About Ilkin Eskipehlivan

I was born in 1987 in Ankara. I was interested in the theater during my high school years. In 2005, I met with photography after receiving the 35mm camera of my deceased uncle and started taking photos. Turkish photographer İbrahim Demirel, with whom I met during my first years of university, gave me my first digital camera as a gift.

I worked as a photojournalist at Anadolu Agency, where I started to work as an intern. I took numerous photos in many areas from sport to art, social from events to politics. I took part in the media crews of various organizations. My work has been featured in mixed exhibitions on multiple topics.

I won awards in different competitions with his photos. I left Anadolu Agency in 2011. Since 2012, I expanded my expertise area within communication, news photography, and press triangle to other specific areas such as documentary films, cinematography, commercial photography, commercial films, script writing, corporate communication strategies, media planning, digital media strategies, visibility and communication management.

I continue to work with many private and public institutions/organizations and individuals, in Turkey and abroad, as a director, expert, and consultant. I enjoy creating a transdisciplinary working environment in project production and management processes and taking part in creative problem-solving and decision-making processes. In the meanwhile, my passion for photography especially street photography still continues and enriches my portfolio.
