Class of 2026 Senior Pictures - Violet – Platteville, Wi

Violet’s senior session was one of those experiences that I know I’ll be talking about for a long time. She’s compassionate, sweet, and funny — the kind of person who makes everyone around her feel lighter. And let me tell you, her laugh is absolutely contagious.

We started her portraits in the most stunning lavender fields, and it was pure magic. The sunset was glowing, the purple flowers were in full bloom, and Violet’s jaw-dropping gown blended right in with the scenery. She looked like she had stepped out of a fairytale. For her second look, she turned up the confidence — pairing a dramatic hat and chic sunglasses for a whole different vibe. It was edgy, elegant, and 100% Violet.

For her full session, we switched things up and headed to Dubuque’s Historic Millwork District. This backdrop gave us everything — from showcasing her big accomplishments with some seriously impressive hardware, to a polished business-casual look that screamed “girl boss,” to pops of color with one of her favorite downtown murals. The variety perfectly captured her personality and her style.

We ended the evening at the Mississippi River just in time for golden hour. The glow, the water, and Violet’s beautiful energy were the perfect way to wrap up an unforgettable day.

Violet, thank you for trusting me with these memories. You are such a joy to be around, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you accomplish next.
