About
My name is Aaron Feldman and I am the Chief Visionary Officer of True PHotography. I originally founded True Photography in 2000, after graduating from Brooks Institute of Photography. At first, I began photographing alone. I would shoot weddings, do the marketing to bring in more business, retouch the images, process the accounting, and build albums. Although my clients were happy, I found that I was spread too thin to accomplish everything effectively. I would start a retouch project and then leave immediately to photograph a wedding... Then I would come home and have an album to complete. I wanted to produce the highest level of happy for my clients as well as myself, and I realized that big changes needed to be made. Fast-forward to today, and many refinements, today, True Photography is made up of a very small, hand-picked team of talented individuals. Not a photo factory. We are people who love to photograph and are dedicated to creating amazing images for your wedding day. We share a common vision of what we feel good wedding photography should be. This has taken years to refine, and we continue to grow together as creative artists. With the technical expertise, and innovative mindset of our team, there are no limits to what we can produce.

About
A "True" pioneer. She once turned bath salts into a usable soap. She allegedly was the original inventor of the far too under rated spork. Finally we can have soup and easily grab the chicken all at once. She was the first to run a half marathon in just under 26.2 miles. She hates peanuts but loves peanut butter. She was part of the 60's revolution but was born in the 70's. She is less than nothing, but so much more. If you are one of the amazing few that has actually read through this bio, you have won $500 off your wedding package. Just mention "I read Kim's Bio" and the savings are yours!

About
Hi, I'm Avalon :) I've been interested in photography ever since my mom gifted me a polaroid camera as a child. Then I fell in love with film photography; developing photos in the dark room of my high school. I became captivated with measuring light. That passion lead to my graduation from the University of California, Santa Cruz with a Film and Digital Media degree. By being raised in a family of creative individuals, I've come to love how to think outside of the box. Also having a mother who has been a wedding planner since I was born has allowed me to fall in love with love, and how people express their unique love on their wedding day. I know every client's style is unique and I'm are here to capture original and authentic imagery. Photography and/or cinematography, to me, is the measurement of light and happiness in every environment and my goal is capturing that moment; allowing it to last on forever more through image and video. Let me help you create the imagery that leaves you and I smiling, and all others speechless.

About
I have always loved taking photos. Landscapes and cityscapes, but most especially portraits in all forms. I love the individuality that comes out in an image; an expression will flash across a face and often the lens is the only way to grab it. To be able to capture the true personality of my subject, to meet new people, travel to far off places and have fun? This is why I do what I do! Weddings have been part of my life since 2002 when I signed on as an assistant for a well known photographer in South Florida. Over the years I've had the pleasure of working with talented photographers and have amazing clients in Florida, Georgia, Colorado, and New England and now San Diego... A few other things about me: - My first camera was a blue plastic Fisher Price when I was seven. - If I wasn't a photographer I'd be a marine biologist. You know, so I could ride around in a boat all day playing with whales and dolphins. - Molly's my 12-year-old puppy. She goes everywhere with me and has traveled to 38 states. (That's her kissing me below.) - Sometimes I add things that I've already completed to my "to do" list just so I can cross them off. - I've been all over the continental US, so if I could go anywhere I'd travel to Nepal, Australia, New Zealand (again), Africa (everywhere), Russia, Hawaii, Spain, and Ireland. (This is not an all-inclusive list.) - A major goal: to learn more than 10 words of Spanish. - And another one: learn to play piano.
