Okay, is your wife a Turkish citizen, or resident? Meaning, does she have a Turkish passport or a residence permit?

Also, is your marriage registered in your country, Philippine?

You'll need to contact your closest Evlendirme Dairesi with your passports, marriage documents and photographs. 

I cannot give precise details of documents since theu often vary according to the country.  It would be best to call Evlendirme Dairesi or visit it once to get complete info on what documents are required for your respective country.

Good luck.

Thanks bro
