Chasing Light The Photography of Andy Katz
“Andy Katz's photographs have an air of quiet contemplation about them. These images are not only often beautiful, they also are full of surprises.
They make you want to be there; to listen, to breathe, to experience. Apart from actually standing there, these photographs are as good as it gets.”
— Sam Neill, Actor
“Andy Katz's photography is simply some of the finest I've seen.”
— Bill Butler, Director Of Photography, "Jaws", "0ne Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest"
“The lively subject matter probed by the sensitive eye of Andy Katz - a photographic souvenir of tradition, ritual and life - each photo a legacy.”
— Marilyn Hall, Film Producer
Announcing “A Walk in the Park”
I am thrilled to announce that my latest book, A Walk In The Park is available now for order.
I am extremely proud of this project and book and think it is the most fulfilling project of my lifetime. In 2020, amidst the chaos of COVID-19, I embarked on a new adventure in photography, capturing the beauty of 63 stunning U.S. National Parks. This project, a labor of love, was born from the desire to slow down and honor nature’s grandeur. Order your copy today and come along with me on this incredible journey.

America The Beautiful: Uniting US IN The Splendor of our Country
Over the past few months, I’ve been deeply inspired by the power of this country’s natural beauty. From the sweeping mountains to the serene coastlines, America’s landscapes are not just breathtaking — they are a reminder of what unites us all
In a time where division feels more present than ever, I believe it’s important for us to step back and recognize the profound beauty that exists across our 50 states. That’s why I’m proud to be in the process of creating my newest and most important project ever, America the Beautiful . I am traveling to every State to capture the soul of this nation, showcasing the rich diversity of our landscapes and reminding us of the common ground we all share.
This project isn’t just about photographs; it’s about bringing people together through the wonder of our natural world. I truly believe that when we see the beauty around us, we can find new ways to come together and appreciate what makes this country so special.
Join me on this journey of rediscovering the splendor of America and help spread the message of unity and hope.
Let’s come together and celebrate what makes this country amazing. Let’s see the beauty, feel the unity, and continue to move forward, together.
Featured Exhibitions
When the Covid-19 pandemic forced many galleries and museums to shutter for most of 2020 and 2021 the interest in my virtual art experiences grew like never before. Because of this increase in activity I decided to dedicate a section of my site to scheduled and rotating Featured Exhibitions.
These Exhibitions will be like those you are used to seeing in galleries and museums in which collections are displayed and narrated in greater detail. Each Exhibit will feature a collection that I have personally created for your viewing pleasure. It is my hope that you will find all Exhibits will create thought-provoking alternatives to your in-person viewing.
Our Featured Exhibition
National Parks
Quarantine has given us all time to think about what truly matters. For Andy Katz, it's our covenant with the land in which we live. Our national parks are owned by us, and every citizen has a vested interest in preserving them. These iconic forests, rivers, deserts, canyons, vistas, and mountains not only define the fabric of our nation, but they’re also our most precious resource.
For Andy, the moment we’re living through represents a virtual reset for all Americans. Now is time to reclaim our national birthright and underscore our moral purpose by drawing our collective attention to the priceless beauty and majesty of our national parks as they have never been photographed before.
Andy has logged over 60,000 miles traveling to all our beautiful National Parks in pursuit of the most iconic images of the pure power and beauty the Parks hold and reveal to us. The results will speak for themselves. We hope you will enjoy your virtual journey and visit to these featured National Parks through the eye and lens of Andy Katz.
Below is a sample of the National Parks Exhibit. To see the entire Exhibit and current collection please click on the button below the images.
UPDATE: The incredible team at Sony and Alpha Universe has just published an article about the project and my upcoming book, "Chasing The Light." It is a great article , and I hope it inspires everyone to get out and experience the beauty that our national parks have to offer. You can find the story and new images here.
