"I love photography because it is a reminder for all the special moments we had. When we get older and everybody is gone and even no memories exist anymore, those captured moments will let us live forever."
On instagram I was acting like I was looking for a couple to shoot for free. Tolgas cousin was the one who had ‘sent’ me some pictures of Tolga and his girlfriend Selin. After a few days I told Selin, that I would love to shoot them. Tolga, his cousin and me were constantly pretending like I choose them randomly over all the other couples who sent me messages on instagram. In the meanwhile Tolga and me were planing every single detail, we met and drunk some coffee and hat a secret language for the proposal. – Wind, rain and even snow were challenging me to handle my camera, it was so hard to focus because of the fog. I have never had a problem like this before. In the end, all I can say is, that I am so happy with the pictures and all of these emotions that I could capture. All of these ‘problems’ were worth it. And all of them made this intimate moment just perfect.
