oh hey there, nice to meet you!
Hello! I'm Shannon, a professional photographer based in the Twin Cities, with a passion for helping people truly shine—whether it’s capturing portraits, boosting confidence in front of the camera, or guiding creatives on their professional journeys.
My photography journey began with capturing everyday beauty, but it evolved when I realized the power of a well-crafted image, especially in the world of online dating. I know this from personal experience—I met my husband on Bumble, so I understand how important that first impression can be. This is why I'm passionate about online dating portraits—my goal is to help you stand out by capturing your authentic self, making a meaningful connection.
Beyond photography, I’m dedicated to helping others discover their greatness. To me, greatness is about finding your unique gifts and talents, using them to make a positive impact on those around you. Through my mentorship program, I aim to help photographers and creatives tap into their potential, build successful businesses, and make a lasting difference. I also offer a Self-Portrait Course to help individuals feel confident in front of the camera and am currently developing the LinkedIn Success Blueprint, a course designed to elevate your professional presence.
Whether you’re looking for portraits that reflect your true self or mentorship to build your creative career, I’m here to help you uncover your greatness and make a lasting, authentic impact.
Cold weather and snow, give me the desert any day
Chocolate, I know I'm in the minority here
Set schedules, I'm a free spirit through and through
Shopping in a store, online shopping for the win
Listening to other people eat, it makes me angry LOL
Being late; If I'm on time, I'm late. I'm always early
Strolls in the mountains, feeling the sun on my back
Shorts, tank top, and flip flops
Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey after a long day
Strength Training on my Lululemon Mirror to boost my mood
Watering my plants at home and listening to Jose Gonzales
Give me all the self help & serial killer crime books to devour

My vision is to reveal the depths of your soul, capturing the raw and authentic essence that makes you uniquely you—perfect for creating standout online dating profiles.
I harness the transformative power of natural light photography, using its subtle nuances to create a mood that resonates with your personal story.

During our session, I may guide you through poses and movements to evoke the desired emotions, but spontaneity and fluidity are key, allowing for organic interactions that result in raw, unfiltered moments. This approach not only creates beautiful imagery but also helps you feel confident and at ease, making it perfect for dating profile photography.
In post-processing, I meticulously enhance each image, amplifying the atmosphere with subtle tonal shifts, rich contrasts, and artistic editing techniques. The goal is to create a visual language that resonates deeply, evoking strong emotional responses and making your profile photos unforgettable.
Through these sophisticated, moody portraits, I aim to transcend ordinary photography. My vision is to encapsulate the essence of your soul, crafting timeless art that stirs emotions, ignites introspection, and reveals your profound beauty—ultimately helping you connect with the right people on dating platforms.
