Andy Mahr has an extraordinary way of intertwining beauty and grit. He photographs hardworking men and women, the salt of the earth, who become his 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 and he is highly collaborative, always adding conceptual ideas to the project and taking it one step further. Andy is able to speak the language of his clients from their point of view. 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 combat training in the U.S. Marines, Andy flourishes in making each project feel powerful and spectacular.
Andy is based in the Hill Country near San Antonio, Texas.
