While Linganore Winecellars is an exceptional location for portraits of various kinds, there are also some challenges that should be considered. The winery can get quite busy at times, especially on weekends, so it is important to seek permission to hold a portrait sessions during less busy times. Additionally, the lighting can be challenging at certain times of the day since the large open spaces are generally bathed in bright direct sunlight, casting unflattering natural shadows, so it is strongly recommended that you work with a photographer who is experienced with accommodating and controlling diverse lighting conditions.
