About Gilded

Roberto is a full-time portrait photographer with a hustle to make the world his. GILDED MEDIA was founded during Roberto's time studying at UNC Charlotte working towards an Economics Degree. Once he graduated, he went off to Corporate America working in management. Soon he realized that the corporate life wasn't for him. In August 2020, he took the risk and quit his job during the Pandemic to pursue entrepreneurship with his passion of Photography. The rest is history. 

His passion for photography has been there since childhood. On school trips, he'd have a disposable camera. For Christmas during middle school, he wanted a digital camera. In high school, he was on the yearbook staff. A true story of someone following their passion and making it work.

Roberto offers a variety of styles including portraitures, landscape, and event photography. Approaching 10 years of professional experience, Gilded Images is always ready to capture those GOLDEN moments in your life!
