Working with Andie:
"As a photographer and visual artist her creativity is bottomless. She has the ability to capture the most beautiful, ugly and complicated guts of human beings in an instant." - Caitlin Hart, Founder and Artist Director for The Vagrancy
"Photographing with Andie is a lot like doing anything with Andie. It is an adventure and an exploration. The two words I think of are targeted, and open. Which seem almost mutually exclusive. What I mean by targeted is that, there is a narrative behind every shot, beyond the choose your own adventure element inherent in the subjectivity of all visual art. Her use of light, and compositional awareness pull the viewer into a crafted tale. I've seen this repeatedly in her work, which so often appear as thousand word essays that communicate in an image a cinematic asthetic that is comfortable and compelling. Working with her, was an excerise in intuitive exploration, and was enjoyable for allowing a surrender to spontenaity that was authentic and unperformed." - Brandon Rowan-Taylor, actor
"Andie approaches photography like every other art form. She creates a story and she gives herself to the work. I have had great feedback about the photos she took of me and I would work with her anytime. She brings a refreshing, creative flair to the experience!" - Veronica Mistry, actress
"I've shot with Andie a number of times and will continue to do so. Each shoot is its own adventure, and each adventure occurs in a collaborative storyland wherin you are an honered character. And when you mix this with Andie's craft and taste for raw locations, you become dynamic and larger than life." - Tony Pauletto, actor/writer/director
"I find it hard sometimes to take pictures but Andie put me at complete ease and gave me the authority to play and have fun during our photoshoot. We got some pretty awesome pictures because of that! She's a great director!" - Jordan Boughrum, actress
