Photography to Get to Know Yourself. Origin
An interactive eBook to help you train your visual culture and photographic expression to use as tools for self-knowledge.
Photography has the power to transform and reveal who you are. This interactive book invites you to delve into nine artistic projects, where images and human concerns engage in profound dialogue, and each project becomes a mirror of emotions, aspirations, and experiences.
Explore essential themes like the body, inner strength, dreams, and everyday surroundings. Each project encourages you to “Experiment” through exercises that invite you to enjoy photography as a tool for transformation and healing. These activities are designed to inspire you and help you discover new ways of looking at things and feeling. From self-portraits that reflect personal resilience to connecting with nature as a reminder of our connection with the world, each experience offers a journey of its own.
You will explore stories that awaken your connection with your body, inner strength, and surroundings. Discover new ways of thinking, feeling, and expressing who you are. Learn more by scanning the QR code inside. After all, you are what you look at, and every image is an opportunity to rediscover yourself and connect with the world in a more conscious and authentic way.
You will learn about visual culture and study artists who have dedicated their lives to crafting compelling and transformative works. You will acquire the skills to express yourself through images and create photographs that hold significance in a personal and intimate process.
I invite you to explore this book with an open and curious mind—a playful approach, a way of observing without preconceptions, judgment, or accepting or rejecting anything immediately. Simply embrace each experience and enjoy the journey of getting to know yourself as if meeting someone for the first time.

Photography and personal development
ANDANA
Photography as an educational and personal and social development tool.
Today, more than ever in history, we can take photographs at any time. We create images quickly and easily. We create images because we can. Any activity in our daily lives can trigger us to take a photograph, which is why we live in an era of unprecedented massification of images.
Photography is today the new universal language. Photos are memories but also messages to send and exchange. Photographs engage us optically, neurologically, intellectually, emotionally, viscerally, psychically… Photography moves us forward and changes everything.
In this context, ANDANAfoto was born—an initiative driven by the genuine need for a vision that combines art, social change, and personal development through the use of photography and still images as resources.

Are they the same contents as the course "Photography to Get to Know Yourself"?
No, all the contents are different.
How do you get to know yourself?
The content of this educational experience has been created using theoretical concepts and practical exercises that you will engage with <strong>individually. However, you may choose to share your progress on Instagram.</strong> You will receive training, inspiration, insights on artists, recommended music, and exercises. The results of your work will be revealing.
Will my exercises be supervised?
The process of getting to know yourself is an intimate and individual journey. The exercises will accompany you and make it easier to temporarily focus on what you will explore. Getting to know yourself through photography is a deeply personal journey that requires autobiographical exploration and a sacred space that belongs solely to you. In this space, you will interpret, project, and gain insights essential to your journey. If someone else did the interpretation for you, the process would no longer be yours and would not mean what it should mean to you.
Remember that the more explanations you receive, the smaller the space you will hold for your creativity and expressing your emotions. You should feel free and hold no judgment toward the images you create. Everything and absolutely everything you create will be perfect because it is yours and is born from your own unique gaze.
This is a fun, educational experience designed to help you get to know yourself better and deepen your personal development. Please note that ANDANAfoto does not offer therapeutic services.
Can I share my experience?
You can find other participants on Instagram who are also enjoying this experience by using a <strong>hashtag that will be provided in the content</strong>. Check out the images others have chosen to share on the <strong>@andanafoto</strong> account, showcasing their journey through the same experience. If you wish to share any or all of your work, feel free to post it and mention us.
I don't have a reflex camera
No special photographic gear is required. Your cell phone will suffice. It is a valid tool for the work we are about to do. Nowadays, we all create, share, and communicate with our cell phones.
