Autumn Photos in Istanbul

Autumn has arrived in Istanbul, and it is one of the best times of the year to be photographed in the city. The summer heat is gone, the light is softer and lower in the sky, and the trees in the parks and along the Bosphorus turn yellow, orange and red. The busiest part of the tourist season is over too, which makes it easier to find quiet spots for a relaxed photo session.

If you are visiting Istanbul in the fall, or you live here and want portraits, couple or family photos, do not miss the colours of the season. Hiring a professional photographer means you can enjoy the walk while someone else takes care of the light, the locations and the timing, and you go home with memories that last. Below is a gallery of autumn sessions photographed by Kemal Onur Ozman, who works in both Istanbul and Prague.

To plan an autumn photo session of your own, get in touch early in the season. The best colours usually last only a few weeks, and morning sessions offer the softest light and the fewest people.
