Street Photo Walk with a local and true expert on Istanbul

I had a great photo walk!! Not only Zerah was a wonderful person, knew the city very well, but also as a bonus, she is an archeologist and studying to get her credentials as an official guide for Instanbul. She was able to take me places off the beaten path and also provided me with the history and historical context of some of them. In addition, Zerah and her husband run a business that organizes small group photography trips around the world. If you plan to go on a street photo walk in Istanbul, I highly recommend booking with Zehra.

Local knowledge meets photographic expertise

Booking this tour was absolutely worth it. Even though it wasn’t my first time in the city, Zehra showed me new corners and perspectives. She can open doors to places that would otherwise remain closed and approaches people with ease—giving you access to photos you simply wouldn’t be able to take otherwise. On top of that, she’s an extremely talented photographer (just search for Zehra Arslan Ceylan to see for yourself). This combination of deep local knowledge, fluency in Turkish, and a strong understanding of photography makes this tour a real highlight for anyone more interested in street photography than in the usual postcard shots.

Perfect Photography Experience

Zehra did an outstanding job as a guide and photographer. In addition to helping me get great photos she toured us through some "off the beaten path" locations that we would never have seen on our own. Very friendly and helpful instructor and guide. She definitely knows and can teach street photography. Thank you for a great experience!!!!!!

Operator response

Dear John, thank you very much for your nice words. We didn't have enough light because of the weather but could work at some interesting places.

Istanbul photo tour with Zehra

I changed upon Zehra's photography workshop/ photo walking tour while googling. I was lucky to have encountered Zehra - we spent 4 hours, taking pictures, walking. Zehra is a great teacher, she's patient, kind - but will also share what needs correction or what can be better. Her passion for photography, coupled with her love for Istanbul, people and the hidden magic, makes this a memorable tour. This is one of the best things I did in Istanbul - and will definitely do another tour with Zehra on my next visit. What will you learn and experience: 1. Non touristy streets; 2. Guilds (great for street portraits) 3. Zehra s love for patterns, reflections and making extraordinary moments out of the day to day
