portrait of girl from Denmark

Meet Cecilie, a foreign exchange student from Denmark, attending Livonia Churchill High School. Naturally, at the risk of being cliche' - when you see Cecilie's eyes you'll know why "She is breaking our hearts daily..."  An extra special shout out goes to Kerigan and Christine for helping make this shoot a fun experience. By the ...

Despite the bitter weather and brief snow flurries Kelly was instrumental in warming up the shoot with her beautiful smile.  


On Course with Rachael

As we've mentioned before we love when graduates do a little homework and provide us with a new setting or challenge us to use a spot in a variety of unique ways. In this case, Rachael wanted to use Fox Creek Golf Course in Livonia. Rachael is a member of the Stevenson Golf Team and ...


Shooting for Par

Wednesday, January 25, 2012

It was a rather gloomy day outside, but the cloud coverage was pretty intense. There was just enough light to highlight the fall leaves for Ryan's senior session. And, Ryan wore a good choice of colors that either helped him stand out among the landscape or compliment the aesthetic of fall in downtown Northville. Be ...


Diamonds are Forever…

We were so excited Ciara gave us the opportunity to capture her Graduate photos. She was a total gamer last year in a series of buddy pics with her main squeeze, Steven. So we were anxious to get Ciara in her element. Ciara has a radiant smile and her choice of outfits was impeccable - ...

Ordinarily we like to start early to get that perfect angle of sun, avoid the summer heat and avoid everyone's nemesis...mosquitoes! Unfortunately, this was an unusual summer and the bugs were waiting for us! Regardless of their distracting presence, Sarah was all smiles and didn't allow any of the elements to dampen her photo session. As ...


An All-State Performance

Football player with arms folded against the blue sky

Although it was a slightly brisk fall morning, the sky and colors of the sun couldn't have worked out better. And, as evidenced in the first image, Jordan stood tall and proud fully decked in a classic black suit, silver polka dot tie and pocket square. As we shifted to something more casual, Jordan again brought ...


Sam, I Am

Our family enjoys scouting locations and we knew this abandoned warehouse strip would be ideal for an urban street skater. Beyond this setting we used a good variety of the Mill Race Park landscape to incorporate Sam's many styles. Enjoy his array of head to toe looks from Sperry Topsiders and vneck sweaters to his ...


On Board with Ally

This was a really fun shoot and yes we managed to break this session up into Ally's 2-hour window. First, we started off with our portable backdrop for the headshot, which we composed against the General Store at Mill Race. Next, Ally quickly changed things up, transitioning into a retro white denim jacket accented by ...


Stew Takes Plymouth by Storm

It certainly threatened several times, but often gloomy skies and overcast sky make for some of our favorite photography. We absolutely loved Stewart's accessories...the derby and leather Jacket, giving him that authentic James Dean look. And, we were happy to take advantage of the rubble and debris next to Box Bar in downtown Plymouth.
