Private Photography Lesson with Burak Bulut Yıldırım
In one-on-one lessons tailored to your skill level, equipment, and goals, you’ll focus directly on the topics you need—from basic camera operation to studio lighting, and from product and portrait photography to Photoshop, Lightroom, portfolio building, and professional workflows.
The course is taught by Burak Bulut Yıldırım. During the initial consultation, your skill level, sample photos, and the areas you wish to focus on are assessed; the order of topics and the format of the lessons are determined accordingly. Lessons can be held at the Istanbul studio, in Berlin and throughout Europe, or online, depending on the subject matter and schedule. Instead of regular group courses, only one-on-one private lessons have been offered since 2020.
Current tuition rates: One-on-one private lessons are 3,000 TL per hour; a 6-hour program costs 18,000 TL, and a 15-hour program costs 45,000 TL. Long-term professional mentoring ranges from 60,000 TL to 120,000 TL for 20 to 40 hours.

What is a private photography lesson?
The private photography lessons at the LUX Production Istanbul studio are one-on-one sessions tailored to the individual student’s skill level and goals. During the initial assessment, the student’s equipment, 5 to 10 sample photos, and the topics they wish to learn are reviewed; following this, practical exercises, feedback, and the next steps in the learning process are planned.
Why are one-on-one lessons preferred?
Burak Bulut Yıldırım’s professional experience, which has spanned since 2005, and his teaching experience gained through working with more than 6,000 students ensure that class time is dedicated directly to addressing each student’s specific needs. Instead of a fixed curriculum, students select the topics they need from areas such as camera work, lighting, filming, editing, or professional processes.
The method you have learned is put to the test in a real production environment
The Istanbul studio has the infrastructure to run three parallel sets on the same production day for set-based video, set-based photography, and white-background product shoots. In private lessons, only sets appropriate for the subject matter are used; this setup allows you to see lighting and workflow decisions in the context of real client projects.
Type in the topic you want to learn about
Please provide your skill level, the equipment you use, your goal, and your preferred lesson format. The appropriate sequence of topics, duration, and study method will be clarified during the initial consultation.
