I have no storage on my phone so I updated my iCloud storage hoping that would clear things up and im still out. Can I move my photos to iCloud and delete from my phone? If so how do i do that?

If you turn on iCloud Photos and also turn on the Optimize iPhone Storage option in iCloud Photos you may be able to reduce the storage space used on your phone. See the information in Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support including the following:
If you need to save space on your device
iCloud Photos keeps all your photos and videos in their original, high-resolution version. To save storage space on your device, you can turn on Optimize Storage.
If you turn on Optimize Storage, iCloud Photos automatically manages the size of your library on your device. Your original photos and videos are stored in iCloud and space-saving versions are kept on your device. Your library is optimized only when you need space, starting with the photos and videos you access least. You can download the original photos and videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need them.
If you turn on Download Originals, iCloud Photos keeps your original, full-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and on your device.
