One day in 2005 I saw a friend’s wedding photos, and everything changed after that. Those wedding photos were the most natural and sincere photos I have ever seen to that date. Some thing hit me that day, I made up my mind to photograph my family and friends. I wanted to capture the youth and aged from an artistic perspective. By coincidence I met Muammer Yanmaz, who opened the doors of the world of photography to me. Now days I am photographing almost everything, but I have a special interest in editorial and studio portraits.

2005 senesinde bir yakinimin dügün fotograflarini gördüm ve hayatim o günden sonra degisti. O güne kadar görmüs oldugum en dogal, samimi ve anlamli karelerdi. Ve o gün kara verdim, ben de ailemin ve sevdiklerimin gençliklerini ve yasliliklarini sonsuza tasimaliydim. Bu kararin devaminda Muammer Yanmaz ile tanistim ve Muammer fotografcilik dünyasinin kapilarini bana acti.
