We present an extensive catalog of non-parametric structural properties derived from optical and mid-infrared imaging for 4585 galaxies from the MaNGA survey. DESI and WISE imaging are used to extract surface brightness profiles in the g, r, z, W1, W2 photometric bands. Our optical photometry takes advantage of the automated algorithm AutoProf and probes surface brightnesses that typically reach below 29 mag/arcsec^2 in the r band, while our WISE photometry achieves 28 mag/arcsec^2 in the W1 band. Neighbour density measures and central/satellite classifications are also provided for a large sub-sample of the MaNGA galaxies. Highlights of our analysis of galaxy light profiles include: (i) an extensive comparison of galaxian structural properties that illustrates the robustness of non-parametric extraction of light profiles over parametric methods; (ii) the ubiquity of bimodal structural properties suggesting the existence of galaxy families in multiple dimensions; and, (iii) an appreciation that structural properties measured relative to total light, regardless of the fractional level, are uncertain. We study galaxy scaling relations based on photometric parameters, and present detailed comparisons with literature and theory. Salient features of this analysis include the near-constancy of the slope and scatter of the size-luminosity and size-stellar mass relations for late-type galaxies with wavelength, and the saturation of the central surface density, measured within 1 kpc, for elliptical galaxies with M* > 10.7 Msol (corresponding to Sigma_1 ~ 10^{10} Msol/kpc^2). The multi-band photometry, environmental parameters, and structural scaling relations presented are useful constraints for stellar population and galaxy formation models.
