What was started as a mere hobby has eventually turned into a passion… Hi, this is Erhan Coral, a self-taught street photographer out of Istanbul, who mainly shoots in B&W, loves to be on the streets and loves to catch people in their earnest moments.
Having been born and raised in Istanbul gave me the opportunity to pursue my photography with more fervor, providing a culturally mixed and vibrant environment.
Being an avid traveller gave me the additional chance to be able to shoot different cities, different cultures and different people at the same time.
I was deeply inspired by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Doisneau, Vivian Meier, Josef Koudelka, Martin Munkacsi, Fan Ho, Saul Leiter, Elliott Erwitt, Peter Lindberg, Mary Ellen Mark, Ara Güler, Sebastiao Salgado and on and on and on….
