Coal Ridge Class of 2017 | Madison

The Coal Ridge Class of 2017 is about to set free another incredible student!  Allow me to introduce to you Miss Madison!  Madie will graduate with her class mates on May 21st and this fall she is headed to Colorado Mesa University to obtain her Nursing degree!  Family and friends are so proud her and she's definitely earned all of the good fortune headed her way.  Madie has received a handful of scholarships to help her on her journey to success and among those scholarships awarded are:  CMU Distinguished Scholars (Full tuition), CMU First Generation, and the Glenwood Hot Springs Higher Education Scholarship.

I thoroughly enjoyed having Madie on my Team this year.  The very first time we met I was blown away by her infectious smile!  Seriously, this girl has a smile that you remember and it's so contagious.  Madie has held the position of Senior Class president throughout her final year as a Titan and one of the things she will miss the most is being able to coordinate all of the class and school events.  She will also greatly miss her peers and classmates.  (I'm going to miss you too, girl!)

Congratulations, Madison!

Coal Ridge High School Senior Photographer | Kylie

The end is near!  Well, the end of High School anyway.  Over the next couple of weeks I will be showcasing the 2017 graduates that I had the pleasure of working with over the past year.

Meet Kylie!  Kylie will soon graduate from Coal Ridge High School in Silt/New Castle, Colorado.  I have had the pleasure of getting to know Kylie quite well over the past few years, she even babysits for us on occasion.  She is the sweetest thing and I know that her future holds great things for her!

Kylie will graduate on May 21st and this fall she is headed to The University of Northern Colorado to study criminology and criminal justice.  She has been an active member of the Coal Ridge Cheer Team throughout high school and plans to continue that path through college by participating in the dance club.

Miss Kylie has the most incredible parents a kid could dream of being raised by and they are the one thing she will miss the most when she embarks on this new adventure.

To all upcoming Seniors, Kylie wants to leave you with a little advice:

"High School goes by too fast.  Don't take it for granted.  Enjoy it to the very fullest!"

Congratulations, Kylie!  We are all so excited to see you off on this wonderful journey!

Class of 2017 Street Team | Now is your time to shine!

Let's get this party started!

I am jumping the gun a bit earlier this year because I'm just too excited to get to work with my next group of high school seniors!  I am also adding quite a few new and exciting features to the CJP Street Team program which I will need the extra time for.  This next season is going to be even more EPIC than years past!

So, the time has come!  I am looking for high school JUNIORS who want to be a part of something exciting and different!  I am looking for YOU!  I NEED YOU on my STREET TEAM!

What does it take to be a Street Team member?  It requires YOU being YOU and sharing your experience with your friends.  Am I asking you to be a salesman for me?  Heck NO!  There are a few easy things you need to do from time to time, but they all come with benefits and rewards and the best part....dun, dun, dun....you can do it all from your phone!  So worth it!

Your Senior year should be an experience.  Being a part of the #cjpstreetteam is an experience that you won't forget!

So let's be awesomesauce, together!

Megan | Palisade Senior Photographer | Class of 2016

Your Palisade High School Senior Photographer presents... Megan, Class of 2016!  I had the pleasure of spending two afternoons with this young lady after the weather put a damper on our first session.  The storm gave us a unique opportunity to put together two stylized shoots showcasing Megan's soft and bold personalities.  She did a phenomenal job for the camera and she even styled her own hair and makeup!  I'm excited to see where Megan's journeys take her after high school!

Congrats Megan!

Oh my goodness!  Check out this beautiful high school senior from Palisade!!  Everyone, meet Hannah!  We drove about 2 hours out to the Uncompahgre to take these stunning images and it was so much fun!  Hannah is my kind of country girl sporting her cowboy boots, sun dresses and best of all her horse!  What a ham he was too, always sticking his tongue out at the camera.  Goof!  Check out Hannah's senior photos and leave her some love!

Congrats Hannah and best of luck with your final year of high school!
