Dawson, a Class of 2026 senior at Fennimore High School, is the kind of guy who leaves a lasting impression without saying a word. He’s the quarterback of the football team, but what stands out most about him is his quiet confidence, laid-back personality, and kind heart.
For his senior session, we headed to the Historic Millwork District in Dubuque, and it couldn’t have been a better backdrop. The mix of old brick, sleek metal details, and industrial architecture perfectly matched Dawson’s style and vibe. Each of his outfits stood out in its own way against the urban setting. And of course, we couldn’t leave out a few football shots — tossing the ball in such a unique space brought a personal touch to his portraits.
We ended the evening at the Mississippi River at sunset, and the light was pure magic. The soft glow across the water created the perfect backdrop, wrapping up the session in the most unforgettable way.
Dawson also embraced the Green Screen Experience for his dynamic football portraits. While he’s laid-back off the field, once the jersey was on, his competitive edge and leadership as QB really came through. These portraits show both sides of who he is — the calm and steady young man and the determined athlete.
Dawson, thank you (and your family!) for trusting me with these memories. With your heart, determination, and drive, I know your future will be full of incredible things.
