From Boston down to Baltimore and everywhere in between, we are certain there is a spot for everyone -- and it's all waiting for you here. Read on to find the best locations in your city.

Baltimore

Baltimore has some amazing choices for portrait locations! We love it for its striking public artwork — you can get captivating looks just by strolling downtown. The historic waterfront at Fell’s Point is also full of character and makes for distinctive shots with an old-world feeling.

Harrisburg is full of charming locations for the perfect shoot. You’ll love the color and life of the dynamic landscaping on the riverfront and over to the rich textures of the City Island and Market Street Bridge. We love this combo of glass and stone!
