I'm re-surfacing from my longest blog hiatus since 2006. Pretty fair
run I had there for a while... Anyway, since releasing the film Rocky Mountain Highball
last month, I've been traveling a good bit, climbing, and shooting
lots of photos. I've spent most of the summer developing boulders and
shooting at Mount Evan's Lincoln Lake, sport climbing in Ten Sleep, WY,
and I just returned from a two week t ...

Rocky Mountain Highball is officially out! Three years in the delicate
making. This film is stacked! We are very proud parents. Please order

Well, I'm not serving as many unpublished images here as I used to, but
I get a lot of emails from people who say they enjoy the servings. So, I
promise I'll post more. Recently, I have been spending a lot of time
shooting up at Mt. Evans. The scenery there is beautiful and I've been
getting my alpine fix in before heading elsewhere for most of the
summer. I'm interested in documenting some of the more obscure zones
there and shooting problems ...
Darrell Scott's new album "A Crooked Road"
Andy Mann Photography 2010-06-07 | Reads 7 (cached version)
In my opinion, Darrell Scott
is the most important American singer/songwriter out there today. If
you follow this blog, you may remember a post (here)
about having the outstanding opportunity to shoot some portraits of
him in March (on a whim). Since that afternoon, I've been pleased to
see Darrell using the images to pr ...
Enter - The world's biggest action and adventure sports photography
contest. 4,337 Photographers from 112 countries. Whoa! Imagine
judging this thing? Crazy. I've submitted 25 images in 5 different
categories to the contest and months later many of my climbing
photography is being briefly flashed on the contest home page. (See a
few screen shots below) I hope this is a good sign as the judging
continues months after the submission deadline. ...
An image I shot this winter in Hueco Tanks, TX was chosen for the cover
of the 2010 UC Photo Annual! I am super amped as this is issue is all
about the photos, featuring climbing photography around all over the
world. I also contributed a feature-length photo essay of my beloved
Flatirons, as well as 2 "Leading off" spreads in the front.
This is by far my favorite cover to date. I remember thinking that this image had a shot ...

After completing "The Battle in the Bubble", I made a quick
exit, stage left, to Oregon's Smith Rock State Park to meet up with
Jonathan Siegrist, Paige Claassen, and others to shoot some photos. We
are staying at Steve House's (Alpine legend) farm a couple miles outside
the park and life is good! Slow livin' out here - keeping the cows fed,
slow zen mornings, hard afternoon sessions, and early evenings. I'm
diggin' it! It feels good ...
Last Saturday I put to rest a special nine month project. I was hired
as the Director of Audio/Visual/Live Streaming for a huge bouldering
competition held out at the Boulder Reservoir last Saturday.
Coordinating an outdoor production of this size was no easy task! The
AV team I assembled for the event was the best I could possibly imagine.
We were consistently faced with logistical road blocks and problem
solving along the way, but always seem ...
The new issue of Urban Climber Magazine is out and I am pleased to have
landed the cover. This is my 6th cover with UC and I gotta say, I'm
reeeeeally stoked on the image and layout. (Yeah Paige Claassen!)
Within this issue you'll find Paige and I's article about a recent New
Mexico sport climbing road trip, as well as nice five page Hueco Tanks
photo gallery from this winter. (2 images running as spreads.) Below are
a couple of images I was re ...

a blast and I c ...
