Music, Concert, Band & Promo Photography
Match Your Vibe, Style and Stage Presence
Northeast Ohio music photographer serving Akron, Canton, Cleveland, Youngstown & travel

Possessing the prophetic sense of placement, the ability to command mutable lighting and the engineer’s superior angle, Mara captures an entire album’s worth of sound, pain, life and sweat in an instant. She sees those that are only heard. She has the tools, the respect, she commands the medium and the moment.
Musicians love Mara because she can do what genetics failed to do: make us look good."
