Charles Moll Photography
Hey, I’m Charles, my friends call me (CJ or Chuck). I am a storyteller at heart with a passion for capturing authentic moments. I believe that real is always better and that people and relationships matter more than my portfolio.
I graduated in 2017 with a degree in film and photography from Montana State University. Upon graduation, I worked for various nonprofits, and photographed all over the world, but after photographing my second wedding, I found my dream job.
Growing up, I always had a deep love for stories and a desire to become a storyteller. Photography has become my medium of choice to bring these stories to life. Through my lens, I aim to weave narratives that transport you back to your most treasured moments.
I have won some awards along the way from WPJA, The Knot, and WeddingWire, and was voted Bozeman’s Choice wedding and portrait photographer, while this is incredibly fun and humbling, ultimately what matters more is that I seek to provide each client with the best experience possible
When working with clients, I adopt a natural and unobtrusive approach. Rather than heavily directing poses, I prefer to give prompts and allow you to be yourselves. By capturing the genuine essence of who you are, I create images that resonate with authenticity and emotion.
My goal is to create impactful photographs that build a bridge to your cherished memories. Each image I capture is intended to transport you back, evoke emotions, and immortalize the beauty of your special moments.
Whether you are looking for a photographer, a friend, or someone to bounce ideas off of, I would be thrilled to talk with you!
