Local Photographer Celebrates Montana’s Hidden Beauty with New Book Release
Billings, MT—Adventure photographer Andy Austin, 34, has captured the essence of Montana’s landscapes in his newly released photo book, “MONTANA: Photographs from the Last Best Place.” Announced on April 6, Montana Day, the 288-page book features stunning imagery highlighting the state’s diverse terrains, from the rugged mountains to lesser-known scenic spots.
Austin’s journey began during childhood, armed with an old Canon camera and a love for documenting his friends’ antics in their small, dirt-surrounded neighborhood. Over ten years of professional experience, including travels across all seven continents, have shaped his lens. Austin aims not just to showcase iconic landmarks but the hidden gems often overlooked by visitors.
The book is divided into six chapters, focusing on Montana’s tourism regions, including underutilized state parks that Austin passionately promotes through his photography and social media. Conservation is central to his mission; he actively supports public lands and educates followers on conservation issues.
Austin’s first foray into photography as a business started during college, and despite initial doubts from his parents, his dedication to the craft has allowed him to thrive. To order the book and learn more about Austin’s work, visit montanaphotographybook.com.
