Desiree Ortman Photography

Desiree Ortman Photography Desiree Ortman Photography is a luxury senior portrait photographer based just north of Baltimore, Maryland in Harford County. hi. i'm desiree.

I'm the mother of two pretty amazing kids - a sassy six year old little girl with a heart of gold and a sweet and shy three year old little boy. I married my very own prince charming in 2008 and he's been the driving force in helping me pursue my dreams. I guess you could say I'm the creative type. I worked in marketing and public relations for 8 years with a Fortune 500 company right here in Balt

imore, MD. I loved my job, but staying home with my babies was super important for me. Pinterest is my jam; I'm addicted to HGTV and I love decorating and crafting, too. Oh and I run my own Stella & Dot jewelry biz as well, so styling a photo shoot is so fun for me, too! I'm all about freezing time. Sure, I love a gorgeous portrait, but I love capturing real moments - the love shared by a newly engaged couple, the silliness of two siblings, the bond between mom and son. Most of my work is done outdoors because let's face it, there's nothing more beautiful than mother nature. Be sure to check out my website and Instagram to get a feel for my style. If you like what you see here... drop me a message and let's chat.

what’s so crazy is that the longer I photograph seniors the more I get to work with friends from my own teenage years. But last night I had the privilege of spending the evening with an old friend who I’ve know since elementary school. Her daughter is one of my DOP REPS and just the sweetest and most beautiful soul 🤍

the very last of my Class of 2026 DOP REPS finally got her chance in the spotlight today… being a competitive cheerleader sometimes means pushing your senior sesh out until Mid May, but it was worth it…
