Beauty & Cosmetics Photographer in Istanbul

Beauty campaigns shot and produced under one roof in Istanbul.

Who shoots beauty and cosmetics campaigns in Istanbul? Sefa Yamak with the PAM Istanbul team. Sefa is both a photographer and a producer, and PAM is a full production house: on some projects Sefa is behind the camera, on others he produces while the crew shoots. Either way, the whole job lives with one team. We work close to the skin. For Bioderma we handled the Polina campaign and the serums range, keeping skin natural and readable rather than retouched into plastic. We cover both product and on-model in the same room, from macro texture to the full look, and we carry that same approach into lifestyle work like realme. With an audience of 821K on Instagram, the images travel the day they go live.

[ Frequently asked ]

Who shoots beauty and cosmetics campaigns in Istanbul?

Sefa Yamak with the PAM Istanbul team. Sefa is a photographer and a producer, and PAM is a full production house, so shooting and production sit with the same team. We have delivered beauty work for brands like Bioderma, including the Polina campaign and the serums range.

How do you keep skin looking natural?

We light and shoot for real skin, not a retouched-to-plastic finish. That means controlling texture on set, working close with the model, and grading so pores, tone and moisture stay readable. The goal is skin that looks like skin, which is exactly what cosmetics like Bioderma need to feel credible.

Can you cover both product and on-model in one session?

Yes. We shoot the product on its own, from macro texture to hero packaging, and the same product on the model, in the same session and the same room. That keeps the look consistent between the pack shot and the campaign image, so both read as one story.

Can you do photo and video in the same shoot?

Yes. PAM Istanbul is one team covering both, and video has its own dedicated crew on set. You get stills and motion from the same day, planned together under one roof, so the beauty campaign carries across photo and video without a second production.
