Hello.

I love what I do and look for inspiration in everything I do.

This blog is designed to allow everyone to see what I am up to now.  That will usually include my business and photography activities, but I will occasionally put things on here about my life, family, and thoughts.  This is a place that I can let you get to know me a little more personally.

I have a huge passion for creating moments that will be forever treasures for those people that I work with.  Let me share that with you.

I am a Minnesota girl, but as of November 2009 I will reside in the great state of Oklahoma!  If you live in Oklahoma give me a call so we can meet for your photography needs!

Feel free to leave a comment.  I love hearing what you have to say!

Summer | Jobs, Weddings, and Travel

Lots of things have been going on here at Amy Rae Photography, both professionally and personally. Here is a little update on what has been going on and what is to come. Earlier this year I signed a contract to overhaul my branding and with that a lot of my business model and how things run. With that will come some big changes as well as some small ones! I am very excited to share everything that I have been working on. I hope to preview the new look in October. More will come along with that over the next few months. I like to think that Amy Rae Photography is growing up as I have learned a lot on this journey of building a business, finding my niche, and passion. I also am waiting for the new look of the blog to launch before any recent weddings are posted. I feel that I want the work that I am most proud of and that reflects my style to be up in conjunctions with the new Amy Rae Photography look.

Last April I was in Minnesota for nearly 1.5 months. I was able to enjoy time with family as well as photograph a few weddings. In June I returned back to Oklahoma and I have recently started working at the local hospital on the med/surg floor for nursing. It is a very casual job to keep me busy when time is slow! In the middle of August I returned to Minnesota for three weddings! I also took advantage of the time off during the week and spent it at my cabin. It was a much needed retreat! Tonight I am packing up and getting ready for the long drive back to Oklahoma. But not without a trip to the great Minnesota Get-Together (the State Fair). I will have to drag myself to spinning class after eating all the fried food on a stick!

In just a couple days I will be back in Oklahoma getting back into my nursing job and cooking dinner for Matt (I miss my hubby)!! I will be back in Minnesota for a week at the end of the month and then the travel slows down again for a bit! I have LOVED my time at home, but it is time to go back and live life! I will leave you with a preview from the three weddings I did during this last trip to Minnesota!



Four Years Ago | I Married My Best Friend

Happy Anniversary baby!! I can’t believe it has been four years! Even longer that we have been together. Matt and I started dating in 2002 (he was only 16)! We got married after I finished my nursing school while he was still in college! Some thought we were still a little young, but looking back I wouldn’t have changed anything! I have had so much fun being married, independent, learning, and growing! We have seen the world together (more than once) and watched our friendship, love, and respect for each other grow every day! I am so excited that it is my turn to see Matt live his dream and that we can help each other to be the best versions of ourselves!!

Love you Matt!
