Welcome to Mary Lee’s Photography 

At Mary Lee’s Photography, I believe every photograph should tell a story — your story. Whether I’m capturing a high school senior’s once-in-a-lifetime milestone, the laughter of a family, the personality of a beloved pet, or a polished professional headshot, my goal is always the same: to create timeless images that reflect who you truly are.

Based in Mendocino County, I specialize in High School Seniors, Family & Children, Pet Photography, and Headshots. I take pride in creating sessions that feel relaxed, natural, and enjoyable. From our first conversation to the final gallery, I guide you every step of the way so you feel confident, comfortable, and excited about your experience.

Photography is more than just taking pictures — it’s about preserving memories you’ll cherish for years to come. Let’s create something meaningful together.

SENIORS

My senior portrait sessions are designed to showcase who you are at this unforgettable moment in your life. I specialize in outdoor sessions, using natural light and beautiful locations to create portraits that feel authentic, relaxed, and uniquely you. Whether we’re capturing golden hour glow, open fields, forest paths, or your favorite local spot, we’ll create images that reflect your personality and this exciting new chapter.

FAMILY

Family portraits are one of the most meaningful investments you can make—freezing time and preserving the connections that matter most. At Mary Lee’s Photography, I create a relaxed, enjoyable, and stress-free experience so your family can simply be yourselves. From beautifully posed portraits to those genuine, candid moments in between, I focus on capturing the love, laughter, and little details that tell your unique story.

WHAT WE LOVE

CHILDREN ARE THE LIGHT

There’s nothing more magical than the curiosity and laughter of childhood. We love capturing the little expressions, silly giggles, and sweet moments that make your child unique. These portraits will become priceless treasures for your family.

Where Personality Meets Portrait...

Why I love creating headshots

A FIRST IMPRESSION THAT MATTERS

Headshots are more than just professional photos—they’re an opportunity to showcase confidence, personality, and the best version of yourself. At Mary Lee's Photography, we believe a great headshot tells a story and opens doors, whether for your career, portfolio, or personal branding. Every session is designed to make you feel comfortable and look your absolute best, capturing images that reflect who you are and the goals you’re working toward. It’s about celebrating your individuality and creating portraits that make a lasting impression.

A Smooth, Personalized Photography Experience

Choosing the right portrait photographer is important, and I’m proud to offer a customized, boutique experience that goes far beyond a standard session. Based in beautiful Mendocino County, I serve throughout Northern and Southern California, creating meaningful, heirloom-quality artwork through a process designed to be enjoyable, stress-free, and truly personal.
