“Shannon took the most creative and beautiful photos! My daughter had her senior photos done with Shannon. We met prior to the photo session for advice and help on where and what to wear. Shannon took the most creative and beautiful photos! Would recommend Shannon! She did a great job and worth every penny!"
— Rich, Senior dad | Champlin
“We had a wonderful experience with Shannon for our daughter's senior photos. Shannon gets to know her clients before the actual photo session to learn more about them and their likes and styles. Great communication and turnaround time. Thanks Shannon!"
— Amber, Senior Mom | Maplewood
"Shannon is super easy to work with, was really helpful for locations and when the weather changed she was super flexible. The photos are absolutely amazing!!"
— oie, senior mom | Stillwater

I lover her natural, organic, artist style. She always "wows" me! Additionally, her sessions are always so much fun... Shannon makes us laugh a lot and it just naturally brings out our personalities into every photo. I highly recommend her!"
— Cheryl, Senior mom | Andover
"Shannon photographed my daughter for her senior photos, and they turned out better than I ever imagined. She connected with her prior to the session to learn more about her and what she wanted out of the experience. Within an hour, she captured her beautiful essence on print. I recommend Shannon Kathleen Photography for senior photos! She does an amazing job."
— Susan | White Bear Lake
"Shannon is so wonderful! Have used her to capture my children when they were young, all the way to annual family pictures and holiday cards! She always does an amazing job of getting the most beautiful pictures! She is always on time, professional, and gets you proofs very quickly, which I know some photographers can lag on! She has the sweetest smile too that makes my kids relaxed and open up to getting their pictures taken, which is huge for me!"
— Rosalee | Woodbury
"We have used Shannon's services for several years now because she is both amazingly talented and also a really good person. Her warmth and love of others shows through in her appointments and in her pictures. I feel fortunate to have found her."
— Briar | Farmington
“Shannon, you are seriously the whole package. You're an incredible and truly inspired photographer but more than that, you put our whole family at ease and gave us a wonderful experience at our session. My husband doesn't love having his photo taken, but he agreed it was fun :) Not just okay, but FUN! The kids were instantly comfortable around you and competing to show off their personalities for the camera. We totally love you! :) Thanks, Shannon!"
— Esther, newborn mom | Plymouth
"I absolutely adore Shannon, not only as a person but also an artist. I have hired her 3 times over the span of 7 years and I plan to do so again in the future. She is the only photographer I use and I highly recommend her to everyone. She is professional, timely, personable, and her aesthetic is unrivaled in my opinion. Shannon is a true artist."
— Jessica, senior mom | Roseville
"The photos from my daughter's senior session took my break away. My daughter had a unique vision, and not only did Shannon honor her vision, she brought it to life in the most beautiful way. From listening intently to her ideas, risking her camera gear to stand in the St. Croix river to get the perfect shots, to supplying a popup tent to accommodate three wardrobe changes, Shannon made the whole process exciting and fun.
The photos are incredible - the stars undoubtedly aligned for their collaboration. What resulted was nothing short of magic. Thank you Shannon for honoring my daughter's vision, and not just taking her photos, but for capturing her soul!"
Each booking includes wardrobe guidance tailored to your session type — whether you're prepping for senior photos, maternity portraits, or a cozy newborn shoot. I’ll help you select outfits that feel authentic, photograph beautifully, and complement your setting.
What should we wear for our session?
Sessions are held throughout the Twin Cities — from scenic parks to cozy in-home settings. I’ll help you choose a location that reflects your personality and style, whether it’s a golden-hour field, downtown alley, or your own nursery.
Where do sessions take place?
I recommend booking your portrait session 4–8 weeks in advance, especially during peak seasons in Minneapolis and St. Paul. This allows time for planning, wardrobe guidance, and securing your ideal time and location.
How far in advance should I book my session?
Frequently asked questions
Absolutely. Maternity and newborn sessions often include spouses, siblings, and even pets. These moments are about connection — and I encourage you to bring the people (or pups) that make this season meaningful.
Can siblings or partners be included in maternity or newborn photos?
Each collection varies by session length, location options, outfit changes, and included digital images. You can choose from a short & simple session to a full storytelling experience — and we’ll make sure the right one fits your needs.
What’s the difference between each package?
Yes — I offer senior portrait sessions for all students across Minneapolis–St. Paul. Whether you want something bold and editorial or relaxed and casual, we’ll create images that feel personal and confident.
Do you photograph senior guys and girls?
Yes! High-quality albums, prints, and wall art are available as add-ons or included with select packages. I’ll help guide you toward timeless ways to preserve and display your images.

You’ll receive your hand-edited digital gallery within 10–14 days. Select packages offer expedited editing, slideshow delivery, and keepsake albums or USBs.
When will I receive my images?
Have a story to tell? Whether you're marking a milestone or simply capturing this chapter of life, I’d be honored to help you preserve it with honesty and heart. It all begins with a simple note.
