Getting to know Aleksandra Mandic

Aleksandra Mandic has made Dubai her second home since 2010 to pursue her passion for family and newborn photography. Her studio is a place where she can creatively capture and preserve cherished memories, bringing joy to both adults and children.

Since childhood, she was drawn to pictures. Instead of watching cartoons, she enjoyed flipping through magazines and admiring the images. As she grew older, she began exploring photography through her father's camera. Eventually, she decided to pursue photography as her field.

She then travelled from Montenegro to Italy to finish her master's degree. Later, she relocated to Dubai to establish her own studio where she could express her creativity by capturing family moments including maternity photos, newborn photos, and other treasured memories.

The Value of Strong Relationships

Alexandra builds strong relationships with her clients and emphasizes the importance of creating a fun and comfortable atmosphere to capture the best photos. She says:”Though naturally shy, my job has pushed me to connect with others and capture stunning pictures”.

Aleksandra enjoys living in the Emirates for its safety, comfort, luxury, and cultural diversity. The country's openness to different races and cultures made it even more appealing and opens up many horizons for continuous development and learning.
