They didn’t just capture the moment,
they captured the feeling of our wedding day. Our photos were everything I had hoped for and more!
AWARD-WINNING WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN BOZEMAN, MT
Beauty in the way things are, not in the way they were forced to be.
When I photographed my second wedding, I found my dream job. Instead of trying to photograph the day how I had seen it done on Instagram countless times before, I became an observer rather than a director. Watching the day unfold, I realized the best photographs are often the fleeting moments between you and the people you hold dear.
What could your wedding look like?

Award-Winning Montana Wedding Photographers
Hi, I’m Charles. I am a Montana wedding photographer based in Bozeman MT. I will never forget the first time I saw Montana. I was 5 years old on a road trip and my heart was immediately captured by its immense beauty. In 2013 I moved to Montana to attend Montana State University and in 2017 I graduated from MSU’s School of Film and Photography.
Before starting my own business, I worked for various nonprofits and had the privilege of creating images all over the world.
In 2019 I began specializing in weddings because I truly believe in the philosophy “do one thing and do it crazy well.”
In 2020, I married my amazing wife Delaney, COVID happened, messing up our wedding and my business. However, there was a silver lining in all of this. We ended up having a more intimate wedding without all the pressure and this gave me an opportunity to reassess everything in my business for when I restarted it in 2021.
In 2022 Charles Moll Photography won the Knot’s Best of Weddings and Wedding Wire’s Couples Choice Award.
In 2023 I was blown away when I was nominated for Bozeman’s Choice wedding and portrait photographer and ended up winning 3rd place! Since then I have won other awards, but as grateful as I am to be able to do what I love and have people notice, that isn’t what matters.
In 2024 we won Bozeman’s #1 Photographer.
What matters, is that we deliver the best experience possible in wedding photography and are always looking for ways to improve. Your photos will be out of this world. But so will your whole experience, from start to finish.
