Fashion Photography Workshop at Goa Beaches – A Perfect Blend of Learning, Beauty, and Creativity
The sun-soaked beaches of Goa have always been a source of inspiration for artists, and this time, they served as the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable fashion photography workshop. Organized by Rakesh Kurra Modelling Agency and Photography, the workshop was held in the serene and picturesque setting of Agonda Village, known for its pristine shoreline and peaceful ambiance. What made this workshop extra special was the presence of international models, professional stylists, and aspiring photographers from across the country.
The day began at 9 AM at the scenic Orrange Sky Beach Resort, a location that offered a stunning blend of natural beauty and vibrant resort aesthetics—perfect for fashion-themed photo sessions. The energy was electric from the very beginning as photographers set up their gear, excited to begin a day of creativity, learning, and hands-on practice.
Two foreign professional models, Mariia and Dina from Russia, were the highlight of the event. Their dynamic posing skills and professionalism brought a high-fashion edge to every photograph taken during the day. Their look was further enhanced by celebrity makeup artist Mask Raju, who gave both models a distinct beach glam makeover. The combination of flawless makeup, professional lighting, natural sunlight, and the captivating Goan coastline created a dream-like setting for the shoot.
This workshop was not just about clicking beautiful pictures—it was a learning experience designed for photographers who wanted to sharpen their skills in real-world fashion photography scenarios. From understanding the nuances of shooting in natural light to directing professional models and working with stylists and makeup artists, the participants got a comprehensive, hands-on experience that is rarely available in traditional photography classes.
Photographers from different cities—Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, and beyond—came together to be part of this one-of-a-kind event. Many were passionate hobbyists, while others were budding professionals eager to expand their portfolios. Regardless of their experience levels, everyone walked away with high-quality images and fresh creative insights. Participants had the rare opportunity to experiment with framing, angles, and storytelling in a live setting while receiving direct feedback from renowned fashion photographer Rakesh Kurra, who personally guided and mentored the group.
Throughout the day, the group explored multiple shoot locations around the resort and the beach—from wooden decks to palm tree clusters, from sunlit sand stretches to shaded tropical corners—each spot offering something unique for the lens to capture. The friendly and collaborative environment encouraged everyone to try new ideas, push creative boundaries, and grow their confidence as photographers.
Both Mariia and Dina expressed their happiness and appreciation for being part of the workshop. They not only enjoyed working with the photographers but also received several professionally captured images for their personal modelling portfolios, adding value to their international careers. Their presence elevated the quality and authenticity of the entire shoot, giving participants a true-to-industry experience.
By the end of the workshop, every participant had a collection of stunning fashion photographs and memories to last a lifetime. Many of the attendees expressed their gratitude for such a well-organized and enriching event. For those who dream of stepping into the world of fashion photography, events like this are a golden opportunity to learn, practice, and connect with industry professionals.
