Specializing in senior and family portraiture, Shutter the Thought Photography will give you that special attention to detail and fun atmosphere you would come to expect from a 13 year veteran in the portrait photography business. Enjoy the benefits of both our indoor and outdoor studios. Our indoor studio, the only one in the area, is a refurbished farm barn that offers a unique and rustic setting while our outdoor studio offers backdrops from rustic to urban.

     Karen Dempsey, the photographer, studied photography at Lansing College's photography school and learned the craft with black and white film. Her portraiture is both classic and timeless. Today in the digital era, she keeps current by continuing education classes and seminars. Karen is a member of the Professional Photographers Association.

     Along with photographic services, Shutter the Thought also offers graphic design services and video slideshows for any occasion. Hours are subject to meet your needs and are by appointment.
