Welcome to Aaron Dolezal Photography and Media, where every click of my camera tells a story and every video frames a journey. Photography isn't just my profession—it's my playground, passion, and way of connecting with the world. Through my lens, I explore life’s rich tapestry, capturing everything from startup family-owned companies to intricate plates of food, acrobatic routines, or multinational fashion corporations. Each project is a new adventure and story waiting to be told.

"These were lifestyle portraits of my oldest daughter, Summer done by the owner Aaron. I have never been so happy with the results of a photography session with my daughter. They are full of cinematic emotion and depth. I have this photo pictured above as a wall print framed on my wall to this day, as well as many others from her session."
