Shelby Township Senior Center displays Featured Artist’s work during September and October

SHELBY TOWNSHIP — Justin Wrinkle, a photographer who loves capturing life’s most precious moments and who owns Behind the Lens Photography LLC, a professional photography service, has been named the Shelby Township Featured Artist for the months of September and October.

Wrinkle’s work is now on display at the Shelby Township Senior Center inside the Shelby Township Activities Center, 14975 21 Mile Road.

“With a deep passion for the craft, I strive to capture the essence and beauty of every moment,” Wrinkle said via email. “I believe that photography is more than just taking pictures, it is an art form that requires creativity, skill and an eye for detail, whether it is a family portrait, or a special event or the most beautiful landscape or macro photography the regular eye can’t see.”

Wrinkle said he has liked photography for as long as he can remember.

“All my knowledge is self-taught through various types of media and experience. As I have been told, time and time again, I have a talent in the area of photography and an eye for thinking out of the box. I decided to turn my hobby into a small business in July 2022,” he said.

Wrinkle said he loves capturing a moment that someone can revisit forever. He photographs, edits, prints and frames his prints.

Jacqueline Phillips said she purchased a photo that Wrinkle captured and spent a lot of time getting just right in the editing phase.

“Since he is local, as well, I was able to pick up, so no worries about shipping. Print was packaged nicely and looks super chic with a nice matted frame,” she said.

Tim Wrinkle, Justin’s father, said he purchased several framed prints from Justin for the walls of his Airbnb.  

“You can see his gifted photographer’s eye in each print. The quality of his prints are exceptional from the ink quality to the paper,” he said in an email.
