I’m bubbling with excitement to share a sneak peek into something truly magical that’s coming your way: Twin Cities Personality Portraits!
They’re not just pictures. They’re a celebration of your child’s unique essence, capturing the laughter, the curious glances, the playful pouts, and all those tiny details that make them who they are. We’re about to embark on a journey of expression, authenticity, and genuine smiles. They also unlock your child’s confidence. My Personality Portraits create confidence by creating a space and environment where kids feel totally comfortable being their whole selves. From serious to silly, fun to pouty, introverted to extroverted – it’s about providing a secure space for them to explore and embrace their individuality.
Because childhood is fleeting, and every stage deserves to be preserved in a way that truly reflects your child’s personality. These portraits are not just for today; they’re a time capsule that will make you smile, reminisce, and maybe even shed a tear when you look back years from now.





🌟 Wholesome Moments: From giggles to pouts, I’ll capture the genuine expressions that define your child.
🌈 Playful Atmosphere: My sessions are designed to be fun and relaxed, allowing your child’s personality to shine.
📸 Exclusive Location: I’m curating a unique spot in [central based to Minneapolis/St. Paul] that adds magic to each frame.

As your premier Twin Cities Natural Light Photographer, I cater to those who effortlessly blend a laid-back aura with refined organization, showcasing a creative spirit and an exquisite taste for art and luxury.
More than just a photographer, I am a storyteller passionate about capturing the authentic essence of individuals and families. Your unique spirit propels me to create images that transcend the superficial, unveiling layers of personality and connections that narrate your distinctive journey.
For me, creativity is not merely about freezing moments; it’s about composing visual poetry. Each session is an immersive experience, a journey that seamlessly combines relaxation with luxury.

Oh hey there, nice to meet you!
I’m Shannon O’Malley— a Minneapolis-based (soon-to-be Dallas, TX!) photographer who specializes in online dating profile photography, personal branding portraits, business headshots, and senior sessions. Whether you’re showing up on dating apps, LinkedIn, or your website, I create natural light photos that help you feel confident, magnetic, and true to yourself.
With over 15 years of experience — and a journey that’s taken me from single mom to entrepreneur (with a CBS feature along the way) — I’ve seen firsthand how the right photos can open doors. From attracting more aligned matches to landing dream clients, your image is often the first impression. Let’s make it count.
I also help service providers and creatives get discovered through AI search tools like ChatGPT. I’m the creator of the AI Discovery Checklist and the upcoming course Booked by ChatGPT, designed to help people like you show up where your dream clients are already asking, “Who should I hire?”
Oh, and I’m also the founder of the Empowered Evolution Mentorship Program — where I teach photographers how to build profitable, sustainable businesses with intentional marketing, smart SEO, and systems that don’t burn you out.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me with my husband, my son, and our beautifully blended family — soaking up everyday joy here in the Twin Cities (for now!). We’re relocating to Dallas, Texas in 2026, where I’ll continue offering my signature photography experience for daters, creatives, and business owners in the DFW area.
Ready for photos that actually feel like you? Whether you’re leveling up your dating profile, your personal brand, or your online visibility, I’ll guide you every step of the way.Let’s book your session — or start with the free AI Discovery Checklist.
