Since he has mounted a one-man exhibition at El Centro Del Pueblo featuring his documentary photo project on Echo Park.  His travel photos have received recognition from National Geographic and other photographs have received attention and awards in multiple group exhibitions. Most recently he has discovered bird photography and has been able to combine his love of the outdoors and nature with that of his photography. In 2024 and 2025 Andy visited wildlife reserves in nine countries around the equator where he photographed 145 species of tropical birds.
