Hello Rubén!, I'm a Wikimedian in Residence in Scotland - welcome to the world of GLAM-Wiki, and best of luck for your project. Hope it goes well!
Just to echo what Liam said - if the images aren't in the public domain, do make sure that you have the necessary permissions to release on an open licence. If you do - well done, that's fantastic! If there are any images on Flickr which are marked (or can be marked) with an open license, then you could use Flickr2Commons: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Flickr2commons, which is relatively simple.
