About

A long time resident of the Raleigh area, Brian’s background in visually diverse fields add a unique and timeless flavor to his photographical work. With training in cinematography and concert lighting, his eye for composition and an appreciation of dramatic lighting was permanently ingrained into his soul.

Upon embarking in pursuit of a professional photography career, Brian quickly enjoyed great success and gained immediate respect from his local peers. Capturing the Chief of Photography position for Cary Magazine only 6 months after he begun freelancing for them is a true testament of his photographic style and vision.

Brian has further developed his photojournalistic and artistic senses with numerous weddings, galas, commercial, editorial and product photography projects which all enable him to be considered one of the area’s most well-rounded photographers.

As a photographer who is always striving to push his boundaries, Brian still pursues Commercial, Architectural and other disciplines of photography but specializes in Wedding Photography in and around the Raleigh, NC area.

Brian has learned to effortlessly anticipate movement, possesses an inherent knowledge of the most photogenic angles and is always watching for the dramatic & beautiful light to capture that unique moment in time—then he does it again and again. The result—a photographic record of your wedding unmatched in emotion and immediacy.

Brian Mullins Photography is a proud member of the following organizations:
WPPI - Wedding & Portrait Photographers International

Awesome all around!

We eloped and were married at the Durham county courthouse with only our parents and Brian present.

Brian’s communication and accommodation during the entire process was spot-on and wonderful. His attention to detail, looking for the special moments, and creating them had an artistic flair that captured the loving, celebratory, and intimate moods of the day.

We will be forever thankful we chose Brian as our photographer…his photos will bring us joy for the rest of our lives.

10/10 Wedding Photography and Service

5 stars are not enough for the quality product and service provided by Brian and his team. While Brian was already booked for our wedding day, Aaron from his team exceeded all of our expectations. He was the perfect mix of funny, kind, and professional, and our friends and family had a blast with him and his assistant Mike photographing our big day. Leading up to the wedding, Aaron was super easy to communicate with and Brian consistently checked in to ensure that all of our planning needs were fulfilled and whether he could help in any way.

During the rehearsal dinner and on the day of the wedding, Aaron was absolutely perfect. He was the perfect maestro for a wedding day and helped to ensure we didn't have to worry about a thing - he really went above and beyond to both capture the day and make sure that we were having a truly great day. He and Mike captured every moment and we had so much fun re-living the day through our photos when we got them a few weeks after the wedding. We are so, so happy we went with Brian, Aaron, and the team at Brian Mullins Photography for our wedding photos, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!!

Brian Mullins should be your photographer!!

I would give more stars if I could! Brian was incredible to work with and captured some amazing photos for us! Not only were his photos incredible, he was also a wonderful resource on guiding us through the wedding planning process. He gave us advice and helped answer so many of our questions relating to all aspects of the wedding and planning for it. I definitely recommend Brian Mullins Photography for whatever event you may be planning!

Timeless photos that capture bride, groom, and Every guest

Brian gives you 2 pro photographers to make sure every special moment is captured. Not just the bride and groom, but that moment when Mom starts breaking it down on the dance floor, or Auntie and her adult children share a laugh and hugs over cocktails. I heard horror stories from friends about photographers that neglect everyone but the pretty bridesmaids... With Mullins Photography you get drama, laughs, dances, every pose and candid moment you could want. You get family and friends captured at their best. And you end up laughing when it's your turn, because Brian and his fellow photogs are clever about putting you at ease. they're there when they need to be, and they know instinctively when to be unobtrusive and capture the moments as they happen. The biggest question is what to do with the photos when it's so hard to pick your favorites! Timeless photos that are not just "on trend," but will stand the test of time.

Fun and Talented Photographer!

We are so happy we decided to have Brian (and Rebecca) as our wedding photographers! We did an engagement photo session with Brian and he was very fun and easy-going and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos from our wedding are amazing. When we looked at them, it brought us right back to all of those special moments from that day. Brian did a great job of dealing with our huge, rowdy, and loud group of family and friends. Thank you for taking charge of the family photo session during cocktail hour and helping us get photos with the whole (very, very large) family. During dinner, Brian encouraged us to escape the excitement for a few minutes and have a chance to be alone and take a walk outside. He created some awesome photos while we had a chance to breathe and take in the moment together. Brian turned around the perfectly edited photos very promptly (faster than expected) and we were so excited to see them. All of the special moments of the ceremony and the party scenes from the dance floor were amazing!

AMAZING & Highly Recommend


Brian was AMAZING! From our first conversation I knew he was our photographer. Like many brides I was vey anxious on the day of my wedding. He helped me feel at ease and has such a great personality. He is efficient and very likable. Then the best part of course was the actual photographs which are outstanding. I would highly recommend Brian Mullins!

Great fun creating amazing photos!

I could not speak more highly about Brian with Brian Mullins Photography. He is incredibly professional and his experience is evident in his work. He always produces high quality photos with extreme attention to detail. Not only is his work amazing but he has an ability to create great relationships with those he is working with. Brian has photographed me for graduations and now as a bride and he always makes me feel comfortable in front of the camera. I could not recommend him more!!

Best Second Decision!

Having Brian photograph our engagement and wedding was the second best decision we made! (Getting married being the first, of course!) We interviewed several photographers and what stood out the most to us is that Brian wanted to get to know us first so he could capture our personalities in photo. When we got our pictures back we relived the most beautiful days of our life all over again and it was amazing! He was able to capture some of the most memorable moments of our night without us even remembering he was even there taking the pictures. Him and his assistant were almost invisible yet they were everywhere. We will forever be able to look back and our beautiful photos and remember our wedding day through his impeccable work.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

When I think of the finest wedding professionals and indeed photographers in the business, Brian always comes quickly to mind. Brian is a stand out talent both in his ability to craft stunning emotion-filled images, and in his commitment to professionalism. No detail is too small and he is constantly working to further perfect his craft. Brian doesn't simply capture beautiful images, but truly works to craft the story of your day and what it means to you into each image he produces. His knowledge of the art, emotion and technical side of photography are rare indeed. As a film maker, I am always impressed at Brian's ability to work seamlessly with other wedding professionals. I judge photographers not only by their final work but how they handle themselves on a wedding day, their ability to adapt and produce consistent results regardless of the circumstances. He's a committed wedding professional who understands the needs of other vendors in making sure your day is as stress free and as beautifully executed as possible. Brian is a unique talent and a choice that you simply will not regret for your wedding.

We have worked with Brian and Jenn at several events, and they are always awesome to work with. They give off a fun and relaxed vibe while capturing the little moments that would easily slip by unnoticed. There have been several weddings that we have done together, and I've seen their work later wondering when things happened that they had captured?!? I would highly recommend Brian and/or Jenn Aan for any event that you would need them for!
