Meet The Team
What’s up friends!! My name is Austin Angel, Owner + Creator of Austin Angel Photos + Films. Since I was 14 years old I had the dream of being a landscape photographer & go to all kinds of places & take landscape pictures. As you can see, my plan changed quickly! When I got a camera for Christmas my best friend asked me to take some fun pictures of her, so I did. The pictures got many likes & comments so I decided to create AAA Photography back in 2015. A lot has changed since then! It is now 2023. Austin Angel Photography & Films now has over 4,000 likes on all social media platforms. In 2019 we received the Knoxville 20 under 20 award sponsored by LMU. This award recognizes 20 entrepreneurs all over Knoxville under the age of 20. We have been so blessed to be able to capture so many beautiful memories over the last 6 years! We cannot wait for 6 more!

In 2023 we recently brought on 2 amazing additions to the team! Kelsey on the left, is our second shooter and Kimber on the right, is our videographer! Adding these 2 very gifted and out going members to the team has changed the game. We know the struggle of trying to find a photo team and video team to work with you on your big day can be super hard…that’s why we do both! We cannot wait to serve you on your big day!

A little more about me personally and my life - I am blessed to be apart of a family of 4. My amazing mom, Cynthia and my awesome dad, Ronnie. I also have a twin sister named Abby. I have always had a passion for creativeness and art. I started painting and taking art classes that soon turned into photography. In 2019 I began an intern position at Fairview Knox Church in Corryton, TN as the social media director. As the year went by, I moved out of the intern seat and was offered a spot on staff as the lead communications and social media director! I have attended Fairview Knox Church for almost 15 years. I am a strong believer in Jesus and my prayer is that everyone will have a relationship with him just like I do. As you can tell, I am super busy but super blessed. If you would like to know more about my life, I would love to chat with you! Fill out the small form on my contact page and I will get back to you as soon as I can!
