WELCOME planning brides!
💍 You’re recently engaged, and just started planning the wedding of your dreams.
You’re now looking for one of the best Charlotte wedding photographers. Not just anyone with a camera — but someone who specializes in documenting weddings in an artistic, editorial way. Someone who understands that this is the most important day of your lives and you only get one of these — no re-dos.
If this sounds like you — congrats — we may be a fit.
My work has been internationally-published multiple times, and I’ve been featured in some of Charlotte’s most prominent magazines as well.
Welcome to Robert Burns II Photography & Videography.
In the last 15 years, we have had the privilege and pleasure to photograph 200+ weddings, with dozens of rave reviews gathered along the way.
My name is Robert, and I am the Owner, Lead Photographer and Editor-in-Chief of BRIDE Magazine, and possibly the guy you selected to photograph you looking like you belong in Southern Bride or Martha Stewart Weddings.

Because you simply shouldn’t have to…
…Wait 6 months to see a single photo from your wedding.
Ask “the other company”: how soon they deliver Previews photos? — I’m 24 hours.
…Wonder if your photographer is shooting with multiple cameras and backup, just in case.
I shoot with two cameras with two memory cards each. I have literally never lost a wedding and shot 200+.
…Think “OMG, what do I do with my hands??” during your editorial bridal photo shoot or if family photos will be a hot mess.
WHAT THEY SAY EVERY SINGLE TIME:
“OMG WOW, YOU GIVE GREAT DIRECTION”
“JESUS, FAMILY PHOTOS WENT SO QUICKLY!”
…WORRY IF YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER WILL EVEN SHOW UP.
I am a full-time wedding photographer and my entire life is in this business. it’s beyond “i always show up” — it’s…
“I literally always show up early and give 10,000% every time. for 15 years.
A Few Accolades:
I recognize that awards and publications do not define an artist, however, I do appreciate them. I have received a few cool distinctions over the last 15 years. Here are a few:

CHARLOTTE LUXURY full-service wedding photography & videography
WHO WE ARE
Robert Burns II Photography & Videography, LLC is a luxury wedding photography and videography company based in Charlotte, NC, available worldwide. We serve couples in the Southeastern US cities, including: Charlotte, Asheville, Charleston, Atlanta, Raleigh, Wilmington, Los Angeles, Orlando and more.
We also proudly serve the Philadelphia area, and take a limited number of weddings in this market each year.
Now, the sixty-four-thousand-dollar question: when there are thousands of other talented photographers out there, why choose us?
What makes us different is we’re completely unlike the millions of other one-man show photographers out there. I don’t compete with other photographers because I’m not just a photographer like so many others — I’m a photo & video storyteller who has built an established wedding full-service business over 15 years that creates unique, incredible wedding experiences for my clients through photography, videography, physical art, custom albums and more.
The experience you get with me and my company is totally different.
THE EXPERIENCE
We are a high-end luxury service for both local North Carolina and destination couples. Where other photographers might show up on the big day and meet you for the first time then (this can be awkward), we spend weeks getting to know our clients personalities and needs so that we can serve you best.
Our premium packages are built to include multiple sessions, from the engagement session, to your bridal session, to your bridal boudoir/intimate gift session, to your actual wedding day. Following these sessions, we create a wide range of physical media that adds to the custom boutique luxury experience, and allows you to never forget your day.
Our top-tier packages automatically include industry-leading custom album design services that ship handcrafted physical albums straight to your home address, following a simple proofing process. These arrive tailored to you, and even come gift-wrapped, little touches that help to make the experience truly luxurious.
Basically, we are not your everyday photography company.
We offer the following services:
Engagement, Wedding, Bridal Portraits, Couples Portraits, Bridal Boudoir
Photography
Videography
Combined Photo + Video Packages
Large Print (Metal/Canvas) & Custom Album Design Packages
CLICK TO SEE OUR ALBUMS close-up
These albums come included with every booked EXCLUSIF package, in addition to your complimentary engagement, bridal and/or boudoir session.
Did you know that Robert was recently named one of the Top 12 Boudoir Photographers in the Charlotte Area by Peerspace?
We are now offering Bridal Boudoir sessions through “White Lace,” also part of our top-level EXCLUSIF package. This brand-new service offering pairs a bridal boudoir session with expert posing, access to our extensive 50+ piece boudoir client wardrobe, included hair & makeup, and custom album design. If you’re interested in a first-class experience with an magazine editorial-level photographer, then you need to treat you and your partner to a White Lace shoot (PSSST — these can be a surprise gift, too!).
