Legal Question in Traffic Law in Maryland

Evidence

If I wanted to show a picture as evidence, do I need to do anything in advance so that it can be used during the trial? I'm not sure what law category this is under but I've been accused of damaging someone's vehicle when I towed it and I want to show a picture of a car on a rollback to show that there is no way to hit something while transporting the car

You do not mention whether this is in Circuit Court or District Court and this has a bearing upon your inquiry.
