Language: English

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.

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.
