What to expect

  1. Sultanahmet Square

  4. Column of Constantine

    Column of Constantine will be another important landmark that we will visit. It is a Roman monumental column built for Roman emperor Constantine the Great to commemorate the dedication of Constantinople. Built in 328 and it is the oldest Constantinian monument in Istanbul and stood in the centre of the Forum of Constantine.

    The first shooting in the cistern will be underground and I will use artifical light. It will be off camera lighting and looks natural.
    The second one will be open air shooting with natural light.
  5. Fountain of Ahmet III

    We will see history from the 6th till 18th century.
  6. Galata Koprusu

    The Galata Bridge is a bridge that spans the Golden Horn in Istanbul. First, we will take a photo shoot with anglers and sea view on this two-storey bridge. Then we will use the lower floor. Both sides of the lower floor have the best views of the city. From here we will be able to watch the magnificent Süleymaniye Mosque.

    There will be an open-air photo shoot in the entire Eminönü area.
  7. Eminonu Pier
    10m
    We will see the classic boats used in public transportation, one of the symbols of Istanbul. Traditional fish boats will also be our next backdrop.
  8. Eminonu Square

    Our last spot will be seafront at Eminönü. Now we will use the living city as our backgrounds. 

    There is a wonderful view of Istanbul right next to the ferry pier. Seagulls flying in the background, ships in motion, Golden Horn, Marmara sea, Karaköy, Galata Tower and Galata Bridge will form our background.
