About Carin Rene Photo
Carin Rene Photo
I’m a wedding, engagement, and boudoir photographer based in Missoula, Montana, serving couples throughout Western Montana. My work is bold, vibrant, and joy-filled, with a focus on real connection, candid moments, and helping couples feel comfortable and fully present on their wedding day.
What sets me apart is the experience I create for my couples. I bring a calm, supportive presence to every wedding day, helping clients feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. With gentle guidance when needed and a documentary approach the rest of the time, I focus on capturing real emotion, genuine connection, and the moments that matter most.

Amazing experience
Thank you for being such a pleasant, thoughtful, and amazing photographer at our son’s wedding. You captured the joy, love, and little moments that made the day so special. It was such a pleasure visiting with you — your calm, kind presence made everyone feel comfortable, and your work truly reflects the heart of the day.
Carin Dougherty•Dec 17, 2025Thank you so much, Rae. Your words mean everything to me. It was lovely chatting with you over dinner and I can't thank you enough for taking the time to write and post this review for me. I'm so glad I was able to capture Gabe and Stephanie's wedding~ it was such a beautiful celebration. 💜

The BEST Photographer
Carin was absolutely wonderful! She made our day flow so smoothly with all different variations of pictures, and was so flexible with our wedding day. We had a great morning filled with sunshine, and then rain towards the end of our reception. Carin was so willing to take pictures in the rain with us, and made sure we got every shot we wanted! She spent countless hours helping us make albums, taking our engagement pictures, and even helped me feel comfortable doing a boudoir shoot. We will be using her in the future for any shoots we may need, you can't go wrong in booking with her. She was amazing to work with, and we cannot recommend her enough!
Carin Dougherty•Dec 17, 2025Thank you Quinci! I appreciate you guys so much!! I have loved working with you and Mitch over the past year, and I had so much fun photographing your wedding! What a beautiful day!! Loved getting to meet your friends and family~ you guys truly have something special, and I'm honored I got to play a small role in your story. 💜

Fantastic photographer!!
Carin is amazing!! She photographed our small wedding at a family cabin. She fit into the day so flawlessly and made us feel so comfortable. She was easy to communicate with leading up to the event and made sure we got all the shots we wanted on the day of. We got our sneak peek and full gallery back very quickly and I'm absolutely in awe of the photos. They are stunning! Carin is so kind and talented - I highly recommend her!!
Carin Dougherty•Dec 13, 2025Thank you so much, Bethany! You guys were so lovely to work with, and I really enjoyed meeting and talking with your family as well. The cabin is such a cool family spot~ and all the more special that you got to get married there. Thank you for booking me for your wedding photography. I hope we can keep in touch! 💜

Best Photographer You'll Find!!
Carin was very professional, incredibly positive and fun, prepared and went above and beyond to make our wedding special. She captured our day perfectly and our guests kept commenting on how hard she was working and how much they enjoyed her. Not only that, but her packages provide so much value at a great price. My husband and I can't share enough positive things about Carin and would recommend her to anyone looking to have their big day captured in a very unique and beautiful way!!
