Yay doesn’t begin to cut it – we needed to add “yahoo” (we almost added a “yippee”) for Yanni and her senior pictures! Yanni’s mom Inger and I (Doug) go back to college days at Michigan where we hung out in some of the same circles and I was always a fan of Inger with her fun signature “Heyyy mannn!!!” greeting. We reconnected a few years back through Facebook and we’ve been in regular touch again since. Love when that […]
With another entry in the surreal moments category we present to you our last and FAR from least spokesmodel for the rising Class of 2021 seniors – JuJu!!! Giulianna was last here with her siblings in December of 2010! Here’s a photo from that session from a studio sample book we still have! She was so adorable! And now she’s back a full decade later as a beautiful and kind senior! Wow… time sure flies and it’s so special […]
The last time we photographed Jaden he was just a little kid here with his family (check out this old school blog post going back almost a decade), and now he’s grown up to be an awesome young man on his way to pursue his education at Florida A&M – he’s going to be a Rattler! We are big fans of this family and we planned Jaden’s session for before the pandemic started, but we didn’t get it in before […]
Loving Lira is something we’ve been doing for a solid decade! She was one of our favorites when we used to do dance photos for the dance studio across the hall and we’ve pretty much planned on having her be a spokesmodel someday all this time. She’s a character this one – in the very best way – she runs track, plays in the band AND she’s a power lifter!!! All with a larger than life personality and we are […]
This is the second year in a row we’ve had a spokesmodel named Maddie and we may have to just start recruiting Maddies as a strategy. They seem to be pretty awesome as a category. This Maddie is no exception – outgoing with a ton of personality and just a sweetheart! We’ve photographed her cousins in the past so there is some connection there, her mom Stephanie is a delight, and we’re thrilled to have her representing the Farmington Hills […]
Just being able to write “Leah Leads Us Back To Action” is a joy for so many reasons! For starters this was our first photo session in months after being home to flatten the curve of the pandemic, so just getting out and being back at it doing what we love was exhilarating. But to be with Leah and her mom Emma made it even better because we’re friends and have been for many years. So to have that interaction […]
We had a wonderful time – extreme enjoyment you might say a few weeks ago with Ellie for her spokesmodel session for the class of 2021! We are pleased to share these highlights during times of stress as we continue to prepare for the upcoming senior class, and Ellie is representing our studio for North Farmington High School – our alma mater! Meanwhile we go way back with Ellie’s family – Doug went to Michigan with Ellie’s mom Kari […]
Adrianna has been a part of the Frameable Faces studio since it opened in the Orchard Mall over 11 years ago! You may recognize her as the adorable little girl in the big frame by our theater in the back of the studio… …and now she’s a beautiful young lady and the first of our class of 2021 senior spokesmodels! She even gave us a little side by side in the Facebook livestream you’ll see below which was so much […]
We have a PODCAST!!! I guess you could say this story began almost 5 years ago really… We have been livestreaming on Periscope since March 31st, 2015 – 5 days after the app launched in the app store. Since then we’ve met people virtually through Periscope all over the world, spoken at the Periscope Community Summit (Summit Live) in San Francisco, visited and/or photographed people we’ve met in Biloxi, Pensacola, Orlando, Mobile, New York, and Harbor Springs, restored photos […]
To be clear – the goal is not to score a hat trick ON Sam because he’s a goalie, but to use a hockey phrase that’s what Sam IS. Smart, personable and athletic – we love this kid. And why wouldn’t we? We’ve known his parents for a longggggg time. Ally and I were at North Farmington with both of them and Sam’s mom Missy and I go all the way back to kindergarten. Sam’s dad Mike was like an […]
