Charlie Buhler outdoors beside a garden wall

Charlie Buhler is a director and photographer originally from South Dakota.

Born to an African American mother and Caucasian father, Charlie brings an inherently multicultural point of view to her work. She is especially interested in normalizing and bringing nuance to experiences and narratives that rarely make it on screen, particularly those of women and people of color.

Her first feature film, Before the Fire, received worldwide distribution through Dark Sky Entertainment. Her documentary Rosebud follows the lives of three Native American hip-hop artists on a reservation in South Dakota.

Her work has been recognized by shots Awards, ADC Awards, Clio Music Awards, The One Show and the Webby Awards.

Her clients and collaborators include Delta Air Lines, Ulta Beauty, DJ Snake, Summer Walker, Robert Glasper, Target, Google, Snapchat, Calvin Klein, GE, Narciso Rodriguez, The New York Times, Andra Day, Kamasi Washington and Interscope.
