Sacid Aker
1956 born photographer studied engineering at the university when his adventure in photography started. He was spending his time admiringly in darkroom. He became a member of AFSAD (Ankara Amateur Union of Photography and Cinema in 1978).
In 1986, he played a major role in establishing MFD (Photography Club of Mersin, formerly IFAD), where he worked many years as a chairman and member of managing committee.
It was not easy for the artist to say farewell to his analogue camera and to give a start to digital photography, but it was inevitable. Portrait photography is his main focus although he has a portfolio in nature photography. Being an engineer makes geometrical figures attractive to him.
The photographer is invited as jury member to the photography competitions.
