Andy Mahr has an extraordinary way of intertwining beauty and grit. He photographs hardworking men and women, the salt of the earth, who become everyday heroes. No matter what project he shoots, Andy highlights these unsung heroes with an approach that makes the images feel timeless and nostalgic.
Andy cut his teeth in the industry as an art director and worked his way up the ranks to creative director. In 2008, he made the full transition to photographer and never looked back. His invaluable experience has been a great resource. Andy speaks the language of his clients and is highly collaborative, always adding conceptual ideas to the project and taking it one step further. It is very natural for him to work on integrated campaigns that involve still and motion. As a certified drone operator, he knows how to glorify dramatic landscapes. Whether it’s a farmer in the field, a fisherman at sea or a soldier in combat training, he thrives on making each project feel powerful and spectacular. Andy is based in the Hill Country near Austin, Texas.
