Some of us stumble into our careers. But Andrew from 2085 Productions didn’t just randomly find this path…he was shaped into it from the start.
His dad was a freelance photographer for National Geographic, and Andrew grew up traveling and going on assignments with him, watching the research, the planning, the patience it took to capture the right moment…and this was all before the internet! He was already immersed before he even knew where it would take him!
As a kid, he’d sit with stacks of slides and sort through hundreds of photos, marking the best ones that his dad would then submit to Nat Geo. That’s where he developed his eye…learning early on how to be selective in what actually tells a story.
At first, he thought he’d go a completely different route and he was on track to be a teacher. But a video editing opportunity in college changed everything. He found himself spending hours in the lab, completely locked in, losing track of time…and that’s when it clicked.
This was it. This was what he was made to do.
Like a lot of things, the journey wasn’t linear. He graduated into a tough economy, spent years working in restaurants, even stepped away from all video for a while which in turn created moments where he thought he’d missed his shot.
But when something’s in you…it never leaves.
Andrew found his way back, this time leaning into storytelling in a different way…real people, real moments, and work that actually connects.
And you can feel that in everything he creates. If you’re interested in letting him tell your story, reach out! 🎥
