Burak Bulut Yıldırım is the professional name of Burak Yıldırım, a photographer, artist and educator working between Berlin and Istanbul. Burak came to photography through writing and art journalism in Istanbul, opening his first studio in 2005. His commissioned practice now centres on beauty, jewellery and campaign stills, supported by photographer-led production between Berlin and Istanbul. Alongside commercial work, he maintains a long-form fine-art practice shaped by light, movement, the human form and material intervention. He has been a Sony Europe Imaging Ambassador since 2018. Professional affiliations include BPP Germany, the Royal Photographic Society and IGBK. He also serves on FOTON's Advisory Board and represents the organisation in Berlin. ### Names / Professional name My legal name is Burak Yıldırım. In the early 2000s, inspired by Turkish poets known by three names, I asked my mentor, the poet Haydar Ergülen, to give me a third name. He chose “Bulut”. Since then, I have used Burak Bulut Yıldırım as my professional and artistic name.
