A few weeks ago, we had the E family in the studio. They were such a blast to work with! J and Ally had been friends since high school, but had fallen out of touch until recently. We had such a nice time working with her, her husband M and their sweet kids! So much personality in the studio!!! The sounds of laughter were echoing throughout the mall. Those are the kinds of sessions we love!
Ya know how there’s that one family that you’re always so excited to see when they stop by your studio (or workplace)? The one with the adorable little kid who’s all personality that you just want to squeeze and talk to all day? The people who you just click with – you can just sit and talk to them while you’re working so that your work doesn’t even seem like work? THAT family came into the studio a few weeks […]
Let’s “paws” for this blog post as we celebrate a few of our frameable pups! Pet photography is lots of fun and while dogs are not allowed in the Orchard Mall as a rule we have an exemption for our canine frameables who come to our studio for their close up. Yes sometimes Frameable Faces Photography goes to the dogs. Ally has been known to be a bit of a dog whisperer – she has a pretty good rapport with […]
“Haute” is listed in the dictionary as “fashionable, high-class”, and we found a gorgeous model to work with to showcase our “Haute” sessions here at Frameable Faces. These sessions are so fun and we wanted to display a few of the images from this shoot. Sometimes it’s fun to push the envelope a little and share the results with a significant other. Sometimes it’s fun to, ahem, really push it with a boudoir shoot and we do those at a […]
I just read a fantastic blog post that I wanted to share. http://virtualphotographystudio.com/photographyblog/2010/05/running-a-photography-business/comment-page-1/#comment-11993 It is entitled “10 Things You Should Know About Running A Photography Business”, but you could easily remove the word “Photography” as most of these are universal and wherever the topic is specifically photography related you could easily insert products or services from your own trade. For us this was mostly reinforcement that we are approaching our business the right way but we still have two weaknesses on this […]
We love photographing high school seniors here at Frameable Faces! As we prepare to start photographing our new crew of spokesmodels for the class of 2013 we have been reflecting on the fantastic class of 2012 and how great of a class it was. Having gone to high school together (go North Farmington Raiders!) we still talk about high school a lot and we keep a couple of our yearbooks here at the studio. The current seniors get a kick […]
We have been in our studio space here in the Orchard Mall for about three years now and we really are living our dream. It hasn’t always been easy building a young business but it’s been a labor of love for sure, and today on the day after Thanksgiving was one of those days when you just realize how thankful you are. We are humbled by the opportunity to be a part of the lives of our people who we […]
We’ve had the good fortune to be called upon for some very interesting photo shoots over the years and we thought it would be fun to share some “frameable things” – not just faces… So cue the music – “These are a few of our frameable things…..” You’ve probably seen or heard us gushing about Samira Cholagh and her cookbooks, one of which (Treasured Middle Eastern Cookbook) is available at our studio here in the Orchard Mall in West Bloomfield. […]
So….. we had a meeting with my friend and new guru Melissa Brodsky this morning and I am very excited! You see, Missy is an incredible and very accomplished writer and blogger and she knows her way around social media. I’ve mentioned her blog www.rockanddrool.com before and if you don’t follow it then you can’t be my friend anymore. Okay maybe that was a little strong. But you really should check it out – it’s fantabulous. As most of you […]
For some time Ally went by “Allyson Cohen Photography” before changing the name to Frameable Faces Photography. At the risk of sounding a little corny, Frameable Faces for us genuinely means many things and we thought we would share… Community It’s not just about Ally which is one of the reasons the change was made in the first place. Frameable Faces is a place – it’s a physical studio and a business true, but it only works because it’s more […]
