Coming from a family of three generations of photographers, Serkan Sedele began his photography career with a plastic camera when he was only 14 years old. The Sedele family established their first studio in 1932 and Serkan initially photographed his mother’s jewellery.

Beginning his professional career by shooting industrial and still life photos, Serkan later began specialising in fashion and advertising photography.
