Mara Zalite Photography is a corporate event and celebration photographer serving Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the greater NYC area.
Mara Zalite is a Sunset Park, Brooklyn-based photographer specializing in capturing candid, high-quality moments in fast-paced event environments so you walk away with images that feel natural, polished, and genuinely reflect the energy of the room.
She has photographed corporate and networking events across NYC, and with her background working at an investment bank, a small business, and nonprofits, Mara Zalite is very comfortable navigating all sorts of environments and people (as a Tulane University cum laude graduate, Mara worked as a data analyst at an investment bank for 5 years and then ran all sides of the business of an art studio in Dumbo, Brooklyn for 4 years).
Mara delivers clean, professional coverage without interrupting the flow of your event, candid + key moments (networking, speakers, details, awards, atmosphere), 4-business-day turnaround with a shareable gallery of downloadable, high-resolution photos, next-day highlights upon request, all strong images included (no limits) at a rate starting at $350/hour.
When not documenting your moments, Mara leads the New York Latvian folk dancing group “Jumalīte,” plans events within the New York Latvian community, and fosters her unhealthy obsession with crafting.

What’s it like working with Mara?
I’ve been there: experienced working in corporate, small business, and non-profit environments as an employee and leader, I’ve always been comfortable in offices, with executives, in art studios, with kids, within communities. I’ll blend right in so you can stay present, but will step up and call the shots when the moment calls for it.
I’m all about capturing the real, in-between moments: the ones that happen when no one’s looking but say everything about the energy of your event. And don’t worry about photo limits; if it’s part of your story, I’m getting it.
