Precision in Every Frame

Andrea was born in Detroit, Michigan, and named after Andrea Mead Lawrence, the first American Alpine skier to win two Olympic gold medals. Not surprisingly, sports have been an integral part of her life, and she was a world-class athlete in two sports. Swimming was the first, and she was a part of many USA teams competing internationally with the best in the world. Throughout her career, she set national records in both individual and relay team events, and in college, she swam at the University of Florida during their reigning NCAA championship years. Then it was triathlons–as a professional triathlete, Andrea again competed on several national teams and, at her best, was ranked top 10 in the world. 

​

After leaving competitive sports, she transitioned into design, starting her own business and working with many national and international clients. When she found time, she taught Visual Communications as an adjunct professor. Photography eventually became her main focus, and working with world-class athletes became her passion. She is now recognized as one of the country's premier sports photographers. Her work has been published in numerous magazines, including

Sports Illustrated, National Geographic, ESPN, NOWVIZ, and Modern Luxury, and has been shown on major networks worldwide. Her photographs also appear in projects by well-known athletes published by Random House, Knopf, and Crown Publishing.

When she’s not on location, she’s most likely at home listening to her mad jazz collection with her three crazy rescued dogs, and  lives in sunny South Florida. She is a devoted animal-rights advocate and supports respect and compassion for all animals.
