AKPA was initially constituted by veteran photographer Sri. Joseph Cherian, way back in 1984, with a group of photographer friends in Kochi. The primary objective of this initiative was to provide the member professionals with enough stock of photography materials and accessories. Because, it was a time when the market experienced severe scarcity and restricted sales in quality photography materials. A handful of photographers led by Sri. Joseph Cherian moved a representation in 1980 to M/s. Hindustan Photofilms, a Govt. of India enterprise, who were the monopoly suppliers of films and other photography materials, that resulted in a system of controlled supply of materials to the approved studios through an agency in Kerala. Later, this led to a number of anomalies like black-marketing and even the established professionals were not able to procure enough materials. Photographers were on a war path and they moved a mass representation to the Hindustan Photofilms.

This situation turned out to be an impulse to the photography professionals in Kerala to unite and lead a mass movement against the unavailability of materials.
