we’ll consider this Part 1 as Sydney takes center stage and slays the game as we like to say!

Twin Senior Spokesmodels – Sydney!

So let’s get to some highlights!  We’ve got some in the studio and some on location – our seniors often do a combination of both!

Okay she’s adorable – love the Converse shoes with that outfit!

Here’s one more from the studio:

Love the match of the green shades there!

We also have some fun behind the scenes with the girls together from Facebook here (and from Instagram on the upcoming part 2)!

Here’s a result from that set…
 
Twin Senior Spokesmodels
Extreme cuteness together with sister Sasha!
 
At this point we headed out to Quarton Lake where there were baby geese and ducks all around – a beautiful day…
 
Sydney was slaying indeed at this point…  Shout out as well to Haley Cassar on makeup!
 
And we’ll leave you with this last one!
 
Wow.
 
Yes it was a great day with great spokesmodels and great results!  We are so excited for the class of 2023 – senior sessions are right around the corner – and we hope you enjoyed Part 1 of the highlights of our day with Sydney and Sasha (who is up next)!

Sara Is A STAR And We’re Here For It With Her Spokesmodel Session!

Sara is a star indeed – very comfortable in front of the camera and we’re big fans!  She just oozes charisma, and she’s nice, smart – all the things!  Okay we’re gushing but it is what it is, and she’s a North Farmington Raider to boot just like us!  We went to Detroit with Sara for some spokesmodel pics as she is representing our studio for the class of 2023 and the results are epic.  Let’s get to the highlights!

Sara is a star

Our first stop….well, we may keep where the first stop was to ourselves hehe….

Sara

WOW right?  A beautiful flower among the beautiful flowers!

Next we have a couple from Belle Isle – love this one…

Sara

A Second Time Around With Sasha For Senior Pics In Detroit!

The second time around with Sasha was as memorable as we knew it would be.  This future Arizona Wildcat has style to burn and she represented our studio for the class of 2022 as a spokesmodel for Frankel Jewish Academy in grand fashion!  We love this girl and her mom Kristine and we were looking forward to getting her in front of Ally’s camera again!  We spent the whole session in Detroit and Sasha slayed – of course…!  Let’s get to some highlights.

A Second Time Around With Sasha

We spent a lot of time in and around Eastern Market and here’s a fantastic highlight to kick it off…

Second Time Around

LOVE IT.  That gate is cool.

Second Time Around

And there are endless murals… and Sasha knew how to pick ’em.

We went a little “post-apocalyptic” on the next stop and here’s some behind the scenes from Facebook:

And the result:

Second Time Around

We love that shot!

We have some more fun behind the scenes from Eastern Market before we headed over to the DIA this time from Instagram:

Merrick Makes It Happen On His Senior Spokesmodel Session!

Merrick makes it happen – in general.  He’s an accomplished kid – a solid student athlete at the Frankel Jewish Academy and this is not the first time he has been in front of Ally’s camera… he and lil’ sis Sydney were here for portraits when they were little – our families go back a very long way to when I was little myself!  But we’re here to talk about the class of 2023 and senior pictures and Merrick is representing our studio, so let’s get to a few highlights!

Merrick Makes It Happen

We started on location on a beautiful sunny morning – our seniors have the option of photographing in the studio AND on location, and if we start in the morning it’s always on location first.  If there is sun we want it lower in the sky.

Merrick

Looking good Merrick!

Oh, and Jax the pup got into the act.  Lots of seniors like to bring a pet!

Merrick

Of course we have some fun behind the scenes first from Instagram:

And the result!

Merrick

AWESOME!!!

Yes senior season is just about here – we’re looking forward to getting Merrick in front of Ally’s camera again for his senior pics and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with him!

Everything Was Coming Up Roses With Rose on Her Spokesmodel Session!

We became instant fans of Rose – it didn’t take long.  Actually we’re fans of Rose and her mom Sharyn whom we recently did a headshot for and we were with Rose at the BBYO Building Entrepreneurship event recently so we’ve become fast friends!  Rose is a character in the best way – she’s funny – and she’s smart, adorable, dynamic – all the things!  We’re thrilled to have her representing our studio for the rising high school class of 2023 at Walled Lake Northern!

Coming Up Roses

We spent a gorgeous day in Birmingham for her spokesmodel session which has always been a popular spot for our seniors, so let’s get to a few highlights shall we?

Coming Up Roses

Yes!  This was a new spot and angle for Ally and Rose nailed it.  We also need to give a shout out to our neighbors in the mall The Beauty Lounge for Rose’s hair and makeup!

Next we changed spots and outfits (our seniors typically change outfits several times for senior sessions) and we fired up the Facebook Live for a little behind the scenes fun!

And here’s the result!

Coming Up Roses

Gorgeous girl!

Another outfit change and….wow.

Coming Up Roses

This was the one that got Sharyn…  a really sweet moment when mom got emotional over her baby looking so beautiful.  I grabbed a pic with the iPhone…

Gets us in the feels…

Okay back to some more behind the scenes fun this time from Instagram:

Oh but we’re not done… we have a little bonus…
 
Rose was posing for this next pic when THE most adorable little photobomber decided to join us – we asked and her mom said yes, so here you go!
 
 
Everything was coming up Roses indeed – Rose was making friends!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her as we look forward to the fast approaching senior season – we can’t wait to get her in front of Ally’s camera again!

Building Entrepreneurship With BBYO In Detroit!

Building Entrepreneurship is a BBYO program that we were honored to participate in recently in Detroit!  BBYO is the leading pluralistic Jewish teen movement aspiring to involve more Jewish teens in more meaningful Jewish experiences, and both of our kids were very active in it while they were in high school.  We love to give back and anytime we can tell our story and mentor young people about business and careers we are game!

Building Entrepreneurship!

Ally did most of the presenting to this crew of young ladies at the Hilton Garden Inn in Detroit where I grabbed this pano of the room (with my iPhone)…

Building Entrepreneurship

We always think it’s important to get young people to start thinking about viewing the world from a business standpoint – even if it’s just in terms of following your passion and looking at the social media platforms they are already on from a marketing and career standpoint.  Follow the brands and professions you like on Instagram for example in addition to your friends!  See how they operate, how they communicate to their communities.  It’s easy to learn plenty even if you aren’t sure what you want to do with your life!

After we told the story of Frameable Faces with some tips about how we grew the business and some advice mixed in we took a couple of fun group photos… 

First with smiles…

Building Entrepreneurship

And then with some silliness… hehe…

Building Entrepreneurship

All in all it was a great experience for us with this fantastic group!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with them!

Her Royal Highness Princess Pinky Girl Graces The Studio!

Princess Pinky Girl herself (aka Jenn Fishkind) came to the studio for some updated photos for her website and we had a blast!  Jenn has really grown her brand with almost 5 million followers on her Pinterest page and a huge following of the fun, yummy and easy recipes at her blog.  You should check out her website and subscribe to her email newsletter – like immediately.  The girl knows a little something about branding so we were honored that she chose us to take hers to yet another level! 

Meanwhile this was such a fun session with candy, cupcakes and even a candy crown courtesy of our friend on the East Coast Ms. Candy Blog, and Jenn crushed it – she looked fabulous and we laughed a whole lot….  let’s get to a few highlights!

Her Royal Highness – Princess Pinky Girl! 

Princess Pinky Girl

Okay she’s adorable…

We have some fun behind the scenes from the session too – first from Facebook:

And we’re just bubbling over with joy over this next one…

Princess Pinky Girl

See what we did there…?

At this point we headed over to LaFata Cabinets here at the Orchard Mall – they’re our neighbors and they have a beautiful showroom!  A big thank you to them for letting us use their store!

Here’s a little more behind the scenes this time from Instagram over at Lafata Cabinets:

Theo Turned One And Had A (Cake) Smashing Good Time Celebrating!

Turning one is pretty cool.  Theo should know – he just did it.  And he brought his brothers and parents to the studio to celebrate the milestone with some portraits – and some balloons – and a CAKE SMASH (which by the way wasn’t the first time for this family)!  Let’s take a look at a few of the highlights shall we?

Theo

That’s a happy dude!

Now let’s bring in the big bros!

Theo

One more of the main man before we get to the smash…

Theo

Now here we’ve got some behind the scenes from the cake smash on Facebook:

And the yummy result!

Theo

That face!!!

Well there you have it – a smashing good time with Theo indeed!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights!

Kollyns Is The Most Adorable Almost 6 Month Old We Know!

Melyssa was once known (and still is as far as we’re concerned) as the “Frameable Faces Fairy” and she’s a legend here!  She and her family have become friends of ours over the years (here’s a throwback to a session of Melyssa and her sisters) and she recently brought her THIRD child to the studio – almost-6-month-old Kollyns!  Hard for us to believe!  And Kollyns is such an adorable smush.  We loved having her here and we need to show you these highlights!

Kollyns is adorable

Simple and scrumptious – we’re going to let these photos mostly speak for themselves.

Kollyns

That smile!!!

Kollyns

She’s awesome.  We also have a little fun behind the scenes from Facebook:

And these next two are the end…
Kollyns
Hehe…..
Kollyns
LOVE!  Kollyns is delicious and we hope you enjoyed this little taste of her session!
