Ah yes, Spring is in the air and so is college graduation! This has become such a fun time of year for us and if this first crew of the 2024 college grad season in East Lansing is any indication it’s going to be a fantastic one!!! We also lucked out with the weather – it was a beautiful sunny morning on campus!
2024 College Grad Pics with Spartans!
Let’s get to some highlights – how adorable is this group?
There are plenty of spots around campus to use – some of them iconic and some of them spur of the moment! The Sparty statue is obviously pretty iconic…
Here’s a little behind the scenes from the bridge by the stadium…
Next is one of those spur of the moment pics – when you see a prime spot for this fantastic five to sit and the sun is hitting just right? Spectacular!!!
Now it was time to change into casual clothes and have some fun…
And one of the results – we’ll leave you with this one – they really nailed it with the bubbly. On this one you can barely see them! Sometimes it’s about the moment….
Ha! Congrats girls!!!
We had a blast with these Spartans and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our morning with them!

This crew of Spartan Grads were a total blast to photograph on a perfect day in East Lansing!!! Two of them we had photographed before – Marlee for headshots and Lilly was a Frameable Faces senior! The rest of their pals were delightful and it was a fantastic day, so let’s get to a few highlights!
Spartan Grads Sparty On!
We started by the stadium…
Beautiful Spartans!
Next we headed over to Sparty himself and we have some fun behind the scenes first from Facebook:
And the result!
We also made sure to get some individual photos of the girls and some smaller groupings of besties – here’s Marlee…
…and here’s Lilly!
Here’s some more behind the scenes from Instagram:
Friends forever! We were really impressed with this crew getting to know them and their plans for the future – we wish them all the best – Spartans Will! A huge accomplishment for each of them that was not without its share of adversity and we salute them. We were honored to be a part of this day with them and we hope you enjoyed the highlights!

This month we decided it was time to go back to school! Because like, we really miss college. Okay well not exactly – we embarked on the 2017 Frameable Faces Campus Tour which was our third one! We did campus tours back in2013 and 2015 – not necessarily by design although the bi-annual approach may work going forward. We’ll see since they are pretty darn fun. You see we love our high school seniors and we miss them when they go away! They often visit when they come home but we like to head up to Ann Arbor and East Lansing once in a while to see them and feed them – college kids love food right? We get to reconnect with them and find out what’s going on in their lives and their parents get to see that they’re alive and well! Haha!
2017 Frameable Faces Campus Tour – First Stop, Michigan Wolverines! GO BLUE!
We started out at U of M and we met at the traditional campus tour spot Pizza House right in the middle of campus! We even got to Ann Arbor a little early and did a little snapchat story where we included a couple other stops on campus in addition to all the obligatory selfies with our Frameable Wolverines! Here’s the snap story:
We also grabbed a quick Facebook Live video while we were visiting with our friends…. 🙂
Lastly we walked around and gave our Periscope community a little tour of central campus and one of our seniors Becca made another random cameo – so fun!

Here’s the Instagram collage we posted that summed it all up:
That wraps up our a-MAIZE-ing day at Michigan! One week later it was time to…
Sparty On! The 2017 Frameable Faces Campus Tour Rolls Into East Lansing!
Now we have to put a disclaimer on this… we thought heading up to MSU on MLK Day would be a good idea because the University was open but there were no classes. And that would have been a great plan. What wasn’t a great plan was not checking the weather, because had we done that we would been aware of the freezing rain that came down most of the day. Not kidding – we saw over twenty cars in the ditch on either side of I-96 on the way up to East Lansing. The weather put a slight damper on the plans – we didn’t get up there early enough to do a snap story around campus like we did in Ann Arbor and our turnout wasn’t as big. BUT – we didn’t let that stop us from having a great time anyway with a few of our faves! Here’s our Snap Story with our selfies, topopo salads & Insomnia cookies!
We also have a fun Facebook Live video from El Azteco…
Fun! And here’s our Instagram collage from MSU…
And that about sums up the tour! We had so much fun visiting with our former Frameables and it’s such a thrill to see them thriving and learning up at school! We wish we could get to all of the other schools too but time and logistics make it impossible! Suffice it to say this is how we feel about all of our former seniors!!! We hope you enjoyed the highlights of the 2017 Frameable Faces Campus Tour!

We have been saying for a long time that it would be fun to visit our seniors when they go away to college, so this year we launched the first annual Frameable Faces Campus Tour! We started out with a trip to East Lansing to visit our Frameable Spartans, and we had a great time!
Frameables at "El Az"!
As usual this get together centered around food. We arrived on campus and picked up Lainie, Jessica, and Chelsea at their apartments/dorms and headed over to El Azteco which is a Mexican dining favorite at Michigan State for the famous Topopo Salad. We had lots of laughs and it was great to catch up! If you enjoy a good salad and you haven’t had one of these you are missing out….
Two Topopos! Yum!
Ally with some of her favorite Frameable Spartans!
Doug with Jessica, Chelsea and Lainie
We then walked a few blocks over to Insomnia Cookies – one of the best concepts ever. Cookies served warm and even delivered until 2:45 AM – wish we would have had this when we were in college….
The Insomnia Cookies didn't last long...
Each one of these girls were responsible for some our best “iconic” shots of all time – Lainie actually IN the water with a dress on, Jessica in the snow in a white dress, and Chelsea on the pink background on a huge canvas that hung in our studio for a long time. Three of our all time favorites! All in all it was a great night and we hope to do this every year! Next stop, Ann Arbor….!
