A Note from Wally — Are You One of our Former Wedding Couples??

We have been enjoying photographing contemporary weddings for almost 20 years and still loving them!
If you are one of our former wedding clients or know someone who is, PLEASE read this message and help spread the word.

Now that we have a great new Studio space in Warren, that we LOVE, we will be conducting the wedding business from there also now – which means that I will not be meeting with clients in my home in Hazel Park anymore. I therefore do not need as much space; as it is getting hard to keep up.

So I am moving to an apartment closer to the studio this June!

We loved the years of film and still have an extensive archive of film negatives in my home.  I have just not been able to throw anything away – these are someone’s memories! But I can’t move them! We also have an archive of digital files from the years that they were not included in the contract price.

We are trying to reach everyone we can but this is just not always possible or successful.

We are offering our former bridal couples the opportunity to purchase those negatives and/or files for a nominal fee so that they can archive them, preserve their family history and have them for safe keeping. They will bring back happy memories for years to come.  This will also include a personal copyright release so that any printed copies can be made. They are $200; $225 if mailed.

I do have to add that this is contingent on my being to find your wedding files, with the hundreds up there I cannot totally guarantee this sorry to say!

After mid June, I will have to purge all remaining negatives!

Did you know???

If  you are one of our former wedding couples, you are entitled to free portrait sessions – FOR LIFE at the studio – this does not include the files or any prints. If you wanted us to come to you on location, we still can, but would have to charge a small session fee of $100.  We’d love to work with you!

If you are thinking of us as your wedding photographer – keep this in mind also.

We have upgraded our Facebook pages to the new timeline.

I love the large space for the new header banner and I love that images can be highlighted to span across both columns – this really showcases them beautifully – although can not work for all photos.

I am trying Networked Blogs, which should automatically update the blog posts on my profile page and on the main Fan Page for Wally Spice Photography.   It is not set to be updated on WSP Seniors at this point. I’d like to see how this goes here before I upgrade.

PPM board of Directors

PPM board of Directors

The Professional Photographers of Michigan held their annual Photo Expo at the phenomenal Motor City Casino.  Wally Spice and Ed Westerwood were among the ones installed as the new board of directors.

Julie was also active and entered the print competition – receiving a blue ribbon for one of her 4 prints. Her and Ed entered a dual maker album from their “Steam-punk”  High school senior album. They won a blue ribbon and will be entering it at Regional.

Julie’s sons (my grandsons) Steven and Aaron were also there as various times as volunteers and student members. They sat in on many of the classes and had a great time.

We will be featuring some of our great weddings of 2011 in the next few weeks – in no particular order, with our new showcase squares – highlighting the activities of their beautiful day and their great venues and vendors.
The first is Stephanie and Paul, who were married on 7-16-11. The girls got ready at the Athenium, they were married at St/ Ambrose in Grosse Pointe Park, they enjoyed a great romantic urban shoot at some of our favorites Detroit locations and finished the evening with a great reception at the historic Colony Club in Detroit. — at Colony Club Detroit.

A huge THANK YOU to all of our wonderful clients and friends for the fantastic year of 2011 in our business. Thank you all for your love, confidence, encouragement and support!

It was definitely a year of growth and change as we had our first full year in our new studio space in Warren! Julie and I had so much fun fixing it up, accumulating countless chairs, backgrounds, lights, props, office furnishings, etc. to make it our studio home and office area, and we LOVE it!  It has evolved so much since we first started and will always be a work in progress!  It was hectic, crazy, and busy at times but we loved every minute!

We still photographed about 20 weddings and enjoyed each and every one.  We had the best brides and grooms to work with and the most awesome locations.  We especially loved all the varying locations for Romantics, like our very favorite Urban Shoots in Detroit, which have become a specialty for us.

This is the year we really launched our High School Senior program in earnest.  Last year we photographed about 8 seniors, but this year that went to at least 65!!  Julie has been the creative mastermind behind this and I am so proud of her.  We all loved the fantastic Senior Safari  for our models in early May and this grew to so many fantastic sessions!  Everyone commented that we were so refreshingly different.  We designed a dedicated logo and name for our senior division and decided to give the seniors their own Facebook fan page.  It grew from just a handful to over 500 fans in a very short time!   We have separate albums for our major locations: Locations – Urban Shoot (Detroit),  Rochester,  Studio,  Sterling Heights, and Plymouth. Be sure to check out www.facebook.com/WSPseniors.wallyspicephotography We LOVE our fans!

We also enjoyed photographing quite a few babies, children and families, many from our former brides who will always enjoy free studio sessions (files and prints not included).  It is heartwarming to see our bridal couples become loyal clients and friends as their families grow. And we sincerely appreciate the referrals!

Our main Fan Page for Wally Spice Photography has also been very active and popular, especially for the weddings and portraits as well as some of the other unique events we photographed.  Be sure to check out www.facebook.com/wallyspicephotography
We have links to our fan pages on the menu bar!

I am also so proud that both of Julie’s sons (my grandsons) have been active this year working with us.  Aaron did a lot of assisting on the weddings, contributing some awesome images.  He also helped with some of the endless editing.  Steven has shown a great interest too, he loved photographing the high school football games and also assisted on some senior sessions.  This has truly been a family business and we all love it!

I do feel bad that this blog has not been as active this year as it has in the past years, it was an extremely busy year as we grew our horizons and our face book fan pages have taken up the slack, but this will be better next year.
We are also looking to update and improve our actual website this year, but the blog will stay intact.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for your continuing support as we venture into another exciting year! We learned so much this great 2011, that 2012 will be even better and bigger!

HAPPY NEW YEAR –

Wally, Julie, Aaron, Steven

Hillary and Austin, Detroit Zoo Wedding 8-5-11.

Hilary and Austin were married August 5th at the Detroit Zoo. We took the new tram throughout the grounds for some awesome romantics and had so much fun. The polar bear was especially lively and that seemed to be the highlight of the tour. They enjoyed a beautiful ceremony in the butterfly garden and a fun reception in the interpretive gallery.

WSP Seniors

WSP Seniors Our new division of Wally Spice Photography

Since the spring of 2011 we decided that our popular division of High School Senior photography within Wally Spice Photography deserves it own spotlight. We designed a new logo for WSP seniors and started a Facebook fan page dedicated just to our high school seniors.

Please take a look at this great fan page -   WSP seniors fan page or Use menu link

Julie is the mastermind behind all of this – since she has attended numerous high profile conventions dedicated just to the seniors. At these conventions she studied for many days with some of the best high school photography photographers from around the US.

Aaron, Julie’s son will be a senior at Cousino High school next year so he joined us as an administrator of the Fan page. It wasn’t hard to find lots of fantastic models willing to have fun with us!

We had our first senior “Safari” experience with our models and everyone had a fantastic time.
We photographed all day in many great locations. Aristocat Transporations helped us make the day extra special, as the models enjoyed riding in the Excursion SUV Limousine. Our driver, Ron was the best!

After this we had a great “Reveal” party at Blumz by JR, a floral and gift shop on Woodward Ave in Ferndale to show all of our amazing images. They had a back room that worked out just super.  Thank you SO much for your hospitality.

We were the official photographers for the Perfect Wedding Guide Bridal show at Petruzzellos  recently and had a great time.  Julie took the normal candids and detail photos of the beautiful ballroom and  how much fun everyone was having.

Julie and Diane Flores  had a fantastic idea this time for a special photo contest – I set up a background and photographed every bride (that wanted to0) next to the photo of the new square SE Michigan Perfect Wedding Guide magazine poster.  These are all on the fan page for Perfect Wedding Guide and the brides  and their family and freinds are going to the site,  liking it – and then finding the bride of their choice and Liking  their photo or making a comment under the photo. The bride with the most “likes” will have her wedding featured in the next issue of the Perfect wedding Guide.

I had so much fun taking the photos and often encouraged them to be a little different – as in “show me some attitude!”

110 brides ended up having their photo posted- and the competition is getting very heated. Kyleigh Roberts has 345, Nikki Earl has 344 and Gerilynn Karoub has 255! as of  March 27th – and we only go to April 1st.  Good luck ladies and have fun!

I enjoyed working with all of you, and IF you do not already have a photographer we would love to be your wedding photographer!  I am extending a special $200 off discount to anyone that books with us at Wally Spice Photography!

Give us a call and lets talk about your specific plans!

One of our weddings was featured in the the first square magazine – take a look at Lindsey and Scott and the stunning photos of  their dip in front of the Fox theater at night – part of our fun and famous  “Urban Shoot” and the other great images on pages 22 – 23. This spread was used in all the marketing for the contest as an example of what you can win!

Engagement session at the Detoit Zoo

Posted on March 12, 2011

We photographed a phenomenal engagement session a the Detroit Zoo Monday for Molly and Justin – he works there so this was extra special and we were lucky enough to be there when the polar bear was being fed. This made for some awesome images of the majestic bear, with the water all around us, while we were in the tunnel for quite some time – the arctic ring of life. What a fun, incredible experience for all of us – we sure did ENJOY!

As I meet with more couples to talk about their options for wedding photography, we go over the timing and plans for the day. They love the great romantics they see and the unique personal locations we have gone to (like our popular “Detroit Urban Shoots”. But often there is just not enough time between the ceremony and reception and they would rather not keep their guests waiting while we have fun taking the photos.

At least half of our couples have a great solution – they elect to see each other beforehand; usually this is based on timing of the day.  But no-one can talk you into it – the decision has to be yours alone – we can only point out advantages.

The idea of not seeing each other comes from medieval days – when marriages were arranged – if he saw you beforehand – he might change his mind.  A lot of contemporary couples are now saying – let’s make this work for us.

The whole secret – it that you HAVE to have a “special moment” when you first see each other – and we help to arrange this – it should be more private – maybe you are coming down a staircase, or out a door, and he is there waiting – be creative.  Then you can say things to each other without the whole world watching and we just capture the emotion from a distance.

Then you can have your wedding party join you and we can go where ever you want – within reason of the timing, and just have FUN!  This is your snuggle time and special time with each other and the people closest to you.  Believe me, after the ceremony it gets much more hectic. ENJOY this time!

The 2 of you are your own best friends, you tend to calm each other down, and this is usually such a relief and stress reducer.  This is the most important day of your lives – why spend it hiding from each other?!
Besides, you get to wear your gorgeous dress longer!
And, you get a lot more incredible images that are natural and fun and really show your style and the creative style you chose your photographer for!

NO-ONE has EVER said “I wish we didn’t do that” – everyone has loved it and raved about it.

When you walk done the aisle it is another special moment!
Sometimes we still do a limited amount of immediate family “Alter groups” just after the ceremony – but then you can mingle with your guests and ENJOY your own party!

I went looking through the files and found so many great images of this over the years – here are a few of our favorites.

It is a real option that many modern couples have embraced to make the timing of the day work for them and enjoy EACH OTHER more.  If you have any questions please feel free to call and we can talk about your options within the timing of your day!

Hope you are enjoying the Holidays and getting ready to have a very Merry Christmas.

We usually celebrate Christmas Eve in the German Tradition, but this year Julie’s boys wanted to go up north to be with their dad a little earlier, so we had our special dinner and get together on Tuesday.  Aaron came by early to help me clean up and cook the Rolladen.  My brother Gunther came by after work and we had a nice dinner and family time.

This is our Christmas card this year – with images from this eve and some of the other best images of 2010 both here in Michigan and Alaska where my youngest daughter Tracy lives with her family – especially my little grandson Gunther who is 4 now.

For our New Studio Open Houses, we offered a free photo with Santa and asked everyone, strictly voluntarily, to bring in some non perishable food to donate to the Gleaners Food Banks in our area. Well today we took everything in to the Warren Distribution center. We ended up with 190 pounds – which they say can feed at least 200 people! Thank you for your generosity! This is especially helpful a this time – when the temps are cold and holidays near!

Our last 2 open houses for our Grand Opening of our New Studio space went very well – Thank you for your donations to the Gleaners food bank and thank you for coming in to see us.  Everyone loved Santa and their free photo and often we had a chance to take a few more candids around the studio.

We had many say how much they enjoyed bringing their kids to visit Santa and many asked us if we were going to be doing it again. So…we are now answering with YES, for one last time, on Sunday, December 19th from noon until 3pm, we will be offering this again. We are asking you to bring a donation of food that we will be donating to the Gleaners Food Bank. And of course have a free photo with Santa.

Please see the details in the new flyer that I am attaching.  Hope to see you there!!

We really enjoyed photographing the wedding of Lindsey and Scott Dec.4th. Her mom Adell is a close friend of Wally’s through OES, so this was like family. After the beautiful ceremony at the 1st English Lutheran Church in Grosse Point, we rushed downtown Detroit for a fun Urban romantic photo shoot. Despite the cold and vanishing light we got a lot of incredible images at the DIA, the Fox, Campus Martius and the Westin Book Cadillac. The evening was topped off with a great reception at the Royalty House in Warren.

We photographed a great wedding for Dana and Steve on November 27th at the beautiful Crown Plaza Hotel in Novi. They had gotten engaged on Thanksgiving last year so having the wedding on Thanksgiving weekend was extra special. Thank you Andy for the recommendation – we photographed her daughter’s wedding 6 years ago!

I will be adding some here soon -

Well we really did it – We just got the key for the new space we are going to use as a studio! Very excited, yet also very nervous! Sometimes you have to take a risk and work hard to make it work!! It is a big change for us but Julie and I are so excited. I will keep working the weddings out of my home studio for now -.and will be using the studio space mainly for portraits and seniors. Now lots of work ahead of us!!!

It is on Hoover just north of 13 mile – just 2 miles north of 696. Julie is just north of it in Sterling Heights and the high school her boys go to is just south of us. It’s not huge and not really a store front – but we really don’t need that at this point. It will take some work to fix up like we want it but that will be fun too!

We are aiming  for the date of  Wednesday December 1st for our Grand Opening – complete with a free photo with Santa for the kids – so HOLD that date!!

Amy and Ryan had a great wedding September 25th .The ceremony was held at the St Peter’s Catholic Church in

Mt Clemens. We had so much fun for the romantics – Ryan is a firefighter at the Sterling Heights Station and we had to make a stop there.  I love it when we can make our romantics more personal..

Then off to a fun Detroit urban shoot
at the Tiger by Comerica Park, The Fox and Hart Plaza.I have to admit Ryan and the guys did something I have never seen before – he was hoised up by his groomsmen and then hung into the Tigers teeth and just hung up there for awhile !

The reception was held at Zucaros on 21 and Gratiot where everyone had a fantastic time

Cousino High School was voted to be Channel 4 Friday Football Frenzy’s Football Game of the Week last Friday. Julie and I both photographed the pep rally at 6 in the morning. It was amazing how many people showed up and how high the spirit and frenzy was. Aaron is a Junior there this year – his friend Josh plays in the marching band and we know  some of the players and their parents and the coaches there.

Lauren Podell of Channel 4 was there and did a terrific job – it was an honor to be working next to her. She loved our images and we were so excited to see that she used one of our images as her profile pic and used some of the images on her site.

Julie photographed the actual game in the evening and had so much fun.  She was in her glory, as she used to photograph professional arena football. This is true photojournalism!
We have lots of photos, links and a great slideshow on our Wally Spice Photography Fan Page

This is the video Julie just made from some of the images from the Pep Rally and the Football Game.
