“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.
Once again, it has been a pleasure to share another experience with ANDANA. Your approach is consistently infused with joy, and the resulting enjoyment becomes a powerful surge of energy and motivation. There is always an opportunity to reflect and take action. And, of course, I love how the experience involves all senses. No detail goes overlooked, and the passion and love for what you do is evident. I am so grateful to have coincided with you on my journey!
This course unveiled to me the process of accepting myself and rediscovering freedom. It amplifies the way you look at things without adhering to stereotypes. Objects transform into subjects. It has enabled me to express my sensual side without society’s imposed sexual connotations. I now live and appreciate my body, thoughts, and how I perceive life’s internal and external elements. This opportunity serves as a reminder of the numerous people we love and who love us. Just like a cherished keepsake, it reminds us of our unique journeys. My days have become filled with vivid colors, images, and beauty. Thank you.
Thank you.
It’s been a long time since I took a workshop that was agile, dynamic, interesting, profound, and creative at the same time! The prompts sparked a lot of interest and inspiration, motivating me to keep contemplating new photographic projects. I was also very interested in the path of self-exploration we were taking… Again, congratulations and thanks!
It was an intense yet profoundly beautiful experience. I felt very special. It has stirred a lot within me and altered my self-perception. I surprised myself in certain situations I didn’t expect to experience. I laughed, cried, and felt excited… I never felt alone, which was very nice. You’re great!!! The authors you always use as inspiration are very interesting and appropriate for the exercise. This project has just begun for me. I want to say thank you to Amparo and Javier because you are great and very professional. I would do it all over again tomorrow!!!
The experience was wonderful; I never want it to end. It helped me listen to myself and have moments exclusively for myself throughout the day. It’s like a form of meditation or a parallel universe of continuous and special learning. It has stirred me up in places within me I didn’t know I had, and it has been a source of motivation for me during the pandemic. It’s also amazing to see the work of different people on Instagram. Congratulations on your work. You are great.
I am super happy to have found this course. I thought it was by chance, but now I realize I was meant to find it. I’m looking forward to more! It went by quickly, and now I even think it was short. Thank you very much for everything!
This is an excellent course, extremely thorough. It introduces you to a world of thinking and thinking about yourself, both as an individual and as a photographer, through your unique and distinct gaze.

The workshops are beautiful, and I will never tire of thanking you for everything you give us. They guide you with kindness and respect on the wonderful path of recognizing yourself and the astonishment of discovering yourself. Learning is invaluable. I am happy to have found you.
I recommend applying any technique of self-knowledge because I believe it is absolutely necessary. As for Getting to Know Yourself Through Photography, it has been like entering a world of very revealing images, which, when done seriously, can involve finding many surprises and reliving emotions and feelings. For example, in your family album. It has also been very enriching for my friends to send me the photos they took of me back in the day that I had not seen and others I did not remember. Seeing the passage of time and the transformation of my face and gaze. A job well done. In my opinion, the course is very, very thorough. I will repeat some exercises later on to compare with this moment in my life. Thank you.
