Every training opportunity promises change. Through the comprehensive approach and the suggested activities paired with a loving and clear process evident in every aspect, I have gained a profound understanding of human behavior. I could break free from old paradigms that had been holding me back. I feel complete. Thank you for transforming my gaze. Until next time!
The experience is beautiful and enriching. In that moment, it’s difficult to fully appreciate the value of everything you’re living, sharing, and feeling. I know it was a starting point, after which I no longer postponed living my life. It’s about listening and getting to know yourself without further delay because before you know it, you don’t even recognize yourself anymore. And this person in constant evolution, myself, continues to surprise me. Currently, I’m exploring self-portraiture, of course, with my inseparable ally, Photography
It’s not just the course. It’s what comes next. Your generosity is great and awakens my desire to keep going and somehow give back what I have learned. To you or somebody else. It’s not a course; it’s a wave that keeps spreading. Letting go is our responsibility. This course offers you an experience. Be open to whatever happens. Before pressing the button, a photograph is created by constructing a gaze. Our best gaze requires our best version. Photography also entails getting ready for our best gaze.
It was an astonishing experience! I vividly recall seeing the advertisement at the year’s end and viewing it as an opportunity to break from my routine. However, I ended up surpassing that expectation: shattering paradigms, reshaping ideas, challenging beliefs, evolving pictures, and adopting novel methods to explore myself. I have always loved photography, but I’ve now come to recognize that there’s a deeper layer beyond just lighting, framing, and composition. It’s about the essence within the photo and the inspiration that drives the artist to craft such meaningful art. I loved it!
I was impressed by the methodology used in the teaching-learning process. Incorporating psychology into the activities added significant value, facilitating my self-reflection, self-knowledge, and decision-making. Thank you very much for such a beautiful and unforgettable experience. I look forward to participating in another one of your courses. Thank you, Amparo and the ANDANA team, for your enthusiasm, dedication, and commitment.
The experience with the Andanafoto workshops brings joy. When you can no longer find answers on the outside, you are “forced” to change your focus, and there it is! Inside, intimately, where you don’t look because you don’t remember to, because you are too busy with other things, because you are terrified to look there, because you are ashamed, you don’t like it, because it hurts, because you don’t even think about looking there. And you realize there is much more than you think in your surroundings, everyday life, body, mind, and spirit. And, by the way, there’s beauty. And, above all, you have fun. I will stay with Andanafoto for a while longer. Thank you.
I loved the workshop. Through this very different experience, I learned about edge photography work, themes, and techniques. It was also very personal, innovative, and creative, as well as very well-planned and directed. The experience helped me a lot in my personal life. The workshop was excellent!! It was also straightforward and practical for those of us who are not photography professionals. Congratulations.
“I am what I don’t imagine” and “I am time” have been revealing to me. I experienced some resistance to doing them. I didn’t really feel like it. I couldn’t find the right image. Confronting the emotions the exercise stirred up helped me become aware of the “dark” parts I didn’t want to see. An adventure into myself through self-portraiture. A space to get to know myself better, express myself, and show myself as I am. A deep journey. The workshop is delightful.
It has been a liberating exploration. While I have worked with the naked body for years, the exercises suggested by Andanafoto have opened up new horizons for me.
Quiet, deep, charming, motivating, seductive. Disconnecting from the external to connect to the internal, the intimate, and what is silent. An opportunity to live and feel through oneself and others, knowing that everything is possible, beautiful, and respected.
