This was truly a special delivery in more ways than one. You may recall our “Nikon Girl” Angela’s maternity session here on the blog, and if you’ve been following her story you may already know that Ally was there to photograph the birth of Angela and Cam’s beautiful baby girl Aubrey… here is the photo essay from our YouTube channel from that amazing day: 6 days later marked Aubrey’s arrival in the studio for her newborn session and it was […]
When we say we’re kicking off our class of 2018 spokesmodels we actually mean we’re kicking it off! With a kicker – a female kicker! We are thrilled to have Olivia representing our studio and this is always an exciting time for us as we start to look towards the upcoming senior class which we’ll start photographing in earnest this summer. Some our favorite people of all time and very close friends started out as spokesmodels going all the way […]
As you know social media is my thing. I spend the majority of my time creating content to put out online for our studio and other businesses from time to time. I train people on how to use social media and very often the photography business leads to discussions about branding with our clients who come here for professional headshots to market themselves. So it makes sense for me to write articles on the things I learn about smallbiz marketing […]
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 in 2013 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 […]
We have been live streaming on Periscope (and now Facebook Live too) for almost two years and the best thing about it has been meeting all the great people we’ve met from around the world. We continue to broadcast live 5-6 days per week and we continue to meet new people like Rachel Moore whom we met just within the last few months. Rachel has a social media marketing company called Really Social in Colorado and she hosts a Twitter […]
“Shira Soars Over Detroit City” definitely tells the story of this senior session! We’ve actually known Shira for a while because we’ve photographed her siblings and a family portrait that she was in here at the studio a few years back. But Shira’s session took on a whole new approach from the others because we had access to some space and even a roof high above the city of Detroit! So cool! Meanwhile Shira is a sweetheart and she looked […]
Pamela had been here in our studio before for some headshots and she is a delightful gal! So when she called us to come back to the studio we were excited – even more so when she informed us that she would be bringing her hubby Michael and their French Bulldog George!!! You have to love French Bulldogs, and George is a character – we knew this would make for a doggone great session! Doggone Great… This session was done […]
Neil was pretty darn cute when he was here as a little bitty baby, and – no surprise – he’s still pretty darn cute as a two year old! He came back to the studio with his minions even though it was him who was dressed as one! Haha… Parmesh and Nalini are great – we laugh quite a bit when we’re together here in the studio and we had another winning session this time around with different outfits, plenty […]
Okay so let me explain… Many of you know our event photographer Angela aka “Nikon Girl”. Angela has been with us since she walked into the studio on February 11th, 2011 asking if we were looking for a photographer. She was still a photography student then but she had her little portfolio with her and Ally saw something in her photos, so we kidnapped her that very day and took her on location with us. She just fit. She’s always […]
This isn’t the first time I’ve written about our daughter Lacey on this blog. She represented our studio this year as a senior spokesmodel and we already did one epic session with her in downtown Detroit. This time around it’s her senior session and it’s a good thing I’m writing this post because if Ally tried she’d probably be an emotional mess. It goes fast – really fast, and here we are – it’s been 17 and a half years […]
