Photographer, Andy Stratmann, is a film school graduate and former Hollywood professional.  His film school teachers strongly urged to get an SLR film camera as it was 'cheap practice' in filmmaking.  Practice turned into passion and Andy would rarely be seen without his camera.  In between film and television gigs in L.A., Andy would also work as a 2nd shooter at weddings.

Years later after a move back to his home town of St. Louis, Andy's wife encouraged him to start a photography business, Stratmann Pictures.  These days they work together to provide clients with enjoyable experiences and exceptional photos.
