Entrepreneurs and Giving Back

We were asked to be the official photographers for the first year of the of the very first Arizona chapter of the Young Entrepreneurs Academy, sponsored by NAWBO! While we’ve only been able to attend a handful of events this year, we’ve captured some great photographs of the students, that now have become their own CEO’s and have since created their own companies. It’s really exciting and inspiring to see these young adults grab their futures by the reigns and go forth into entrepreneurship! Just imagine where they’ll be in 10 years!

Kristi Church Media has had the honor of working alongside an amazing friend and mentor, Lynda Bishop and her team of instructors for what has been a incredible experience not only for the parents and the Young Entrepreneur Academy students, but for us as well. If you ever need to be charged up about what you’re doing and where you’re going with your business, stop in on one of their class nights and you’ll walk away with just the shot in the arm that you need to take your business to the next level.

Each student has dedicated an afternoon/evening a week after school for the entire school year to be a part of this new chapter in Phoenix. Talk about commitment! On a recent class night, we were on site and captured professional head shots of the young entrepreneurs. Last night the newly designated CEO’s had the opportunity to pitch their company idea, balance sheets and creative to a panel of investors “Shark Tank” style. It was eye opening to see the work that each of them put into their presentations and they ALL did so great! We’ll have a separate blog with photos in the next week. In the meantime, take a look at how their year has been so far. Fun!

Stay tuned for more soon!
