What to expect
We will start shooting In Sultanahmet Square Fountain. It is in the middle of Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. So we will use these two landmarks as our main backdrops. The biggest church of Eastern Ortadox and biggest mosque of Ottoman.
Hürrem Sultan Hamam's walls will be another spot.
Then we will walk to Topkapi Palace entrance and visit the Imperial Gate and Hagia Sophia walls.
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.
Fountain of Ahmet III
Fountain of Ahmed III the symbol of the Tulip period of the 1700s. We will see history from the 6th till 18th century.
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.
Eminonu Pier
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.
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.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
