25th edition.
A revised and enriched new version designed to offer a deeper, more current, and transformative experience.
Photography doesn’t just transform the way we look at the world. It also transforms the way we look at ourselves.
Every photo we take says something about what catches our attention, what we value, and our memories, emotions, desires, and concerns. Learning to observe our photographs can become a powerful tool for self-knowledge.
Photography to Get to Know Yourself is a pioneering program that uses photography as a tool for personal reflection, creativity, and human development. It has been developed over more than ten years and enriched by the experience of thousands of participants from different countries.
Its scientifically validated methodology integrates photography, psychology, contemporary art, and the latest research findings on well-being, mindfulness, identity, and meaning-making. This program is not about learning photographic technique, but about using images to better understand who you are, how you interpret reality, and which aspects of your life deserve to be heard.
Across 24 sessions, you’ll discover inspiring artists, photography prompts, guided reflections, audio lessons, and exercises designed to help you explore your emotions, strengths, values, memories, relationships, and life plans. Each experience has been carefully designed to foster a more conscious, authentic, and profound outlook.
This new edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded, incorporating new cultural references, exercises with a more structured format, and a stronger grounding in contemporary psychology, philosophy, and the available scientific evidence on the transformative potential of images.
You will receive the course content on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, from August 19 to September 28, 2026. Each session takes between 10 and 15 minutes to listen, observe, and reflect. You can complete the prompts and exercises at your own pace, with no fixed schedule.
We invite you to begin this journey with curiosity and without expectations, as if you were meeting someone for the first time. Because sometimes the most important photograph is not the one we take of the world, but the one that helps us discover who we are.

A learning experience backed by scientific research
Recently, a dedicated study assessed this program’s impact on psychological well-being.
The results showed significant improvements in self-esteem, mindfulness, the ability to observe consciously, and psychological flexibility, as well as a reduction in emotional avoidance.
In addition, many participants described a greater understanding of themselves, a kinder relationship with their own image, and greater emotional awareness. These results provide evidence of the potential of Photography to Get to Know Yourself as a tool for self-knowledge, personal development, and psychological well-being.
As part of the program, you’ll have access to a personal assessment tool that will help you reflect on your starting point and assess your progress throughout the experience.

What People Have to Say About this Workshop
I recently completed Photography to Get to Know Yourself and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The content is thoughtfully curated, rich and engaging without feeling overwhelming. I particularly appreciated discovering new photographic works, which broadened my perspective, and the addition of music, which added an emotive and immersive dimension. The structured release of lessons is a fantastic idea, creating a sense of rhythm and anticipation that kept me eager for each new session. Overall, it’s a beautifully designed and well-executed course. Congratulations, and thank you!
I’ve just finished this course and I’ve got to say I loved it so much!I’ve been photographer for over 30 years now and I saw this on Instagram and thought this is what I need to challenge me creatively and make me think a different way about what I take and how I take it …and about myself to👍📷🥰 Highly recommended… I took this and would have never of thought of it before the course🙌
This workshop has been one of my most enriching experiences, as it gave me an opportunity to explore my senses and capture the verbs related to the art of Loving. Also, with this workshop’s help, I could identify the love others express to me, accept it with gratitude and admiration, and reject what might seem like love but fails to hold its essence. In the course of this workshop, I could discover how I love and how I want to be loved. I loved it.
I thought I would find this workshop more difficult, but I didn’t… I flowed through it most easily. I didn’t focus on a romantic partner but on my family. And the experience has been very positive and enriching. For Action 15, Give time, I made a video of all my photos because I couldn’t even find the words. ANDANAFOTO… Thank you very much for everything. I found you at a challenging time in my life. And I think I’ve learned to recognize, accept, and channel my fears and feelings. I feel stronger and more capable and have developed the creativity I had kept hidden. I FEEL GREAT.
I thoroughly enjoyed doing this project. Some assignments took longer to process than others, so it was a great thing that I could do it at my own pace. It took me 3 months to complete! Looking back at some of the photos I am inspired to do them differently so maybe I can take the course again in the future.
Great experience. never have I had a “class” journey like this one….thank you!
The subjects I worked on and the entire concept helped me believe in myself more and trust my instincts, especially as a photographer. It rekindled my connection with photography and guided me to discover my own style. While I haven’t completed all the subjects yet, I intend to work through them at my own pace.
I have loved this course. While I’ve been a bit shy about tagging as much of my work as I had hoped (so others could see it), I want to express my gratitude. I’ve really enjoyed this experience.
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!
Starting from 11 o’clock, I eagerly awaited my message, knowing it was coming. The instructions consistently brought me happiness and a sense of surprise. These messages became my main motivation throughout the pandemic, especially during the challenging month of January, which felt like the end of the world and when regular gatherings and holidays were barely recognizable. Encouraging our imagination has been the most significant gift you’ve given us. Thank you so much, and I already find myself longing for more. Thank you.
Thank you.
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.
I am so grateful for this experience. I value genuine dedication and support in guiding individuals, whether embarking on their initial photographic journey or already acquainted with lighting and composition. I extend my gratitude for offering a fresh perspective on photography – an approach that’s both accessible and yet presents its own set of challenges. I wait anxiously for the new courses to get to know myself better and enjoy other people’s photography around the world like me.
It is so lovely when someone helps you collect everything inside you. For me, this experience felt like a rediscovery. Thank you so much!
The experience came to me at the right time and was a good companion in another process of personal reconnection. It was a perfect tandem because it allowed me to capture many self-knowledge realizations and reflections in images. And I rediscovered tastes I had somewhat stored away: my dream of theater or my interest in photography and the visual. Each audio was a revealing opportunity to play and create. Thank you very much. And I hope to join another workshop soon. A huge hug from Chile 🙂
I found it extremely profound and wonderful because it is a fusion of photography, which is my passion, with getting to know myself and being able to express myself openly. Now, I know I can do it without limiting myself further. The paths are infinite. I have fallen more in love with photography; it means expression and creativity.
ANDANAfoto helped me discover more things about my personality that I didn’t know, such as that I have much more creativity than I thought and much more imagination than I believed. I enjoyed it a lot, so much that I easily found the time to do it, and I could let go. My shyness seems to be diminishing, or so I think. I had a very good experience and plan to repeat it now. Thanks for everything. And thank you very much for this beautiful and precious project. I highly recommend it to everyone. It’s the best photography course I’ve ever taken. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
A marvelous experience! It has allowed me to contemplate matters and dismantle any fears or barriers. I’ve gained insights into myself and the world around me. This experience has been entirely novel and fulfilling. It is great knowing I’m not the only crazy one, hahaha. Thank you so much, ANDANAfoto.
It was a great experience; it informed my practice and helped me open up to new ideas while revisiting old ones from new angles. And I loved the artist’s inspirations; education on other artists’ works is very important! The songs were a fun addition as well.
Hello! I found this journey to be amazing. This year, I chose to spend December 31st alone, away from family and friends. This course helped me better understand myself and recognize how I used activities to mask certain aspects. I learned to acknowledge my viewpoints and thoughts. While I couldn’t complete all the exercises, I intend to take my time over the upcoming days to work through them. Thank you so much! This experience has been beautiful.

FAQs
Where can I find information about the scientific validation of this program?
Photography to Get to Know Yourself has been the focus of a dedicated study assessing its impact on psychological well-being and personal development. The study used scientifically validated psychological assessment instruments and analyzed both quantitative results and the participants’ subjective experiences.
The results showed significant improvements in areas such as self-esteem, mindfulness, the ability to observe consciously, and psychological flexibility, as well as a reduction in emotional avoidance. Many participants also described a greater understanding of themselves, a kinder relationship with their own image, and greater emotional awareness.
You can learn more about the research and scientific evidence on photography as a tool for personal development in the following articles:
- Scientific Evidence: Photography as a Tool for Personal Development
- Photography as a Psychological Tool Based on Scientific Evidence
We continue to develop and share new research that contributes to a better understanding of the potential of photography as a tool for self-knowledge, well-being, and personal transformation.
I took a previous edition of the workshop. Do I get access to this new version?
Yes, the workshop on the training platform has been updated. You now automatically have access to the new content.
I’ve already completed the workshop. Is it worth repeating? What has changed?
Yes, it’s absolutely worth doing again.
This new version of Photography to Get to Know Yourself has been completely revised and enriched, going deeper to offer a richer, more current, and more transformative experience. Here’s why:
More philosophical and psychological depth. We’ve incorporated reflections from contemporary psychology and philosophy so that you not only explore your images, but also the “why” behind your experience with them.
Backed by neuroscience and other scientific fields. This new edition delves into the role of the body and brain in the process of creating and perceiving images. We’ve included explanations of how photography activates neural circuits involved in memory, attention, emotion, and decision-making. It’s more than just an experience to be lived—it’s an evidence-based experience that connects artistic practice with research on mental health and creativity.
The exercises are now more clearly structured, with guided steps, key questions, and concrete examples to help you explore your story more deeply.
More artistic and cultural references. We’ve added works by artists that both inspire you and place you within a broader creative and cultural context.
Deep reflections. Each module now includes a more in-depth analysis and ends with quotes and reflections that invite you to continue your journey of self-knowledge beyond the workshop.
Focus on personal narrative. Editing images, giving them a title, and shaping a personal narrative now play a much bigger role. We encourage you to create from what truly matters!
Is access to the course permanent?
Yes, the content is permanently available on the training platform. You can review it anytime, as many times as you like. Everyone learns at their own pace.
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. This space belongs exclusively to you; you will conduct the interpretations, embark on projects, and gain the insights essential to your journey.
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.
