SENIOR PHOTOS

SHOULDN’T COST A FORTUNE

AND THAT’S WHY WE’RE HERE!

Meet Your PHOTOGRAPHERS

A young man and woman are walking and laughing together in an urban parking lot with tall modern buildings in the background. The woman is wearing ripped jeans and white sneakers, and the man is wearing a gray t-shirt, black jeans, and white sneakers. They are holding hands and seem to be enjoying each other's company.

Hey there!! We are Mara & Jake, two designers who fell head over heels in love with photography…and each other, too.

We believe that senior photos have gotten WAY too expensive! Everyone deserves to have a special photo in the yearbook without spending a fortune.

  • My daughter’s photos are gorgeous. So many great ones - I don’t know how we’ll pick the best ones. It was so great to have two photographers and get different angles on the same pic - that’s unique and some of the photos from a lower or off to the side angle are my favorites. Mara and Jake are a great fun duo. And for a third the price of other senior photographers? Wow. How could you not choose them! Highly recommend.

  • I 100% recommend Mara and Jake! They made this a warm and comfortable environment for me and coached me through each take. Amazing price, great experience, and even better photos. Thank you guys!

    — Class of 2027 Senior

  • I 100% recommend Mara & Jake Photography! These two were SO kind, professional, and artistically talented! Not only that, they did all of this for such great prices, especially compared to the usual price of senior photos! They hyped me up during my entire senior session, and they even gave me extra time that I didn’t pay for because they were so into it! The photos arrived in my email quickly, but it was clear that they had put a lot of care into them. I hope to continue watching their business grow!

    — Class of 2026 Parent
