I’m a Chicago-based commercial and fine art photographer with over 25 years of experience in graphic design, editorial publishing, and digital content creation. Originally from southern Serbia, I’ve built a creative career that blends artistic vision with professional precision.
Since moving to the U.S. in 2004, I’ve worked with clients across industries—capturing everything from corporate headshots and product photography to landscapes, street scenes, and school portraits. My work has taken me coast to coast, photographing diverse cultures and iconic locations—from the Bahamas to San Francisco, Niagara Falls, Salt Lake City, and the Grand Canyon.
With a portfolio of over 10,000 portraits and a deep understanding of brand storytelling, I specialize in creating visuals that connect, inspire, and elevate. Whether it’s a commercial campaign or a candid moment in nature, I approach every frame with creativity, clarity, and care.

Leskovac throughout history in pictures
Leskovac Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
published July, 2013 by Amazon
This second edition, My Homeland: Leskovac Then and Now, offers a comprehensive visual and narrative journey through the evolution of Leskovac, a city in southern Serbia. Richly illustrated and thoughtfully expanded, the book captures the city’s transformation over time while showcasing its present-day character.
Although Leskovac is known for its vibrant dialect, the renowned Leskovac Grill Festival, the Summer Festival, and its natural and cultural landmarks, much of its charm remains underappreciated beyond Serbia’s borders. Nestled in a broad valley surrounded by scenic mountains, Leskovac is home to centuries-old monasteries, the Sijarinska Spa, Motel Predejane, and significant archaeological sites such as Justiniana Prima near Lebane, Skobaljić Town near Vučje, the ethno-archaeological park on Hisar, Gradac near Zlokućane, the necropolis in Mala Kopasnica, and the enchanting Vlasina Lake.
Leskovac holds immense potential as a cultural and tourist destination for international visitors. This edition marks a renewed effort to present the city’s historical depth and contemporary vibrancy to a wider audience.
