We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our photographer in Istanbul. From the very beginning, they were incredibly kind, friendly, and professional, making us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. Communication was excellent and they were always easy to reach, responsive, and accommodating. What we appreciated most was how open they were to our ideas and vision for the photos. They listened carefully to what we wanted, offered helpful suggestions, and worked with...
Best service! My wife and I totally loved the photoshoot. Emre was our photographer, and he was super respectful and professional.
I had an amazing experience with Uğur Cankurt in Istanbul. He is exceptionally pleasant, patient, and easy to work with. Despite his very reasonable pricing, he delivers a top‑tier experience. He took all the photos with such dedication and calm energy that the 45‑minute shoot felt like a full celebrity session. If you’re looking for someone who combines professionalism with warmth, Uğur is the one to book.
I had a very great experience with Uğur. He’s truly professional and extremely patient. My pictures and videos were so detailed, very immaculate! I explained the look I was going for and he executed! I would highly recommend to book with Istanbul Portraits during your next visit to Istanbul, Turkey! :-)
Had such an amazing experience with our photo session, it was extremely professional and the photos came out beautifully. Highly recommend .
Very happy with the final results. There was a delay at first, but everything was resolved quickly and professionally. The edited photos turned out great, and I appreciate the photographer and his team following through and making things right.
Really great experience, the photographers and the whole team is nice, I am not even good at posing and taking pictures but they will help you through it and the costumes are also great
He was very polite and helped me and my husband feel comfortable during our photoshoot. He even carried our bag around for us! He also offered to take us to some extra beautiful locations that we did not know of. I would recommend him 1000 times. Not to mention his photos are great! :)
It was a pleasure having our photos taken with Istanbulportrait. From the very beginning, everything was perfect and perfectly synchronized. I highly recommend them, and I'm taking home the best photos I've ever had taken. 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
