Let's Connect

Wedding Photography in Maryland

Maryland is full of diverse and beautiful wedding settings, from historic waterfront locations and charming small towns to elegant cityscape venues and scenic countryside estates. We love how each region of Maryland brings its own character to weddings, and we approach every celebration with curiosity, care, and creativity. Whether you’re saying “I do” overlooking the Chesapeake Bay, inside a classic Baltimore-area venue, or beneath flowering trees in Frederick’s countryside, we’re here to tell your story through our lens.

Beautiful Maryland Wedding Venues

We’ve photographed weddings throughout Maryland for the last decade and a half and love the variety this state offers couples planning their celebration. Some of our favorite Maryland wedding venues and locations include:

  • Chesapeake Bay Beach Club

  • Kent Island Resort

  • Tacaro Estate

  • London Town and Gardens

  • The Winslow

  • Citizens Ballroom

  • Mt. Washington Mill Dye House

  • The Crossvines

  • The Tidewater Inn

  • Guilford Hall Brewery

Each venue brings its own rhythm and energy, and our documentary approach allows us to adapt seamlessly to the day as it unfolds.

Our Documentary Approach to Wedding Photography

Our approach to wedding photography is unobtrusive, story-driven, and rooted in connection. Rather than directing every moment, we focus on observing and documenting what’s real — the quiet in-between moments, the emotional exchanges, and the joy shared with the people who matter most.

This style is especially well-suited to Maryland weddings, where the beauty of the surroundings and the intimacy of the day naturally take center stage.

Serving all of Maryland

From the scenic Eastern Shore and the Chesapeake Bay’s waterfront venues, to Baltimore’s iconic city settings and the rolling hills of Western Maryland, we serve couples across the state who want their love documented with heart and intention. We’re happy to travel anywhere in Maryland — whether you’re hosting a grand celebration or an intimate gathering.

  • "I don't have the words to fully express how wonderful it is to work with Kemp Collective. They were incredible every step of the way, from the initial consultation to the delivery of our photos (and SO much fun to work with on our wedding day!). I am decidedly NOT a natural in front of a camera, but you'd never know it — Erin has a real knack for making you feel comfortable and confident, which shines through in a final product that feels sincere, unposed, and just truly stunning. I cannot recommend Kemp Collective highly enough!"

    —Kaytee, 2024 Bride

  • "I’d recommend Kemp Collective to anyone! Erin and Jonathan are extremely talented photographers and just all around great humans to work with. They photographed our wedding and we couldn’t have been happier. They helped us knock out formal photos quickly and easily so we could enjoy the day with our friends and family while they captured all of the special moments and interactions along the way. I’m so thankful to have used Kemp collective for our wedding!"
