JOURNAL

Field notes.

Notes gathered between shoots, location guides and process pieces. From Cappadocia, from the bottom of my camera bag.

SUNRISE SHOOT

Hundreds of balloons, one frame: yours.

The twenty minutes that made Cappadocia world-famous happen only once each morning — and you're standing at the centre of the set as the balloons rise together. As blue hour melts into golden hour, you take home one story shot in two different lights.

  • Weather guarantee: flights cancelled, your date moves for free
  • Blue hour + golden hour — two light palettes in one shoot

SUNSET SHOOT

The valleys turn orange, the stage is yours.

If early alarms aren't your thing, sunset is Cappadocia's best-kept secret: the crowds leave, the valleys empty, the light turns to copper and the shadows stretch long. Add horses running into the sun — the frame everyone asks about.

  • Zero crowds — the valleys and fairy chimneys are all yours
  • Optional horses running at sundown (the viral frame)
  • No flight permits involved — a plan that never falls through
Golden light 95%
Tranquility 90%
Plan flexibility 96%
  • 90 min pre-sundown
  • 60–90 min
  • Year-round
  • Crowd-free
