"Fotografía" (English: "Photograph") is a song recorded by Juanes and Nelly Furtado for Juanes' second studio album, Un Día Normal (2002).
The duet, which was followed by another ("Te Busqué" on Furtado's 2006 studio album, Loose), was extremely commercially successful: it reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot Latin Tracks chart and in Latin American countries such as Argentina, Chile, Mexico and Peru. The song re-introduced Furtado to the Latin American market and paved the way for Furtado's success with Folklore, her second album, in the region.

Her second studio album, Folklore, was released. It was less commercially successful in the US but produced three international singles: "Powerless (Say What You Want)", "Try", and "Força" (the theme of the 2004 European Football Championship). Her third studio album, Loose was her biggest success worldwide. It produced the number-one hits "Promiscuous", "Maneater", "Say It Right" and "All Good Things (Come to an End)". After a three-year break, she released her first full-length Spanish album, Mi Plan. For Mi Plan, Furtado received the Latin Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Album.
