Mykonos: Fashion style Photoshoot and photography lessons

Mykonos: Fashion Style Photoshoot and Photography Lessons offers a unique way to turn your visit into a memorable adventure. This experience pairs a private, professionally guided photoshoot with personalized tips on how to improve your photography skills, whether you’re wielding your mobile phone or a camera. Led by Thomas Chrisohoidis, a top fashion and action photographer, you’ll explore some of the most photogenic, not-so-secret spots around the island.

What I really like about this experience is how it combines a fun photoshoot with genuine learning—perfect for capturing high-quality images for your social media or just creating beautiful memories. Another highlight is the opportunity to visit exclusive locations that aren’t your typical tourist spots, adding a dash of adventure and exclusivity. However, note that the session is quite weather-dependent—wind or cold can make even the most prepared models a bit nervous, but Thomas’s calm guidance helps keep the vibe relaxed.

One potential consideration is that transportation to and from the meeting point (Windmills of Mykonos) is not included, so you’ll need to arrange your own transfer. Despite that, the flexibility to pick your preferred locations and the sharing of professional tips make this experience well worth it, especially if you’re looking to boost your photography skills or add a fabulous set of images to your collection.

Exploring Mykonos Through a Professional Lens

If you’ve ever tried to capture the beauty of Mykonos with your phone, you’ll know it’s easier said than done. That’s why a guided photoshoot with a seasoned fashion and action photographer like Thomas is worth considering. It’s about more than just snapping photos; it’s about learning how to frame, pose, and use the island’s stunning light to your advantage.

The experience lasts approximately 2.5 hours, with the actual photoshoot lasting about an hour for two people, or 1.5 hours for groups of up to four. You’ll meet at the famous Windmills, a classic Mykonos backdrop, but the fun really begins when you visit lesser-known, secret locations — places that add that special, artistic flair to your photos. If you’re lucky, you might explore some of the best sunset spots, making for perfect twilight images.

What makes this stand out is the combination of a professional photoshoot and personalized lessons. During the shoot, Thomas not only captures your images but also shares valuable tips on how to shoot your own photos, whether using a smartphone or a DSLR. From the reviews, I gather that his calm, attentive guidance turns even weather challenges—like wind or cold—into manageable hurdles. Cecilia mentions how Thomas’s “familiarity with good shooting locations and calm, detailed instructions” allowed her and her husband to relax and enjoy the process despite chilly winds.

The photos are delivered swiftly—normally within a day—and include at least 70 high-quality images, making it easy to enhance your Instagram feed or keep as cherished souvenirs. Plus, the experience is entirely private, so you get personalized attention and a flexible schedule.

Pricing and value are quite competitive. For what you get—professional photos, expert tips, exclusive locations, and a memorable experience—it offers good value, especially compared to the cost of a professional photo session elsewhere. Keep in mind, transportation isn’t included, so plan accordingly, but that gives you the chance to customize your day.

How the Experience Unfolds

Meet at the Windmills: This iconic Mykonos landmark is a perfect starting point. It’s a classic shot itself and a convenient meeting spot. From there, Thomas guides you through several locations, each chosen for their photogenic qualities. Some are well-known, others are “secret” spots, offering a mix of tourist favorites and hidden gems.

The Photoshoot: For the first hour (or 1.5 hours for groups), you’ll be actively involved in modeling, posing, and experimenting with different angles. Thomas’s background in fashion and action photography means he knows how to get the best out of you, even if you feel a bit camera-shy. From reviews, I learned he gives detailed instructions on what to do, which helps produce natural yet stylish images.

Learning sessions: Alongside the shoot, Thomas shares tips on how to shoot with your mobile or camera, focusing on portraits, landscapes, selfies, or videos. Cecilia notes that Thomas’s “good advice” helped her and her husband get natural-looking photos despite challenging weather conditions.

Secret locations and sunset: The highlight for many is visiting less crowded, artistically inspiring spots—perfect for memorable portraits. If timing allows, you might enjoy a sunset shoot, which adds magic to your photos.

Photo delivery: Expect around 70 images sent online the next day, giving you quick access to your images to share or print.

This experience is perfect for Instagram influencers, honeymooners, or anyone wanting to elevate their photo game on vacation. It also works well if you enjoy trying new activities during your trip or want to have a fun, personalized activity that results in tangible, shareable memories. However, if weather looks particularly windy or cold, be prepared for a quick, possibly chilly session, but rest assured, the photographer’s experience makes the best of it.
