Lived there for 2 years and I still can't get enough of it. Istanbul is a magical, thriving, gorgeously chaotic feast for the senses. Beautiful homage - and an inspiration (if any further were needed) for me to get the entire family back down there, this time with the Sony and Fuji in the bag - thanks!
Good lord the footage you're getting on the A7IV is incredible. Love this style of video as well and can't wait to see more from this trip!
More to come!
Was just wondering what the video portion of this was shot on....nice !!!
But how you graded it too though !!! Has a nice warm and soulful touch to it, good work bro.
Is GoPro still good option for capturing video?
Yeah man agree. Sick.
Istanbul is definitely one of the places I want to travel to the most, the interesting geography, the history and the geopolitical importance are insanely interesting to me so I can’t wait to visit it one day
Absolutely. Instanbul has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world!
The music beginning at 8:52 is a perfect match for that sequence! I love it!
Faizal, i only recently discovered your channel but I really love the way you document your photography journey. You have a very unique way of presenting your photos and your photos themselves all clearly tell a story. I watched a lot of street photographers on youtube who have 500K-over Mil subscribers, and I feel like you’re so underrated in comparison. Every street photography channel starts to feel somewhat generic and everyone’s “story” in their photos is to be as close to the subject and violate their personal space as much as possible. You’ve demonstrated what good street photography is: A mixture of great composition, interesting subject, and emaculate lighting. What makes you unique is you have a good sense of design in your photos. And as a graphic designer, I find your style to be very pleasant. Well done!
I completely agree with this. Its the way he approaches his craft, his presentation and aesthetic. Its really inspiring stuff!
Currently in Istanbul myself, visiting my family in Kadıköy after 2 years of not being able to because of the pandemic. Your shots are incredible and really inspiring for developing my own photography! Hope you have the best time exploring Istanbul; it’s one of my favourite cities in the world ❤️
Yeah! Istanbul is fabulous!
I enjoyed every minute of your video as you and Roman are my favourite photographers that I follow on UA-cam and IG. Istanbul is where I was born and spent the most of my life, so this makes it more special for me.. Keep up the good work Faizal!
Istanbul is such a photogenic city, you could just close your eyes, spin around, stop, and press the shutter and the photo will be brilliant. Thanks for the great video
Great video Faizal! I love the mood, the edit of the video, all the shots of the cats, that one shot with the two shadows on the subway stairs, also the shots on the ferry are amazing.
Yeah those ferry shots were absolute money!
I’ve been living in istanbul since i was born. This city is never enough for me. Love your video, love your photographs and hope to see you here again. The shores of the Bosphorus on the European side towards the Black Sea are worth taking photographs as well. just a recommendation for photographers in Istanbul ☺️
Your B&W shots hit the spot
the best video i’ve watched from you thus far. well done 👏🏼
Wow, thanks!
Who needs a vlog when you can get THIS. Thank you, it’s always inspiring to watch your work
Great atmosphere and shots already. Istanbul is a really beautiful city and perfect for street photography. Can’t wait to see more!
Yes! It really is perfect! So many subjects 😍
dude i have been following your channel for almost 2 years and i can’t believe that you came to my city. If you want to hang out i would love to show you around as a local. enjoy your stay here :))
ahahah ben de aynı şekilde bildirimden görünce çok şaşırıp sevindim
How can't people fall in love with your stunning photos and video clips :) Thank you for sharing your good memories
Sound was great, intro to Istanbul was great...go have fun and keep us up to date on your adventures!
8:18 onwards, the footage is stunning! The boat journey feels so relaxing
Only a minute in and it looks beautiful. So great, as always!
Thanks brother!
Every photo is a gem. Man you're talented!!!
I absolutely find your videos so soothing and I love the music the tone of your voice it’s almost like a meditation photo video! Also your super cute 🥰 thank you for your content!
That pretzel bread thing looked so goooood!
this is such a beautiful video. i can’t wait for more!! thank you faizal, hope you enjoy your trip!
Thank you!!!
This is an aesthetic video like Istanbul itself 🔥
I'm so glad you didn't force yourself to do a classic vlog style content. I keep coming here for your own style.
I think some people are just delighted to share where and what kind of coffee they had this morning. Some are pushing for people to get involved in their story and become influencers. Thank you for creating amazing content your way.
Btw. great photos.
This is very true! I think people just try to be monetizing everything you know? A coffee stops being a just a coffee and starts being a shoutout you can get something out of ahah what times!
Mate this is such a wonderful video + photos to sit down with some coffee and watch. Peaceful
2:13 and 8:47 are my favorites, they're incredible. Instanbul looks amazing in black and white
Can't wait to see more of your adventure in Turkey, Faizal!
Super cool video. Can't wait to see more and hear you talk a bit more about your experience with the GRIIIx !
Awesome vid Faizal.I'm from Istanbul and I'm very exciting this vid.I've been following you for about 1 month.Coming to my city made me emotional
Welcome to Istanbul! I'm so pleased to you are making a street photography video in İstanbul, in my country 😊
Absolutely breathtaking video. Felt like I was watching a movie. It's amazing to see my home country trough your eyes. Can't wait for upcoming video's!
love the way you combined the beauty of the city
Beautifully shot man, enjoyed this a lot 🙏🏻
thanks Ivan !
This was beautiful, great footage and lovely choice of music.
Welcome to Istanbul Faizal! Nice pictures 👏👏👏
Well documented video. Beautiful city. Look forward to see what shots you get
This city is on my list to visti for a long time. Enjoy your trip
Stunning photos Fazial, thanks for sharing your experience
Enjoyed riding along with you. Also enjoyed your quiet clicks which announced which moments you decided to single out. Nice exploration of sun & shadow. Am a cat person,enjoyed seeing all these critters roving about,too...
so good bro, you inspired me to take up photography again!
sweet gear set!! very nice video..
I'm not traveling now but when I start back this is 1 place to explore, you got some slammin images
Oh man, what a pleasure to meet and go out shooting in Istanbul! ☺️ With all the time spent together, I wish you remembered the name of "the other photographer" though, lol 😅
Definitely want to repeat this experience, both go back to Istanbul and meet with you anywhere in the world. And it will happen. Enjoy the rest of your stay mate, see you soon 👋🏻
Haha this why I'm so bad at this vlog thing. sorry mate 🤣 until next time
I really enjoy and appreciate that you do your own style of video rather than attempting to turn it into the vlog style, I think you enjoying where you are and the time you have there really shows in the photos that you get. That is also the beauty of photography...you can capture a great little moment so much better than worrying about recording everything so you dont miss something. Hope you enjoy your time in Turkey Faizal.
Thank you so much!
Man the mood that you set with your content and the music is just amazing I listen to this at work and just from the music I can tell the footage is amazing. Keep it up! Super jealous you get to go out there for so long.
I am a begginer fotographer and I am from İstanbul. I am watching your videos and get inspired from them. When i saw the video title i just scremed!!! Thank you for this lovely video and thank you for showing us this magical, lovely İstanbul.
Yeah! Its awesome to see your city being featured in a cool video like this. I totally get that!
These Shots are crazy, love the filmic look you're getting on the sony too!
Great video, looking forward to the next one !
Can you please do a tutorial on how you color grade your videos? Please. It’s so good.
I have plans to!
Loved the video!
Such great images
Man i always love watching one of your video's the way their made filmed and edited just makes me always wanna keep watching and coming back it's such a joy to watch keep it up!
really stunning work. photos around 9:45 have such nice complexity and simplicity.
Phenomenal vid, currently on crutches after knee surgery earlier this year and dying to get back out but your vids keep me going photography-wise
I love your narration along with short povs which explains just the right amount about your experience ❤️
Yeah! Its a really cool balance i find. Just spot on.
Its amazing to see you in my hometown!
Such great footage from the Sony and as always great photos
Looking foward for more videos of this travel, also really cool images, specially the reflection ones.
Yeah! The reflection ones were nice!
The black & white shots were incredible pictures told so many stories, hopefully I visit Turkey soon.
Thanks man!
First of all welcome to Turkey, its so nice that you dicided to go for a couple days to İstanbul. Your cips are awesome. I love then so much. I hope you enjoy in Istanbul. Maybe you'll also travel other countrys in Turkey. Thank you for this amazing video.
From Tukey 🖐
Really great video Faisal, I love your style. I am also keen on reflections type of pics! Take care.
Incredible colour grading and beautifully put together. Love the a7iv footage. Photos are fire 🔥 too. Keep it up bro. Almost at 100k 💪🏼
Amazing ! You definitely make me want to go there. Hope you enjoy(ed) the fantastic voyage and looking forward to tha next installment. Take care.
You are improving your storytelling, nice video mate!
I enjoyed every second of it, Ive been there few month ago and it was way too crowded to take photos but at the time you’re filming this seems a bit less busier than usual istanbul, thanks for this amazing video, enjoy the rest of your trip.
I imagine it must be super crowded in some places and moments in time, no doubt.
That image at 9:46!!!! Beautiful work!!!
How can I buy a print?
This footage is unreal! Makes me want to start filming when I go out and shoot! Thank you Faizal for being an inspiration for Me and Many others!
The photo with the woman in the red dress by the birds is crazy.
I miss that city so much
Another great video! Loved it
Istanbul is spectacular for street. Still one of my top three places in the world. I'm curious though, was it part of the plan to go during Ramadan or was that by chance?
thank you for your art
Faizal in Instanbul! Such a beautiful video bro x
Cant wait for the rest!!!!
Beautiful work..thank you for sharing!!!
Good work man. Love the shots.
Thanks Alex!
One of your best my man
Great work man!
You are making me fall back in love with the art of photography and it’s so beautiful watching you explain your shots, the way you shoot is so beautiful, thank you for sharing with us. Love everything about this video and your other videos and images.
god damn beautiful shots !!!!
Awesome video! Felt so honoured that an US photographer I love visited my country and photographed it! If you ever decide do stop by Izmir as well, Please! let me know I would love to meet & take a couple shots with you
Love the direction your videos are going Faizal! Just feels way more personal and you're taking some of the best photos of your life fo' sho'.
Awesome video man! I hope you are well! I have the a7iv, such an awesome camera. Im kinda interested in that Ricoh though...
Excellent video!!! We need technician and business-like @Viva La Film and repair technicians like Jessica Ibarra. There are not many analog repair places and is very refreshing to see young people dedicated in keeping alive the Analog cameras.
It's an interesting way of making a video. I don't see myself walking around vlogging all day. This is more realistic. I'll give it a go for my next video.
is the Eye-Autofocus of this X-E4 with the pancake 27mm 2.8 lens better and more accurate than a Ricoh Gr III x with simmilar 40mm ? and will the sharpness of the fuji at the edge be as sharp as for the Ricoh, or even better? I dont find any comparisons between these two. I want to decide between this two cameras. I know that the Ricoh is extremely sharp in the edges even at 2.8, so I only would buy the Fuji if it is as sharp as the Ricoh or even sharper.
Such a beautiful video Faizal! I’ve watched the last portion repeatedly. The song, photographs, and cinematography is just stunning!
Also, any recommendations for a minimal sling for street photography? Carrying an X-E3 w/ 35mm F/2 and 23mm F/2
8:35 is such a beautiful shot
stunning imagery
To be fair, nobody needs to see what you do every minute of everyday. The way you approach your video is absolutely the essence of what you’re seeing and that is the best concentrated way to do it. Wonderful flow and story telling through all mediums dude. Blown away by it.
Very well put! Totally agree with that.
Wow the scenery just looks amazing! I would like to go there one day (:
I love the photo at 6:09
9:20 too!!
we need to link up when you get home, enjoy your time there brother! much love.
amen to that.
Thanks for sharing all your stories with us Faizal - visually, with motion, and just hearing your candid anecdotes of everything along the way. 🤘🏽
Appreciate you Reggie!
Faisal...love that you are taking your street photography game international ! Your videos are definitely super zen...but you left the X100v at home...looking forward to whether you will miss the wider focal length...or if the tight streets are better with the 40-50mm ff equiv.
love it
this was sooooo good
Grandissimo. I have a Fuji 100xv. I am thinking to buy a RICOH GR III, but I am not sure that it makes sense. Maybe one day you will comment it in a video
u got some amazing shots
