Mustafa Seven
Mustafa Seven used to underestimate taking photos with a camera phone. However, it all changed in 2009 when he got his first iPhone. Born in Sivas, Turkey in 1974, the professional photographer has been living in Istanbul since he was two years old. He manages his own photography studio and previously worked as a photography editor for Turkish newspaper Aksam until 2011. According to Huffington Post, he cites old buildings, cats, dogs and people as inspiration behind his works.
Murad Osmann
One look at Murad Osmann’s Instagram tells us he has led a very exciting life. The 29-year-old always had a passion for arts and described photography as “a way to bring images that I hold in my mind to the surface.” Entitled Follow Me, this personal photography project records Osmann’s travels around the world. What makes it special is that in every photo, it shows his girlfriend leading the way. This highly original idea was a major success and earned him 1 million followers – and counting! Not only that, it also made his girlfriend a star!
Plus, although we mostly only see his girlfriend’s back, you can tell she has a fantastic sense of style.
