Best Photo Spots in Cairo

Cairo, the bustling metropolis on the banks of the Nile, is a captivating canvas for photographers seeking a rich tapestry of history and culture. From the iconic Pyramids of Giza, where ancient wonders stand against the backdrop of a modern city, to the historic treasures of Islamic Cairo, with its ornate mosques and narrow alleyways, this city offers a diverse range of photo opportunities. Wander through the vibrant Khan el-Khalili market to capture the vibrant colors and textures of Egyptian street life, or photograph the serene beauty of the city's parks and gardens. Cairo is a city where the past meets the present, and its dynamic energy and timeless beauty make it an enchanting destination for photographers with a passion for storytelling through images.

Manar was amazing from before we even met. I asked to make our shoot a surprise engagement proposal and she helped make it happen every step of the way.

During the photoshoot, she made sure we were comfortable and having fun. Afterward, we were blown away by how amazing each picture was.

Very thankful for Manar creating such a special memory for us!-Brandon & LexiView Photographer profile
Manar is amazing!

As soon as we finished our shoot, my husband and I couldn’t stop talking about the amazing time we had!

We did a shoot with the pyramids, and it was exactly what I was looking for in a special birthday photoshoot.

Manar was great at direction and it was so much fun.

Would definitely recommend again and again!-AngelicaView Photographer profile
Our experience with Manar was beyond expectations. She excels at her work and knows the best poses and places to get the most impactful and memorable pictures.

She was very professional, friendly, and easy to work with from the beginning. Our photographs are stunning, and we couldn't be happier with the final product.

We highly recommend her to capture your memories in Egypt!-SelineView Photographer profile
Wonderful photos and photographer! <3

My mom and I loved the session, and it was one of our favorite experiences in Egypt.

We loved to have these memories captured in photos and highly recommend booking with Manar as she captured us with unique perspectives of the pyramids.

We had fun and appreciated Manar's kindness and professionalism. Thank you, Manar!-ItzelView Photographer profile
Manar was wonderful to work with! She was responsive and easy to communicate with. Also, we had to adjust our appointment due to changing tours and she was super accommodating.

We love the photos that she took and with three teenagers she really knew how to handle their (lack of...) enthusiasm and get the best photos.

We highly recommend her for families visiting from the US, or anywhere!-TraciView Photographer profile
Was hands down one of the best photographers I have ever hired. He took amazing photos of my family!-P PatelView Photographer profile
Manar was wonderful to work with. She is an extremely professional and talented photographer. Her knowledge of best photo locations and angles made the shoot really special. We love our images. Thanks again!!-SandraView Photographer profile
Manar was the best we could have asked for. She made sure that our special day went as we had imagined it. The pictures were amazing, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in Cairo.-AnishView Photographer profile
