Photography for Well-Being

Photography for Well-Being

What if photography is more than a creative practice?

In the recent years, researchers have proved that photography has many therapeutic benefits and can profoundly improve the overall well-being of the individuals. Photography for Well-Being is a non-clinical therapeutic art practice that involves using photography as a creative tool for practicing self-care, self-reflection and self-growth.

  • The way Luiza made a safe and warm space for the others - that amazed me a lot and it helped me open up more in the workshop.

  • If you feel stuck in your own head and do not know with which of 2847 tasks or ideas to start your day with, this course might help. With as simple as going outside (or even not going) and taking one photograph a day, it could have an impact on how you're feeling. Also, the course feels a bit like a therapy and you could get some valuable thoughts out of it. Recommend :-)

    -Lote, Cinematographer, Latvia

  • Luiza’s guidance is very careful, attentive and complete, making us get in touch with our emotions and connect to photography in a new way.

    -Daria, Fine Artist, Romania

  • I've always loved photography but never thought of connecting it to improve my well-being until I met Luiza Preda and started watching her videos on Instagram talking about it. Seeing her relationship with the art of photography and her motivation to help people find a purpose and a tool for well-being through photography inspired me. Made me want it. This is why I joined her photography for well-being course. I must say that I loved the course, the methodology, the sense of community, and the inspiration the course brought me. Also, having Luiza as my mentor to create my photography for well-being project was very inspiring. I finished the course with that "I want more" feeling and I am super excited to start my journey into the path of well-being photography. I recommend this course!

    -Maila, Specialist in Communication & Marketing, Finland

  • Luiza is a beautiful soul emanating a good energy that she wants to share with other people. That was very easy to feel throughout the whole workshop.

  • Luiza is a lovely soul, who has plenty of curiosity and empathy for her clients. By using simple genuity and friendliness, in the course Luiza created a safe and creative space for everyone to explore their own feelings and well-being needs.

    -Daniel, Poland

  • I truly felt that Luiza was able to form a safe space for all the participants. It was a beautiful experience where we all had the opportunity to reflect on our emotions and talk about the relationship with photography in order to understand ourselves better.

  • I've already recommended this servivce to other photographers! As an experienced professional photographer, I've been very interested in learning new ways to befriend with this skill, as working life feels many times heavy and undervalued. Luiza’s approach is very positive, and I admire her vision and studies, bringing a new and healthy perspective to photography.

    -Erica, Photojournalist from Brazil

  • A fun and interactive online course guided by Luiza! I felt safe to talk about my well-being issues and also received valuable advices on how to use photography to improve them. A journey of self-discovery.
