Jason Andrew
Jason Andrew is an award winning photographer and, of course, die hard swimmer. Growing up as a surfer, he was always in the open water but when COVID swept the world he really began to venture into open water swimming, completing the Catalina swim by himself. He used open water swimming as a form of therapy after losing his father to COVID.
Through a mixture of personal and assignment work, Jason’s been fortunate to work throughout the world. He explores the repercussions of poverty and political unrest through photography.
Jason was born and raised in Northern California, holds a BA in History from San Diego State University and completed a post-graduate certificate from the International Center of Photography.
