Testimonials

“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. 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.”

-Maila, Specialist in Communication & Marketing, Finland, Participant of Your Well-Being Photography Project Online Course

“The workshop was a wonderful experience. 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, Romania, Visual Artist, participant of Photography and Emotional Well-Being Workshop

“I believe this online course encompassed everything I personally enjoy. We formed a close-knit group, and attention was harmoniously distributed to each participant. The course incorporated various elements such as games, spontaneity, brief meditation moments, active listening, actionable feedback, creativity stimulation, free expression, open communication, transparency, and supportive collaboration among participants. Luiza’s ability to read our needs and address them with precision showcased her instinct and dedication. The intimate group setting, harmonious attention, and diverse activities cultivated an environment where creativity flourished. Joining was a gift, and Luiza's insightful leadership made it a truly enriching experience. Grateful for the inspiration and growth it brought into my life.”

-Andrada, Professional Photographer, Romania, Participant of Your Well-Being Photography Project Online Course

“Luiza was a very kind and supportive teacher. In the vision board training, she shared how you can use and create one easily. Also avoiding the most common roadblocks that will eventually come up when you do something creative. I enjoyed the training with her very much! ”

-Alessia, Italy, Marketing Specialist, participant of Vision-Board and Photo-Collage Workshop for Entrepreneurial Well-Being

“Luiza explained everything well and gave us excellent reflection questions to really help us clarify our vision! It was fun yet still supportive for self growth!”

-Ana, Philippines, Interior Designer, participant of Vision-Board and Photo-Collage Workshop for Entrepreneurial Well-Being

“Luiza Preda did more than teach us about photography and well-being—she taught us how to truly feel and observe. Her warm and welcoming attitude made her a joy to be around. She left no question unanswered. I can confidently say we left the forest with a renewed sense of excitement for creativity! 📸💖”

-Tara, Philippines, Photographer, participant of Well-Being Photo-Walk

“I had an incredible experience during the photo-walk organised by Luiza. She is such a lovely, understanding, and calm individual.On the day of the event, she came fully prepared with engaging exercises and was wonderfully open about sharing her personal journey. Luiza made everyone feel comfortable, and by the end of the walk, I found myself feeling just as calm as she is. She offered fresh perspectives on mindfulness, how to deal with stress, photography, and nature, encouraging us to step out of our comfort zones and experiment with different camera settings. I truly admire her approach and her kind nature and would absolutely love to attend her events again!‘‘

-Anisha, Web Developer and Photography Enthusiast , India, Participant of Well-Being Photo-Walk

“Luiza made a safe warm space for others that amazed me a lot and helped me to open up more in the workshop. ”

-Nazmee, India, participant of Photography and Emotional Well-Being Workshop

“I've already recommended this 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 on therapeutic art, bringing a new and healthy perspective to photography.”

-Erica, Photojournalist, Brazil, Participant of Your Well-Being Photography Project Online Course

“The whole concept of the workshop was cool - working with emotions and trying to express them with art is something that generally needs more focus in daily life of everyone ”

-Maria, Brazil, Childhood Education Teacher, participant of Photography and Emotional Well-Being Workshop

“Luiza is a calm and pleasant instructor. If you believe in the power of self-discovery and manifestation, I do recommend attending a session with her. She guided us in creating our own vision board, sharing inspiring examples from her own experiences that have been impactful. ”

-Gitika, India, Yoga Teacher, participant of Vision-Board and Photo-Collage Workshop for Entrepreneurial Well-Being

“I learned how to see the act of taking a picture from a whole new perspective. ”

-Yukie, Japan, participant of Photography and Emotional Well-Being Workshop

-Abbie, Technical Marketing Specialist, China, Participant of Your Well-Being Photography Project Online Course

“Luiza creates a safe space for all participants with her interpersonal skills. She is passionate about what she is doing and she shares this passion with people around. I really enjoyed the photo walk and got a chance to practice how to disconnect with my thoughts and connect with nature. The group size was just perfect and everyone was very kind.”

-Judyta, Logistics Coordinator and Photography Enthusiast, Poland, participant of Well-Being Photo-Walk

“Luiza guided me through my personal challenges while navigating the workshop eloquently for the group. As an entrepreneur, I feel like walking alone, thinking alone and doing things alone. Finding a space like this for support, even just for a short of time to discuss things or to share that something is not working currently, is quite liberating. ”

-Monika, Thailand, UX Consultant, participant of Vision-Board and Photo-Collage Workshop for Entrepreneurial Well-Being

“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 can 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, Participant of Your Well-Being Photography Project Online Course

“Everything was very well thought throughout the photo-walk, and Luiza’s wonderful personality and supportive attitude was a really special experience for me.‘‘
