FAQ

ask me
anything

What kind of photography do you specialize in?

Portrait, fashion, beauty, and brand photography. I work in studio and on location across Istanbul, with a focus on clean lighting, strong composition, and images that look intentional rather than accidental.

Where are you based and do you travel?

I’m based in Istanbul and available for shoots across the city and surrounding areas. Travel outside Istanbul is possible depending on the project — just ask.

How do I book a session?

Fill out the contact form with your project details and I’ll get back to you within 24 hours with availability and next steps.

How far in advance do I need to book?

For individual portrait sessions, a few days’ notice is usually enough. For fashion shoots, editorials, or brand campaigns, 1-2 weeks ahead is ideal to allow time for planning and preparation.

What's included in the session price?

All sessions include pre-shoot planning, the shoot itself, image selection, and full post-production on the agreed number of final images. Creative direction is included for fashion and brand work.

How many photos will I receive?

It depends on the package — the number of final edited images is listed with each option. If you need more, additional images can be added for an extra fee.

Do you provide RAW files?

I deliver high-resolution edited images ready for web, print, or social. RAW files are not included by default but can be provided for an additional fee.

What's your turnaround time?

Portrait sessions are typically delivered within 3-5 days. Fashion and brand shoots within 5-7 days. Rush delivery is available if you’re working to a tight deadline.

Who owns the photos after the shoot?

You receive full usage rights for the agreed images for personal or commercial use. If you need exclusive licensing or usage rights beyond standard commercial use, let me know and I’ll include that in the quote.

What gear do you use?

I shoot with a Sony A7 IV and a range of professional lenses like Sigma 24-70 F2.8. Lighting setups vary by project — studio flash, continuous lighting, or natural light depending on what the work calls for. Post-production is done in Adobe Photoshop and other software.

Do you speak Turkish?

I’m based in Istanbul and learning the language. Sessions and primary communication are in English, but I work comfortably alongside Turkish-speaking clients, stylists, and teams.

What if I need something custom?

If none of the listed options fit your project, just reach out and describe what you need. I’ll put together a clear custom quote based on your goals, timeline, and budget.
