I booked a surprise proposal wedding shoot with Max, and it was amazing! Communication was smooth, and the price was reasonable. He took us to a secret location early in the morning, where we had a clear view of the balloons rising. As a bonus, there were no other people around since the spot is a bit more challenging to reach. The pictures and drone videos turned out perfectly. I would highly recommend him! :)

Max was absolutely incredible during our photoshoot in Cappadocia! From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and made the whole experience feel so effortless and fun. He knew the best spots for breathtaking views, and his attention to detail was unmatched. The way he captured the hot air balloons and the stunning scenery in the background was magical, making every shot feel like a work of art. If you’re looking for a photographer who can truly bring the beauty of Cappadocia to life, Max is your guy. Highly recommend!

My husband and I recently visited Goreme in Cappadocia for vacation. It was on our bucket list to ride a hot air balloon and we thought it would be nice to capture our time there with a photo shoot as well. We decided to do a photo shoot with the gorgeous balloons at sunrise and when I started doing research, I found Max with Maxino Photo and loved his photos and the point of view he captured behind his lens. I sent a message and he responded same day answering all my questions. We set up a date and I sent deposit online. The day of the shoot, Max was on time, friendly and very easy to work with. We stayed and Divan Cave Suites and we took a lot of our photos on the rooftop balcony at our hotel, and we also drove to a nearby location to have more photos taken. If you are looking for a photographer while in the Cappadocia region, you will not go wrong with Max. We loved the way our photos turned out and love that we have a keepsake memory of our time in Turkey. Thank you, Max! 🩷

Max was great. I was with my young son (2 years) and we were not able to go up in a balloon, so I arranged for a photo shoot with Max . They drove us around some amazing locations and took most beautiful pictures. Max and the driver were both a patient with my young son whenever he was playing up as two year old two. I can only recommend highly.
