Jessica certainly made our work feel like magic with her gorgeous smile, big and bold brown eyes, and her Charlie's Angles inspired curls that would stop anyone in their tracks. The hardest part with selecting our favorites for this post was exactly that...narrowing down our favorites from a 2-hour shoot! One of my personal favorites ...

As the title of this entry suggests, check out Kelsey's stunning eyes. Usually it is a person's smile that has an impact on the overall tone or feel of an image. However, in Kelsey's case, one can't help but be captivated by her eyes. They draw you in and create an intense mood with all ...


Shooting for Par

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 ...


Chelsey and the Setting Sun

It was hard to believe that a year had already passed since we last worked with the Gleason Family, taking Bre's pictures. Our session began promptly at the Gleason household where a definite air of excitement and anxiety filled the air. Chelsey was eagerly looking forward to her photo session, meanwhile Bre was getting ready ...


The Sun Shines Through Sam

We had an absolutely gorgeous day for Sammy's shoot. There are days when the mixture of cloud coverage and angle of the sun make for impeccable lighting. And, what a day to have such dramatic lighting to compliment Sam's stunning profile and smile. We are big fans of utilizing the sun to rim light or ...

The beauty of our job is working with and discovering the many hidden talents of our seniors. In this case, Amara, and her abilities on the piano. While we weren't able to do Amara's session with a full grand piano, she was more than excited to do some poses with her Yamaha Keyboard.    


Perfect Timing

Megan's shoot was all about timing. It was extremely windy and the rapid movement of clouds had us constantly adjusting our reflectors and Alien Bee strobes. The first shot is arguably one of my favorites from the season and "highlights" how precious timing can be - lucky for us, Ryan was quick on the trigger ...


Katie and her Eclectic Collection

The beauty of the Fall sky and colors is their ability to create an entirely different perspective with locations we use so regularly throughout the year. In this case, Mil Race Park in downtown Northville. The downside is the limited and infrequent amounts of sun and natural daylight available. Katie definitely came prepared with a ...


Rachel: From “Soc” to “Greaser”

We had a great time working with Rachel on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon and her choice of outfits were a perfect compliment of two contrasting styles. Please forgive our cheesy Outsiders reference, but as middle school teachers we feel Rachel's Cherry Valance aesthetic fits the bill. Rachel started off the session by showcasing her "girly" ...

Ok, we don't know exactly what it is, but Devin has got it. A passion for fashion and a well tailored appearance, Devin showcased his skills tremendously throughout the streets of downtown Northville. Devin was a one man show who drew the attention of several onlookers, some of which had out their own camera phones ...
