Turkey

Hello! I am a wedding photographer who lives in Turkey but can shoot anywhere in the world. Despite having a bachelor's and master's degree in engineering from Istanbul University and Bogazici University, I decided to turn my hobby into a career. I started to work as a documentary photographer. It was definitely one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life.

I was the first Turkish photographer which was invited as a speaker to the Fearless Photographers Conference (Aachen, Germany -2019), a conference attended by the world's best wedding photographers.

I have photographed weddings in 22 different countries and in many different cities of Turkey and I have met hundreds of wonderful people.

For me, wedding photography is something more than just work, it is as a project that has no beginning or end. It is my passion to document all the moments of that day in an aesthetic and best way. I think the best part of my job is to remind the memories of these emotional or entertaining moments which are irreversible and to make them happy throughout the whole process.

I'm a wedding photographer who loves to capture the key moments of the day. I'm trying to take a part of the wedding day as an eyewitness and produce attractive photos for you.

I believe we, as wedding photographers, have one simple mission; to take the couples back to that special day when they look at their photographs sometime in the future. In that sense, we don't perform our job to provide today's pleasure, but to provide tomorrow's treasure.

I think this is best achieved, not by just showing how beautiful the couple were on the wedding day, but by showing the feelings and emotions they had on that day.

With my photographs, I try to make them feel like they are in that moment again. Judging by the kind words I get from my clients after they receive their images, I can tell I am good at that.

I'm a destination wedding photographer based in Alacati, Turkey and Corfu Island, Greece. My wedding photography style is guided by a sense of intuition, connection and intimacy. I believe that the relationships I develop with the couples are as important as the quality of my images. For me, it's about a connection and sharing the same passion for intimate, happy and simple moments.

Hi. I'm Orçun Yalçın, but you can call me Orya :) I am a wedding photographer. I love to be able to capture a couple's story through a series of beautiful images but still be able to tell that story in one single amazing image.

If I try to explain my signature aesthetic, I can easily say that is a cinematic approach. A love affair with timeless romance, adventurous spirit and raw beauty. I make photographs that capture the feeling of the day and hopefully will still hold their power in 25 years. I am dedicated to giving you photographs that celebrate your life, make your parents proud and your friends may jealous.

Romantic cliff top elopements, intimate backyard celebrations and grand destinations all pique my interest. 2018 will be my tenth year of shooting weddings with locations now including Como, Milan, Paris, Prague, Boston, Hamburg, Folegandros, Bodrum, Istanbul and throughout the Turkey guests ranging from 10 to 1.000 guests.So whether your wedding is on an exotic beach or in your parents' backyard, I would love to be there for you.

Destination weddings-anywhere from Marrakech to Zanzibar; new environments keep me feeling inspired and my work fresh.

I have only a few words but lots of photos to tell my story to you. My job is my soulmate. I love being the third eye of your big day. Traveling and good music can inspire me every single time. If I could have my coffee with a strawberry, it would be enough to make my day.
