Reservation
Before the day your shooting you have to make reservaton for this store. Up to high season you cannot find a place for shooting. Its open nearly everyday and from 8:00am to 20:00pm.
One of the best photoshooting area in Cappadocia is carpet stores. The rich textures and vibrant colors of the carpets can make for some truly stunning images.
For this shooting mostly I am using Sultan Carpets in Göreme. This store was used for a house before and with old stlyle courtyard gives oppotunities to shoot also from Its terrace with a different angels.

LIGHTING
Natural light works best to bring out the vivid colors and intricate patterns of the carpets. Try to schedule your shoot during the early morning or late afternoon when the light is softer.
03
COMPOSITION
Pay attention to the layout of the carpets. You can create interesting compositions by focusing on the patterns and how they align. Try different angles—overhead shots and close-ups can all work well.
04
COLOR AND CONTRAST
Carpets often feature bold, contrasting colors. Play around with these elements to make your photos pop. You might also experiment with different exposure settings to see how they affect the colors and mood of your images.

Permissions and Respect
Store guys hellp you to set a composition but always ask for permission from the store owner before starting your shoot. Be respectful of their space and business, ensuring you don't disrupt their work or customers.
