Planning

After booking, we discuss your vision, style and intention for the session.

Whether you prefer something minimal and elegant or soft and romantic, everything is thoughtfully curated.

Location & timing

Sunrise is the most iconic time for a solo photoshoot in Cappadocia, especially with hot air balloons in the sky.

We can also choose quieter valleys, textured rock formations or panoramic viewpoints depending on the mood you want.

Locations are always selected based on light, season and privacy.

During the photoshoot

The session flows naturally.

We walk, pause, move, breathe.

No rush. No pressure.

You experience Cappadocia while I capture your presence within it.

The result

Elegant, timeless portraits that feel like you — not like a trend.

Veronika — An explorer’s solo story in Cappadocia

An intimate solo photoshoot in Cappadocia shaped by architecture, light and mood.

We created two carefully curated outfits inspired by an explorer aesthetic — natural tones, structured silhouettes and timeless textures.

Photographed inside ancient cave churches at sunset, the session was defined by warm light, dust in the air and dramatic stone formations.

The landscape did not overpower the subject.

It framed her.

This story is about quiet confidence, presence and harmony with the environment.

Alexandra — A solo story with horses in Cappadocia

A spring solo photoshoot in Cappadocia focused on movement and natural strength.

We started at a ranch with running horses — open space, dust, sunlight and rhythm.

The energy was powerful yet effortless.


The second location was Zelve Valley, where the atmosphere shifted into something softer and more reflective.

Hot air balloons appeared unexpectedly in the distance, adding a subtle Cappadocia touch — but they were never the main character.

The story was always about presence.

About freedom.

About standing confidently in your own chapter.

Frequently asked questions

I’ve never done a solo photoshoot before — is that okay?

Absolutely. Most of my clients are not professional models.

My guidance helps you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera.

What should I wear for a solo photoshoot?

Wardrobe plays an important role in creating a cohesive and elegant look.

I recommend:

• neutral or earthy tones

• flowing fabrics that move naturally in the wind

• timeless silhouettes rather than trendy pieces

• minimal accessories

You may bring 1–2 outfit options depending on the package and timing.

After booking, I provide personal styling guidance to ensure your look complements the landscape and feels elevated.

Can I change outfits?

Yes, depending on the selected package and location logistics.

Typically, one to two outfits work beautifully for a sunrise session.

What if hot air balloons don’t fly?

Hot air balloons depend on weather conditions.

If they don’t fly, we still create beautiful sunrise portraits in the valleys — soft light and landscape textures remain stunning even without balloons.

How long does a solo photoshoot last?

Most solo sessions last around one-two hours, depending on location and light conditions.
