Andy Schmid

Country: Switzerland 🇨🇭

Andy Schmid is an underwater and ocean photographer from Switzerland who is aiming at inspiring a positive change by capturing our planet's hidden treasures to create awareness for what's at stake if we keep treating our planet the way we have been for the past decades.
Andy started diving 20-odd years ago and has been in love with everything about it ever since. A little over 10 years ago he picked up his first underwater camera and learned about underwater photography and photography in general step by step, steadily improving his skills and equipment. Andy is a self-taught photographer who is very passionate about the ocean, diving and photography and has been lucky enough to win a number of international photography awards. Being a non-professional photographer Andy manages digital projects for a living, dreaming about turning his passion into his profession one day.
