Austin Bradford
Behind the camera

Hey, I’m Austin.

I’m a filmmaker, photographer, podcast producer, and follower of Jesus based in Knoxville, Tennessee.

The camera has taken me from the White House lawn to Iceland’s glaciers to gym floors before sunrise. My favorite moment comes later, when a client watches their story back for the first time and goes quiet. That’s when I know we made something true.

If you’ve got a story you’d like to tell, I’d love to hear it. Usually over coffee.
