We want your visit to Ford House to be memorable. We invite you to take flash-free pictures of the house and auxiliary buildings; however, for the safety of visitors and the collection, we do not permit flash photography, video, tripods, telephoto lenses or selfie sticks inside historic buildings.

While strolling through the gardens and grounds visitors are welcome to use flash photography, video, tripods, telephoto lenses, and selfie sticks; however, drones are not permitted.

We would love to follow your experience. Share your images on social media with the hashtag #FordHouse. 

Professional & Special Occasion Photography

Make your special day even more memorable by capturing your photos on the breathtaking grounds at Ford House. Professional photography is allowed with prior approval and a session fee.

The estate provides the perfect backdrop for milestone photography, from newborn to high school senior portraits, and from engagements to bride-and-groom portraits. There are several lovely locations on the expansive grounds from which to choose. Please note: The inside of the house is not available for special occasion photography.
