Sophia Starts Us Off For The Class Of 2023 Spokesmodels!

Sophia starts things off for the class of 2023!  We are so excited to say that!  We love our high school seniors and we love when we get to start photographing our new crew of rising seniors for the upcoming season that typically gets underway in the summer.

We are particularly thrilled to have Sophia representing us because she is a legacy – her sister Ava crushed it as a senior for us also representing Bloomfield Hills High School just a couple years ago so we are happy to be hanging with these peeps again – especially Sophia’s mom Stacie whom we adore and go way back with.

Sophia Starts Us Off!

Spring hasn’t totally sprung yet and it was a little chilly for this day but we still managed to get outside for a bit.  But first let’s focus on the studio pics including this one with the red gel casting that color around the edges of Sophia’s hair!

Cool right?  We’ll see if the gels make a comeback this year!

We also have some fun behind the scenes first from Facebook:

And here’s one more with an outfit change in the studio:

Sophia Starts

Gorgeous girl!

At this point we headed outside and that is pretty typical for our seniors – multiple outfits, multiple spots including studio and location, but we always meet ahead of time to plan it all out and strategize.

A little off camera flash and voila!  

One more location switch and here’s some more behind the scenes this time from Instagram:

All About Ava And Her Amazing Senior Spokesmodel Session!

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….

Ava

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:
 
Ava
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).
 
Ava
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
 
Ava
 
 
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!

A-lovin’ Havin’ Alivia Represent Frameable Faces As A Spokesmodel!

Ahhh Spring is finally (kinda) in the air here in Michigan and we were able to get outside for a class of 2020 spokesmodel session!  Couldn’t be more pleased to do that with Alivia who is adorable, an athlete, and a Bloomfield Hills Blackhawk!!!  We’ve gotten to know some of this fam over the last couple years at BHHS as our son Tony has been a football teammate of both of her brothers, and her parents are great – her mom Rhonda joined us on the session and she is a delight.  We did a little bit in the studio as well as on location for this session so let’s get to a few highlights shall we?

A’Lovin’ Alivia

 We started out in the studio on the black background to get some blowy 🌬 and some fiery 🔥 and well, wow.  Alivia just crushed it.  Here’s the setup with the fun behind the scenes livestream on Facebook Live – click on this and get a little chuckle… and be sure to give our page a “like”!

Here’s the awesome fiery result:

Alivia

Okay that is bad ass.

At this point we headed on location and this is quite typical of our seniors where we’ll spend some time on a session in the studio AND on location – both options are included in our session fee at no additional charge with the exception of longer distances such as Detroit or Ann Arbor (also very popular).

As for Alivia, we love this closeup of her – a natural beauty!

Alivia

Whoa!  Beautiful.

Alivia changed outfits too – how about some pretty in pink?

Alivia

 

We also have some fun behind the scenes from our livestream on Instagram which you can click and see below – Alivia is just such a natural on camera!

 

And we’ll leave you with this one with the brick.  Sometimes the breeze gives you a perfect lift!

Alivia

And there you have it!  A’lovin’ Alivia indeed – we are thrilled to have her as part of our crew!  We hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Katie Krushed Her Spokesmodel Studio Session for the Class of 2020!

Katie Krushed it!  Yes she indeedy did, and we were so excited to have her here – we’ve known Katie as we said during the livestream since she was “pre-Katie”!!!  In the womb LOL….  Katie’s parents Kelly and Tim are dear friends of ours so the surrealness continues and this time was a pretty cool first because Katie is leading the way as our very first Clarkston Wolf spokesmodel!  The weather hadn’t quite warmed up yet and we still had a new studio backdrop to play with so we stayed indoors for this one.  Let’s get to the highlights:

Katie Krushed It

We started out on the grey fabric which we’ve actually had for a while but it seems to have been a while since we’ve used it so…

Katie Krushed

Love the fun full length with the ripped jeans!

We also have some fun behind the scenes action first from the Instagram Live broadcast as we went with the new green polka dot backdrop which we really like!

And here is the result:

Katie Krushed

Gorgeous!!!  And just love the colors.

Next we broke out the red Victorian couch and the damask backdrop to go with a dress that actually kind of matched and it looks so cool!

Katie Krushed

Here’s more behind the scenes from this setup this time from the Facebook Live broadcast!

The last one we’ll leave you with is the black with just a little blowy… one of our classic moves:

Katie Krushed

Love the color and those eyes on that girl!

And there you have it – Katie Krushed it indeed and we hope you liked the highlights – an awesome first for the Clarkston Wolves!

Doin’ The Spokesmodeling Thing For The Class of 2020 With Dana!

Here we are rolling along into the class of 2020 spokesmodel sessions and we’re staying at Walled Lake Northern for this one as we say hello to Dana!!!  Dana is a legacy since her older brother Nick had one of the most epic senior sessions of all time, so we are thrilled to have her and her awesome mom Paola back to the studio!  Dana is totes adorbs and we had some more new backdrops to play with so let’s get to it…

Doin’ The Spokesmodeling Thing With Dana!

We started out with this very cool distressed wood backdrop and Dana rocked it – love her outfit choices too – there are no major rules on that.  It’s all about what you like and your style! 

Dana

Beautiful!

We also have some fun behind the scenes from our time with Dana and Paola – first from Facebook Live:

And here is the result from the pink damask with the floor setup – we love the way this turned out!

Dana

Love!

Next we have this mottled olive which also looks fantastic!

Dana

Dana is adorable.

We have some more behind the scenes too and this one was fun on Instagram Live as one of our spokesmodels from the class of 2014 Emily Brent showed up in the livestream – Emily was Dana’s camp counselor!  So fun – Dana’s reaction is priceless!

And here is the result we’ll leave you with on the fiery red fabric backdrop…

Dana

And there you have it!  The class of 2020 is already rocking it and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our session with Dana!

Senior Spokesmodeling With Sedona to Kickoff The Class of 2020!

It’s that time of year when we start photographing our new spokesmodel crew and it’s weird to say that the Class of 2020 is on its way!  Wow…  This is always a fun time for us because this is our team that we assemble each year to represent our studio and what better way to start it off than with Sedona whom we’ve known pretty much her whole life and some new backdrops in the studio!

Sedona Kicks of the 2020 Spokesmodels…

This isn’t Sedona’s first time on this blog either – we (our event photographer Angela) photographed her bat mitzvah a few years back and man does time fly.  She did a fantastic job on this session and she’ll be representing us at Walled Lake Northern High School.  So let’s get to the photos shall we?

2020

This is the first of three backdrops we used for the first time on this day and we love the olive earth tones here with the burnt orange top – Sedona looks awesome!

We also have some behind the scenes fun too – we like for you to see how these go and catch the vibe if you will – we have fun here!  If you’re not having a little fun then what’s the point right?  First we have the Instagram Live replay…

Now let’s take a look at a couple more backdrops and outfits!

2020

So cute!  Ripped jeans, barn door – got a little of that rustic country feel going!  Love the way that looks.

2020

That white-washed wood is another new one and Sedona was slaying the game at this point!

Let’s get in one more behind the scenes vid for a little more fun this time from our Facebook Live:

We’ll leave you with this one on our black backdrop:

2020

Just a nice simple pose to finish it off – Sedona is a rockstar!  And there you have it!  Look for more spokesmodels coming your way over the next couple of months – we are so excited for the 2020 crew!

Fun, Fire, Flash and a Little Football!

Every senior session has a story…

For this session we tested out a new light for an idea we had for a night time shoot.  We ended up getting the shot but we almost didn’t.  We needed bleachers at the end of the session and we struck out on the first two high school stadiums we went to.  At the first one the lot was being resurfaced and it would have been next to impossible to get our equipment to the stadium, the second one was in use by the football team there under the lights, and the third……  was locked, and it was getting late.  Luck finally turned our way when we discovered that the second entrance was unlocked and we were in!  It was totally worth it…. here is the shot:

High School Senior

As for the rest of the session this senior totally rocked it and we had a great time!  Great kid, great family, spectacular pictures.  He is definitely the kind of guy you would want on your team!  Enjoy!

Peace, Love, Spokesmodels, and Frameable Faces!

We had our second annual high school senior spokesmodel party yesterday for the Frameable Faces class of 2013 and it was a blast!  Our group of 11 had been looking forward to this for a while and to finally see all the spokesmodels in the studio together wearing Frameable Faces t-shirts and having fun is one of the real highlights of the year for us.  Each year we try to take it up one more notch and we definitely did this year…

When the spokesmodels arrived yesterday all of their t-shirts were laid out on a table with their spokesmodel cards which they can pass out to their friends.

Senior Spokesmodels, Metro Detroit Photographer, Frameable Faces Photography

Frameable Faces t-shirts!

Once everyone arrived and introduced themselves to each other they started exchanging cards and I think some sort of card game broke out…  hilarious!

Next was a special presentation – this year we added the spokesmodel video which includes video clips and images from each of the sessions – take a look!

Frameable Faces Spokesmodels Class of 2013!

After raucous applause we got down to the business of taking pictures for this year’s composite photo which will be revealed soon so stay tuned!  We can’t wait to see the results of this – in the meantime here is last year’s from the class of 2012 which adorns one of our studio windows as a huge mural!

class of 2013 spokesmodels

We were about to eat dinner next but everyone decided that they had to first put on our tutus for some bonus fun – what is it with seniors and tutus?  Meanwhile one of our spokesmodels (Kyle) had to leave early leaving Donovan as the only boy – I don’t think he minded and things got pretty funny as you can see by clicking the link below…  at this point Samantha hadn’t arrived yet so this is everyone minus Kyle and Samantha….

Spokesmodel Silliness!

At that point we ate some pasta and salad for dinner, and then we finished off the night with the piéce de résistance – the Just Baked cupcake tower with a Frameable Faces cake on top!!!  The Chubby Hubby, Red Velvet, and Grumpy Cake cupcakes were the first to go….  YUM!!!!

Just Baked

All in all it was a great night and we are so happy to have these amazing young people representing our studio!  As someone said during the party, “Peace Love and Frameable Faces”!!!!
