5.00In addition to great motifs, I learned a lot about how to stage people. Istanbul is ideally suited for this. Kerem is an artist and conveys his passion with vigour and fun. I had a wonderful day with him and took great photos.

5.00Kerem was an amazing guide. Not only did he provide hands on photography training that will forever change how I will take photos, but the settings he chose allowed me to see and learn about parts of Istanbul I would never have known about. Kerem is incredibly knowledgable about Istanbul, and having worked in London, the Middle East and Africa, Kerem had many interesting stories and perspectives to share. Absolutely one of the best experiences I have had while visiting a new city. Thank you Kerem!!!
Kerem the magnificent!

5.00Kerem was simply awesome. He was punctual to the minute! He rang me the day before to plan my experience. His knowledge of photography was vast. He had a friendly and supportive manner. He helped me push the boundaries such as approach and technique in street photography. It was a truly memorable day. I would definitely want to go out shooting with him again!
Incredible Photography Adventure

5.00My photography tour of Istanbul with Kerem and Istanbul Photography Tours was a great adventure. From bustling streets and quiet neighborhoods to iconic landmarks and famous attractions, he unveiled an Istanbul far beyond a tourist experience. Kerem’s ability to connect with novice shooters and seasoned photographers alike gave him the ability to provide insightful tips on composition, lighting, and storytelling. His knowledge of the city, keen eye for detail and knack for capturing fleeting moments gave me an opportunity to see an Istanbul I could never find by myself. Our adventure allowed me to see Istanbul and learn about the city while capturing incredible images. If you want to explore and capture Istanbul’s spirit through a camera lens, I wholeheartedly recommend a photo adventure with Istanbul Photography Tours and Kerem.
Best way to photograph Istanbul

5.00This was a fantastic tour--I did it solo as an photo enthusiast with emphasis on city scapes and long exposure shots. We shifted the tour to later PM and toured through sunset on the Bosphorus. If you are tired of standard tours where you are rushed to get good photos, this is a great option where the photos and ideal locations/lighting are the emphasis. Sorry I could not share examples as the site was not accepting uploads.

5.00Kerem provided an excellent overview of what makes a brilliant street photograph. We were able to review my photos from previous tours with him and Kerem assisted in editing then to a high visual impact and appeal. Priceless!
Istanbul through the eyes of a local

5.00I was on a tour that ended in Istanbul but wanted a Lil more time so extended my stay for one more day. I enjoy photography so found Kerem & liked what he offered. This was a great experience. He takes you to see the real life Istanbul not the touristy spots. I gor to experience how everyday people live in Istanbul & where they live & work. His photography tricks were great. The way he sees the world & how to use light was very cool. He documents real life. I did wish I had stayed an extra day to do the touristy stuff but there is always next time. Thanks Kerem for a showing me your Istanbul. Can't wait to post my pictures.
