Session 1
Define your
photographic project
What do you want to
remember of Istanbul?
The mosques, the tea glasses,
the Bosphorus?
The colors, the contrasts,
the textures?
Think of what can bring you back to how it felt to be there.
Find photos you love &
ask yourself why you do.
What makes you love them?
This will be done all together,
in a quiet café.

To the places you love,
where life is happening,
where that little thing will be.
I’ll bring you to places you probably don’t know
With your camera or phone,
my advice & feedbacks,
you will manage to create the images you want.
PS: don’t forget that photography is about trials & errors.

Session 5
Edition:
Selecting your best work
You took maaaaany photos?
That’s very normal & NOW is the time to dive into your work.
And then what?
The Edition!
Aka “Selecting your photos within the spectrum of your project”.
Making choices is hard.
Making choices with an intention in mind is much easier.
This will take place in a quiet café
or in my home.
Session 6

Now that you have your final photo series, here comes the time to process your images:
Contrast, colors, brightness are well-known.

Icing on the cake, you will witness your photos being printed out.
This will be in a printing studio.
