I'm always striving to capture diverse locations and engage in various types of photography to enhance my skills. Istanbul boasts numerous hidden gems, and one such place is the Underwater Istanbul Photo Studio, featuring a sizable water tank for photo shoots. You can explore their Instagram account, @underwateristanbul to get a glimpse of their work. Additionally, feel free to reach out to them if you're interested in arranging a photo shoot.

Every photo shoot presents its own set of challenges. Prior to this particular shoot, I had never experienced underwater photography, which added an extra layer of excitement. Additionally, the models were also new to underwater photo shoots, contributing to the unique and unfamiliar aspects of the session.

01

Model

Thanks to @themodelsmgmt helping me about the models. Up to your concept and good styling you can ask agencies for models with a moodboard about your shooting so If they like they can help you.

02

Make Up

I worked with Hande and Burak for this shooting. Hande was with me for the make up and Burak was for the hair. You can see their account from instagram. @handeolmak & @burakilerii

Styling

I utilized dresses provided by the underwater photo studio. You can rent dresses from them. Additionally, my friend and I brought some extra clothing, which we incorporated into the session.

We rented the venue for nearly 2 hours, including time for makeup and hair preparation. Given that none of us had prior experience with underwater photography, we encountered some challenges. Despite the difficulties, I successfully captured the desired shots by the end of the session.
