Andy Best

Andy Best is an award-winning filmmaker, cinematographer, and photographer whose work spans wild landscapes and deeply personal narratives. A lifelong artist, he began in his grandmother's studio with pastels and oil paints before studying film in Portland, Oregon in the early 2000s. Over more than 15 years, Andy has built a career creating cinematic work for leading outdoor brands and publications. His travels and projects have taken him from Baja to Alaska and across the world — often alongside his two daughters — capturing the relationship between people and the wild places that shape them. He is a regular contributor to National Geographic Travel and Sony, and continues to produce films and campaigns through his independent production company, Lone Bison Films. His mission remains constant: inspire curiosity, stewardship, and a deeper connection to the natural world.
