Laughter, glam, frogs and love, that’s what filled Angela and Colter’s wedding day just last week!  Might seem a little weird to list frogs in there but one of my favorite parts of the day was when a flowergirl caught a frog for me!  Frogs are so cute and it was SUCH an adorable photo […]

When I say that this couple is near and dear to my heart it is a complete understatement.  I have known the bride for close to 20 years and she is my husband’s twin sister.  The groom, Oh Charlie…the first time I met Charlie I knew that this guy was made to be one of […]

When every Saturday in June is rainy and crummy it’s natural to be a little apprehensive for an entirely outdoor wedding.  But Shelby and Austin completely lucked out with only a few passing showers late in the evening for their beautiful outdoor wedding on their family property.  Sometimes a simple intimate wedding is the most […]

I think Mother Nature wanted to see how far she could push me this summer.  Three weekends in a row with rainy mornings on Saturday and on John and Lindsey’s wedding day Mother Nature definitely pulled out all the stops.  It was a deluge of rain complete with tons of wind and probably a little […]

I love randomly quoting movies and I think we can all agree that the Brad Pitt “What’s in the box?!” from Seven is one of the best ones.  It’s such a versatile reference!  I’ll admit, I even use it on Christmas and birthdays, yup I’m a dork. But that’s not what we’re here to chat […]

Mother nature seems to have the idea that the weekends are the best time for lots of rain during the summer.  But a little rain (okay it was a lot of rain) never stopped this wedding photographer and it certainly wasn’t going to stop this fabulous couple! Jessica and Sam were high school sweethearts and […]

Waking up to a thunderstorm and watching it rain for hours the morning of your wedding isn’t exactly any bride’s ideal wedding day.  But that was the reality for Kayla and Nate on their wedding day in early June and neither one of them batted an eye while it poured all morning.  As luck would […]

O.M.G. Guys. It’s here. I am SO excited that I might have to use more than two exclamation points!!!! (Which FYI is apparently a no no in the world of copywriting) Welcome to the NEW Schrage Photography website and blog!  I have been working long hours behind the scenes on a new website and brand […]

One of my final outdoor weddings of the season was Melissa and Kyle’s wedding at BWB Ranch in October.  October is such a hit or miss month for weather and I was super impressed that everyone toughed it out for the outdoor ceremony despite the chilly temps and impending rain.  Speaking of rain, that pesky […]

For the second year I ditched the freezing cold Northern Minnesota temps for the sun and warmth of Arizona to attend Showit United. You may be wondering, what is Showit United?  Well, let me tell you.  United is a four day photography conference to teach, train and inspire.  But I don’t like calling it a […]
