Md requires the notary "receive satisfactory proof that the person making the acknowledgement is the person who signed the document"
Here is definition of satisfactory proof.
Satisfactory proof is that amount of proof which is sufficient to convince the notary public that the person making the acknowledgment is the person described in the document, and the one who executed it. A good rule for a notary public to follow would be to require such proof of identification as he or she would require to cash a very large check for that person. ♦
Using this definition, a good yearbook photo would work.
