All photo sales are now in-house!

Since I began offering print sales on-line, I’ve felt somewhat disconnected from my clients and the experience of ordering the photos you love. With the upgrade of my website, I now have the ability to take orders online while working directly with you to insure the photo is of the highest quality and delivered in a timely manner.

For my existing clients, your password will remain the same.  Simply click on the “order photos” link on my web age and enter your password.  It will automatically take you to your gallery(s) for viewing.

I hope you enjoy this enhancement and I look forward to seeing your order!

Warmest Regards,

Brian Mullins

Bridal Portrait @ The Umstead - Cary, NC

This week I had a bridal session with a June bride of mine.  Christina was so fun to work with and, despite the weather, we had a great session that really complimented her look & dress.  We ended up with 3 different areas to shoot in at the Umstead.  I really think you have to work to take a bad photo in that place.  The furnishing, lighting, art work and staff are all top of the line.  Here are a few shots from the session:

Stalheim Wedding - Raleigh, NC

I had the great honor and pleasure of working with Lisa & Michael this weekend.  The intimate ceremony took place at the historic 2nd Empire restaurant in downtown Raleigh where their family joined them to honor and celebrate their marriage. After the ceremony, the couple sat down to a gourmet meal with their family while sharing stories and enjoying each others company.  After the meal, we traveled to Hillsborough, NC and was greeted by 150 of their friends and relatives to help celebrate their big day.

It was my pleasure to get to know Lisa & Michael, their parents & family.  The entire day was a big celebration of things they hold dear - their family, friends and each other.  Here are a few shots from the day!

Architecture in Durham, NC

John Warasila of Alliance Architecture, the company that designed the wonderful meeting space for Rigsbee Hall, saw my photos from a monthly NACE event and contacted me to photograph some of his other designs. As it turns out, the space above Rigsbee Hall (and behind it for that matter) are condominiums designed by John and he wanted me to photograph them for his company. Since I hadn’t seen one previously I wasn’t sure what I was going to find when I arrived. Well, I’ll have to let the pictures speak for themselves but the property is amazing! John managed to save much of the historical feeling of the building - exposed brick, ceiling joists, etc. The condominium I was in had a great ultra-modern feel that nicely accentuated John’s design.

Here are a few photos from the session:

Portraits!

This past weekend I worked with the winner of a prize I donated to the Kirk of Kildaire auction held at McGregor Downs in Cary, NC.  The prize was a portrait session and a 16×20 finished image (Plus the fact they got to work directly with me, which is priceless to begin with. :)).   Instead of using the session for herself, Lisa Eberhart ended up using it to photograph her daughters while they were both in town.

For the session we ended up going back to the scene of the crime, McGregor Downs, and wandered out around the grounds shooting in different locations.  We ended up getting great results from the session and I can’t wait until I can sit down and talk with Lisa and her daughters for their pick.  Here’s a few of my favorites!
