Krazy For Katie and Her Detroit Senior Session!

We’re Krazy for Katie!  She’s funny – and smart and adorable – a senior student athlete at West Bloomfield High School and we had a blast with her, her mom Ann and her pup Bella!  We did some studio work along with a jaunt down to Detroit and the whole session was a winner…  let’s get to some highlights!

Krazy for Katie!

Let’s start in the studio with Katie and Bella who gave us plenty of smiles for the camera – like this one!

What We Have With This Senior Session Is A Case Of Pure Kiana Nirvana!

Kiana Nirvana – it’s a state of being that you reach when you are having a blast with a certain St Johns, Michigan volleyball playing senior and her delightful mom Sonya, and we reached it!  They discovered us on Facebook when they saw a couple highlights from another volleyball player’s pics – Alivia – and they gave us a call!  St. Johns isn’t close, but Sonya actually spends some time down this way for business so they are familiar with the terrain so to speak… 

To minimize the extra trips we met over Facetime to plan out the session which was a lot of fun and we went with some studio volleyball fire and Quarton Lake for the location in Birmingham.  We were pleased to get perfect weather and the day was a memorable one!

Kiana Nirvana

We started indoors for the volleyball photos and here’s a highlight:

Kiana Nirvana

FIERCE!!!  Kiana has come a long way in her relatively short volleyball career and she is already committed to continue it at the college level at Northwood!

Here’s some fun behind the scenes action from Facebook – check it out!

At this point we headed outside to Quarton Lake in Birmingham…

Kiana Nirvana

Beautiful!!!

Kiana Nirvana

We have more behind the scenes from the location too – this time from when we went live on Instagram:

And we’ll leave you with one more image:

Kiana Nirvana

The dress, the bridge, the girl – just a gorgeous photo!

And there you have it – Kiana Nirvana indeed!  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!

Evidence Of Emily Being Exceptional On Her Senior Session!

Yes there is plenty of evidence of Emily being exceptional – not just on her senior session in case the title is misleading, because we’ve known this for a while.  Really since the first time we met her and throughout her time representing the studio as a spokesmodel for the class of 2018!  Plus she’s a North Farmington Raider which always helps, but she’s no ordinary Raider, she’s an accomplished musician and student athlete!  She’s a total character as well so really she’s the whole package and we are huge fans!

Emily Being Exceptional

With Emily we traveled to Ann Arbor and spent the morning photographing on and around the U of M campus which obviously has lots of great spots, and her mom Jen joined – we always have a great time together with them!  We’ll start with this one:

Emily

Stunningly beautiful!

Now there’s a little story with that one… we had a bit of an emergency situation with a big fat bumblebee who was hanging around in the flowers that decided to hitch a ride in Emily’s beautiful long hair and come along in the car…. let’s just say Emily was a little startled when she discovered Mr. Bumblebee.  Holy moly….  haha!  But Emily’s a trooper and she survived!  Lol…

Meanwhile we do have some behind the scenes from our day – not of the bee but of the bee-yoo-tee.  See what I did there?  First with the replay of our Facebook Live broadcast:

Here are a couple more where we explored and took advantage of textures and architecture on campus:

Emily

Framed nicely with the full length shot!

Here’s some more behind the scenes fun from the YouTube Live replay:

And now with the close up…

Emily

Emily being exceptional indeed!

At this point after a delicious vegan lunch at The Lunch Room where our Lacey met up with us as well we headed back to the studio in West Bloomfield to get a couple more photos including some focus on volleyball – and this next photo is LIT….  We usually play with fire on the black backdrop but this one on the grey is just awesome

Emily

A great one to finish on!  So as you can see there was plenty of evidence of Emily being exceptional and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our day with her!

Move Over Kerri Walsh Jennings – Here Comes Kayla and She’s On Fire!

Okay so maybe Kerri Walsh Jennings doesn’t have to “move over” per se….  After all she may be the greatest beach volleyball player of all time, but we don’t know Kerri Walsh Jennings personally and Kayla is a volleyball player we do know!  So with all due respect to Kerri, here comes Kayla and we are choosing to focus on her!  We spent a morning with her and her mom Dawn recently for senior pictures and it was a truly memorable experience!  And yes, this girl was “on fire” – but we’ll get to that in a little bit…  haha!

Here Comes Kayla…

With Kayla we had a game plan that included some studio work and some on location shooting in Birmingham.  We started on location as we tend to do for morning sessions when the sun is lower in the sky, and the conditions were perfect!

Here comes Kayla

Love it!

Let’s break for a little behind the scenes fun from the shoot shall we?  Let’s switch it up from the usual and start with a replay from the live Periscope broadcast from Quarton Lake!  If you want to be a part of our live broadcasts by joining and chatting live follow us at @frameablefaces here, or just watch us on twitter here.

Here’s one more photo on location for you before we head back to the studio:

Here comes Kayla

How about that backlight on her hair?  Gorgeous!

Now here’s our looping Vine that sums up the day in 6 seconds….

Next we’ll focus on the studio photos which you saw a glimpse of in the vine…

We focused mostly on the black background – love this one….

Here comes Kayla

And now here is the studio Periscope replay…

And as an added bonus we even did a little live video on Facebook!

Now it’s time to get to the coup de grace!  Remember when we said Kayla was “on fire”?  Remember when we told Kerri Walsh Jennings to move over?  This is the shot we were talking about….  Kayla rocking the Falcon gear with a fiery volleyball!

Here comes Kayla

Love that!  And there you have it!  Kayla had a fabulous session and we hope you enjoyed the highlights of our morning with her!!!
