We are Chicago-based photographers with a deep passion for storytelling through the lens. At Shuttered & Co., we specialize in capturing modern moments with a vintage soul—bringing timeless style and nostalgia into every photoshoot we do.
But we don’t just create new memories—we also curate them. We have an eye for discovering rare, found vintage photographs, each with its own story to tell. These one-of-a-kind treasures are carefully licensed, loved, and made available for you to enjoy. From the first click of our cameras to the last frame of a forgotten photo, we celebrate the beauty of the past and present, blending them seamlessly into something truly unique.
Who we are
Shuttered; adjective.
The precise moment when a camera’s shutter closes, freezing a scene in time or controlling the light that reaches the sensor or film. A fundamental act in photography, where a fraction of a second can define an image forever.
Beyond its technical meaning, "shuttered" can symbolize a world momentarily paused, a story partially told, or a vision intentionally concealed—much like how photography chooses what to reveal and what to leave to the imagination.
