Absolutely magical photo shoot - My husband and I decided to do a couples photo shoot while on our honeymoon since our wedding was online. We wanted to have some photos to capture the feel of Istanbul while celebrating our union.
We had Ramazan as our photographer and he was perfect! Our session got off to a bumpy start as we were in a car accident right before we were supposed to meet him at our first spot. He was incredibly kind and offered to reschedule if we needed to. We decided to go along with the shoot and I’m so glad we did.
He was very communicative and offered some great ideas for poses and movement at the different locations. He was also incredibly patient, and very supportive as we were a bit sore from the accident and took things at a bit of a more measured pace. I never felt rushed and I cannot stress the absolute pleasure it was to work with him. We feel that he really captured us and some of the breathtaking beauty of Istanbul.
For our locations, we chose to do sunrise at the Ortaköy Mosque, then we took some photos on the Galata Bridge, and we ended in Sultan Ahmet Park.

October 2023 photoshoot with toddler! - We had the pleasure of booking a shoot with Recep at the beginning of October, after finding him through Instagram! His work was incredible and we were so excited for our family shoot!
We had our shoot at Ortakoy, Taht, and seven hills, and were blown away by the results. He was so patient (huge plus with a baby!!) and incredibly helpful with making sure we were posing correctly to get the best shots!
I was extremely pleased with the final edited shots (and to be honest even the originals were just phenomenal!!!!), I wish he could come on all our vacations to capture the beauty!!!

Amazing photo service - RECEP’s photo tour is by far the most pleasant experience I had in Istanbul. He is kind, professional and trying his best to work with you. I landed Istanbul without my luggage’s (airline) lost them, so I ask RECEP if I can reschedule since I don’t have anything to wear. RECEP understands my difficulties and rescheduled for me with an ease. The photo shooting is nice and easy, and I got a lot of amazing photos in Istanbul. Thank you RECEP!!

The BEST Photographer in Istanbul - RECEP is the KINDEST, MOST PROFESSIONAL and MOST RELIABLE Photographer in Istanbul…a true artist, a visionary…a photographer with a fantastic personality! A photo session with him is an experience in itself! Not only does he take your pictures, he tells you everything there is to know about Istanbul, shows you the most interesting places, and the whole session is suited to your needs! The fact that he transports you in his car from one location to the next is another bonus. I received all pictures within a day. He takes many, many pictures, and always makes sure that you are photographed from the most favorable angles, in the most favorable lights! It is truly a pleasure to work with Mr. RECEP! Look no further, book a session with him today to make your Istanbul trip unforgettable!

Wedding photoshoot - Recep was very friendly and booking the photoshoot with him went very smoothly. We have booked a wedding photoshoot in 3 diffierent locations and Recep provided transportation once we met up at the agreed location. Although we have booked 3 location Recep was kind enough to add a fourth location to the shoot. Recep took so many photos and all photos came out very beautiful that it was hard to pick specific ones for editing. It was easy to converse with him during the photoshoot and he has helped us with the poses. It was such an amazing experience and we look forward to booking our future photoshoot with him if we are ever back in Istanbul.

Extremely poor customer experience - I booked a photoshoot specifically for 7am because I was on a time crunch, and the listing says that we "need to start early in the morning". I got a text from my photographer the night before asking to do the photoshoot at 11am instead, which completely messed up my timeline. He agreed to do it at 10am, which was again 3 hours later than when I needed it done, but whatever.
I paid for a photo shoot at multiple locations, and the photographer said I could only get photos near the Hagia Sophia, and he was willing to offer me photos at Seven Hills when it was already part of my package. I did not have any photos taken at any of the other locations mentioned in the listing.
I received the raw files in a relatively timely manner, but It's been about 3 weeks, and I haven't received my edits. The photographer told me he emailed them and has proceeded to ignore me every time I message him saying I didn't receive them.

Photo shoot bait and switch - I booked my experience and asked about a makeup artist. She was AMAZING. She even caught that it would be dark at 7 and suggested the photo shoot be moved to 8 am. The owner agreed with her recommendation. Everything was fine and professional until the day of my shoot. In the advert it says German fountain, blue mosque, Bosporus bridge, location of choice and a few other locations free. That rooftops would be extra. It also says you will get over 400 raw photos of which you need to select 25 for editing. My photographer was 26 minutes late. I was not taken to all the locations, I only received 171 raw photos. When I brought this to the owner attention the photographer reached out to me saying we can meet and finish the shoot for free. What do you mean for free? I already paid for it. I also paid to have my makeup done so I would have to pay again to do my makeup for this issue? Also, they wanted me to rearrange my itinerary to meet again. I am in talks with the owner about this situation and hope this will be resolved.
