Hi there!

Hey there, I'm Amie. Most days you can find me pouring my heart into learning the art form of hot yoga or working at home while enjoying my favorite sweet treat.. dark chocolate m&ms.

Friends!!! Truly my favorite online shop is doing an amazing anniversary giveaway!!! Go follow @carlyjeanlosangeles and get yourself styled up for spring and summer season!!! Or if you ever wanted to start a capsule wardrobe the @carlyjeanlosangeles girls will be there to help you every step of the way!!! And their sweet Instagram stories are so fun and informative!!!

Isn’t this so beautiful??? Image by the talented @samkelly_photo!
She is doing a online course called family films with Sam. And guess what it launches tomorrow!!! She is so pumped up to share this with the Photography community but also share with moms that want to document their daily life and show you how making videos from the photos on your phone can truly be a gift to give to your family! Go check out Sam’s beautiful work at @samkelly_life or @samkelly_photo

"We need to be in a wider community not because we're attempting to sharpen our clarity on a subject, but because we are hoping to soften the edges of our heart." Oh does this girl need a community of girls to go to from time to time! Do you feel alone in your world? How can I encourage you and be there for you? I am in a new community not knowing ANYONE so I am jumping in to MAKE my own community with intentional friendships that will share, support and encourage one another! Who wants to read Girl, wash your face by Rachel Hollis with me and we can form community by reading together!!! @amiehansen.photographer

Motherhood is a million moments that GOD weaves together with grace, redemption, laughter, tears and most of all love. @amiehansen.photographer

Live less out of habit and more out of intent! Oh these words need to be more lived out by me in this quiet season of life.
GOD is speaking into my heart and I should probably listen more and not be so eager and anxious to begin.
How can I pray over you my friends? @amiehansen.photographer @aht1122 #siouxfallssdfamilyphotography #amiehansenphotography #letthekids #childhoodunplugged #clickinmoms #vsco #candidchildhood #artifactuprising #thatsdarling #lifestylephotographer #minimal #portraitsofmotherhood #thefountcollective #lookslikefilm #subjectlight #cameramama #lightinspired #livefolk #featurememozi #thebloomforum #thelifestylecollective #littleandbrave #liveauthentic #nothingisordinary #tellon #habitandhome #theartofslowliving #letthembelittle #fortsmitharphotographer #greenwoodarphotographer #lifestylephotographer

Psalm 37:7 Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act.

Dear GOD, help me wait well. Help me know what to do and when to do it. Help me do the holy work of rest, even when I would rather work and worry. Give me peace, and teach me to trust you as I wait for you to speak to me.

Amen... all is well with me BUT I do find myself restless with this new journey of life. I am eager to listen to families stories again and connect the story with a vision of what I long for family photography. For me photographing moments are all about connecting, to bring out the love, the joy, the sadness, the pain... a moment. So while I know in my heart this time is for me to grow and wait so I will just continue to look back and share moments that moved me and remember that moment witnessing the miracle of life in this sweet mama's arms and GOD answering all of her prayers.

Happy Heart Day! We are going to celebrate this love day by making chocolate chip cookies and sharing the cookies with our new neighbors!
We are so proud of our boys during this whole moving transition! They have been brave at school and making new friends! We are finally settled into our home and loving our new space.
In this quiet season of life for me I am encouraged to be still with what is next for me in this new community and thankful for this time. Hope all is going well for you all!
Hugs to you!
