Check what the last group thought about the Well Lens course:
“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
“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
“I've already recommended this course 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.”

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.
