Türkiye · PHOTOGRAPHY SESSIONS
Good photo sessions fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 6 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
You’ll leave your Cappadocia hotel before sunrise, watch balloons prepare for takeoff over Rose Valley, then follow them to Love Valley for photos among fairy chimneys. A photographer takes and shares your images, while hotel transfers, snacks, and hot drinks are included. Balloon rides cost extra.
“Great experience overall, non pretentious - good value for money”
Meet Recep at the German Fountain for a private two-hour Istanbul photo shoot. Pose at Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Galata Bridge, Ortaköy, and the Bosphorus Bridge while he guides you to quieter angles, directs your poses, and sends edited photos quickly.
“This was a wonderful opportunity to have great photos taken in some of the top spots in Istanbul, but also to get out of the old city and visit the new city. I now have a collection of photographs which prove I have been to this wonderful city, but some great experiences as well. I was even taken to the cat museum after I expressed a fascination with the amount of cats in the city. It was raining, but our spirits weren’t dampened.”
Meet photographer Elmir near Istiklal Caddesi for a 1 to 2-hour English-language photo walk. Pose by the historic Red Tram, Galata Tower, Galata Bridge, and New Mosque while hearing local stories. Receive edited photos by email or WhatsApp within the day.
“Elmir is very professional and did a great job. I really recommend viator photography for anyone looking for a professional photoshoot in istanbul.”
You’ll be picked up in Göreme for a private sunrise photoshoot at 2 to 3 Cappadocia locations, often including Love Valley or Red Valley. Choose a complimentary flying dress, follow pose guidance from English or Turkish speaking photographers such as Barış, and receive a large set of images with edited selections.
“It was an incredible shoot. The photographers, Bariş and Iřem, were fantastic—guiding me with poses, even helping with my bags. But what truly set this experience apart was the tour operator. My original shoot was scheduled for a day when the balloons were cancelled, yet without me asking, they kindly rescheduled me for a day with the balloon view. They didn’t have to, but they did—and that gesture made my entire trip, since seeing the balloons was the reason I went to Kapadokya. Book with them, and thank me later—you won’t regret it.”
Meet your English or Turkish-speaking photographer at Sultan Ahmet Park for a private 15 to 45 minute shoot around Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. Seth and Baki have helped families, couples, and solo visitors find strong photo spots and natural poses. Edited digital images arrive within 48 hours.
“I was so happy to book this experience for my family's trip in Istanbul. Baki is a fantastic and patient photographer. He guided us to the best photo zones and helped us with posing. I now have some wonderful and professional photos to remember my trip by. The price is also unbeatable. Great value and I would definitely recommend to anybody.”
You’ll ride toward Baba Dağ, receive a safety briefing, then fly tandem above Ölüdeniz and its Blue Lagoon for 20 to 40 minutes. Choose from five daily departures, including a sunset flight. Pilots such as Hüseyin Karadaş and Sunay have earned praise for calm handling and good photos.
“çok keyifli bir deneyimdi, Pilotum Hüseyin Karadaş'ın donanımlı oluşu uçuşumu oldukça keyifli kıldı, kolay bir kalkış ve iniş yaptık, bir süre paraşütü benim kullanmamı sağlaması güzel bir anı oldu. Deniz aşağıda, yukarıda gökyüzü ve ikisinin arasında ben:) muhteşemdi. Gökyüzünden aşağıyı izlerken bölgeyi göstererek anlatması (Şurası Kelebekler Vadisi, şurası Fethiye merkez, şurası Kıdrak plajı vs ) farklı bakış açısı kattı. Bölgenin sunduğu muhteşem manzara ve havanın da güzel oluşuyla unutulmayacak bir gün yaşadım. Artık bence paraşütle uçmak, 1.sınıf uçmanın farklı bir versiyonu:) teşekkürlerrrrr”
Pick a strait, a valley or a stretch of coast.
