Independent Banker - June 2024 - 76

OUT OF OFFICE
To fundraise for his
community, Mark Jones
donates photography
prints to local
organizations' auctions.
Mark Jones: Through his lens
The president and CEO of $1.3 billion-asset Saco & Biddeford Savings Bank in Saco,
Maine, lives to capture the moment through photography-not only as an outlet for
his creativity but also as a way to support his community.
I got into photography way back
in high school. ... I just love being
in the moment, catching things and
slowing down. I get to see things I
wouldn't otherwise notice.
What influences [my photography]
is a couple of things. It's in part
being able to take someone to a place
that they never would have gone, but
the other part is just being able to do
something cool with it. It's the stress
relief too; it's my outlet.
Last winter, a friend and I paddled
out to this distant island at 3 a.m.
with temps of 10 degrees to shoot the
Milky Way and the sunrise over one of
Maine's lighthouses. ... We got back,
and we posted some pictures of it. And
some people said, " Mark, we would
never see this unless we were crazy
enough to do it. "
Shutterbugs 4 Charity [was
created in 2019]. ... There are over
40 different organizations we support
through cash donations, but [we
also give] them six-foot canvas
prints of my photography, among
others', that they can auction at their
galas. [Last year,] we raised about
$100,000. That all goes back [to
the community].
I have never been to the Canadian
Rockies, so I think that's my
number one place right now for the
next [photography] trip.
