I'm Andrew Weitzel, more commonly, I'm known as my brand name, "AW Photos." I am a digital media creator with a focus on sports based in the metro DC area and am here to fill any of your media needs.
Starting in late 2019, and early 2020, my newfound hobby of photography began. As a kid, I was always into sports, whether that be watching or playing. This led to the beginning of me photographing sports. I started off doing lots of work for my school but soon branched into video. Since then, I have built my brand as a self-taught filmmaker to become a known name in the sports scene of the DMV as I strive to continue to grow my craft and image.
I graduated from Broad Run High School located in Loudoun County, VA in Spring 2024, and am currently attending the University of Missouri - Columbia.
I am excited to be at Mizzou and continue to work with various teams creating sports-focused content. I am studying in hopes of receiving a B.S. in Parks, Recreation, Sport, and Tourism, along with a minor in Journalism. Currently, I work as a student manager for the baseball team, in addition to being a photographer for the student newspaper The Maneater.
Through photos and video, I work to highlight the action and exhilaration of sports and show off the various games, the athletes, and their stories. I work to excite the viewers and the athletes with my work and to form pieces of media that will be forever marked that they can come back to for years to come.
