In January 2007 the Chesapeake
Antiquarian Photographic Society (CAPS) was renamed the Maryland
Photographic Society to better address the broad interest of
the society in the development of photography from its inception
to the present. The Society which was established as Chesapeake Antiquarian
Photographic Society
in 1971,
is
open to all
who
have an
interest in photography and in the study and
preservation of
our photographic
heritage. Present members include collectors of antique and modern
cameras, photographic equipment, prints, and publications about photography
as well as students and scholars interested in the history and development
of the medium. Most of the active membership is drawn from the Chesapeake
Bay region of the mid-eastern US.
Meetings with a program related to photographic history, an annual dinner with an invited speaker, and an annual picnic are held in the Baltimore/Washington D.C. area each year.
