About Jack Mara

Art that speaks to the heart.

I’m Jack Mara, and I photograph Cape Cod the way it feels—the quiet calm, the shifting light, the moments that invite you to pause. What began as my retirement passion has grown into a collection of fine art photography that now brings warmth, beauty, and meaning to homes across the country.

 Every image is more than a scene. It’s a feeling—a piece that you’ll love not just today, but every time you walk past it.

 The name JibeMaster comes from sailing: a jibe is a bold change in direction. That’s what the right artwork can do—shift your perspective, soothe your spirit, transport you to the coast and remind you of what matters most.

 This isn’t just wall art. It’s a reflection of you, your journey, and the spaces you cherish.

Since committing to becoming a top fine art landscape photographer, I’ve been recognized with a number of prestigious awards and achievements, including:

• 2019 - Image of the Year - Upper Cape Camera Club for Icy Ballet

• 2019 - Image of the Year - New England Camera Club Council (19 Clubs) for Icy Ballet

• 2024 - Upper Cape Camera Club competition - cumulative point runner-up for the year - Advanced

• 2025 - Upper Cape Camera Club competition - cumulative point winner for the year - Advanced

My objective is to produce images that impact you by creating unexpected beauty that forces you “stop and pause, if just for a moment, but remembered forever”.
