  Erbil Balta   advertising photographers

  Erbil Balta started building-up his career as a photographer when he entered Mimar Sinan University Faculty of Fine Arts (Photography Department) in 1996. Erbil says: “If I were not a photographer, I would become a psychotherapist. What I really care about is the expression on people's faces that reveals true emotions. I believe that's what makes me a social animal.”

  Focusing on lifestyle and portrait photography, Erbil has become a leading worldwide commercial photographer. He has worked with many brands and magazines including The Times, Vogue, Elle, Travel&Leisure, Condé Nast, Monocle and Centurion.

  He has also received a number of awards for his commercial photography work, including: 'Gate Tattoo' - NYF AD Awards 2006 (Bronze Medal) and Epica Awards 2006 (Finalist);  TanguoSimo Dance Studio - Kirmizi AD Awards 2007 (First Prize); Hand-an Jewellery Store - Kristal Elma AD Awards 2008 (Certificate of Success) and Kirmizi AD Awards 2008 (Certificate of Success); and The Association of Children of Hope Foundation - Kirmizi AD Awards 2008 (First Prize).

  Erbil has participated in many mixed exhibitions and is currently working on a personal exhibition including portraits.

  He is currently represented by PPR Istanbul.
