My passion for photography began at the University of Delaware. I devoured many photography books and eagerly began an apprenticeship with a professional photographer. On graduating I worked long hours for studios throughout the metropolitan area.

In 2001, I set up my own studio concentrating on weddings and other special events.  Now Michael Dempsey Photography boasts a highly professional team of photographers and cinematographers.  Together we have memorialized over 800 special occasions.  Our dual objective: to capture the grandeur of the day while incorporating those very human moments - the smile of a child, the tear of a grandparent.

Off-duty, often with a camera still around my neck, my wife, two-year old daughter and a couple of Boston Terriers spend time outdoors firing up the grill and enjoying time at the shore.  Usually, without a camera, we can also binge a Netflix series with the best of them.

With Michael Dempsey Photography you can be assured of capturing life’s important moments in the most professional and unobtrusive manner.  If that sounds good to you, let us together record your memories for all time.
