Who We Are
As Istanbul Candid Street Photographers, with the power we gain from the synergy that arises from our differences, we want to make our mark in world photography with the moments we capture from the colors, light, and melodic emotions of this geography, and to represent our country with the footprint we leave behind.
Our mission is to bring our country’s street photography to the international level and at the same time to become one of the reference points of street photography in Turkey.
Our approach to photography also reflects our view of life. Our approach to photography is based on the belief that the truth is too extraordinary, simple and complex to be fictionalized, and at the same time beautiful.
We are the runners of a never-ending marathon who have been loving and respecting each other for a long time, running after extraordinary moments in the chaos and unpredictability of the city, in the pursuit of extraordinary moments in mediocrity.

He opened his first solo exhibition at the Istanbul Photography Museum and took part in national and international group exhibitions. An award-winning photographer, Alphan has also participated in numerous photography competitions and festivals.
