Copy them all across and then cut them and paste them into the right folder.
I'm guessing there is a setting in the bluetooth dongle's options that sets the default location it saves to so have a look for that too.

I'm 99% certain that it will be using the systems default location for 'My Documents' if there is no option on the Bluetooth software.

To change it, Microsoft have got the details of it here (assuming you use XP):

To change the default location of the My Documents folder, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, and then point to My Documents.
  2. Right-click My Documents, and then click Properties.
  3. Click the Target tab.
  4. In the Target box, do one of the following:
    • Type the path to the folder location that you want, and then click OK. For example, D:\My Stuff.

      If the folder does not exist, the Create Message dialog box is displayed. Click Yes to create the folder, and then click OK.

      -or-
    • Click Move, click the folder in which to store your documents, and then click OK twice.

      If you need to create a new folder, click Make New Folder. Type a name for the folder, and then click OK twice.
  5. In the Move Documents box, click Yes to move your documents to the new location, or click No to leave your documents in the original location.

Bluetooth uses some funny transfer protocols.

It could be its hard-coded to maintain maximum compatibility - so that ANY phone knows where to look for photos that available to it on the PC.

If you are really bored - look up OBEX
