If you've never had your friend group documented, this may be your sign to consider making it happen!
As this group of wonderful people move through this season of their lives with grad school, they decided to document their friendship while they played around at the creek and on campus. It was special for me to witness and document such a sweet time of life.

Katie and Mike’s wedding day full of sunshine and color! These two made personalized key chains with each guest’s name on them at their seat before dinner, their flower girls tossed colorful ribbons, they danced to Allison Kraus and Still Woozy and they had the most loving guests. It was such a beautiful day. I’m grateful to have worked with an awesome photographer, Mikaela Antonelli to capture the day digitally and on film!
Roadtrip to Durango
Day 1 - Camping at Black Canyon of the Gunnison
I arrived at the campground around 2pm, so there was time for a bike ride around the campground with my Dad. He chopped some firewood, we saw a deer at our site and we took some photos in front of my parents’ new obsession, their Vistabule trailer!
The Black Canyon at Sunset
It was a Wednesday, and we must have only seen 10 other people in total while we wandered around all the viewpoints here. The clouds cast even more intense shadows into the canyon and made it that much more interesting. We sat and enjoyed the sunset for awhile. We met a sweet dog that reminded us of Gretta and had a nice evening relaxing.
Day 2 - The Drive to Durango
My Dad insisted that the trailer needed to be washed before we set out on our 4 hour drive for the day haha so our first stop was at the $2 car wash. We passed through Telluride, got ice cream in a town outside of Durango, then arrived at our campsite. It had been pouring rain most of the evening, but we got a pocket of sunshine poking through before the rain picked up again for the night.
Day 3 - The Historic Train Route: Durango to Silverton
This train ride was incredible and rich with history and fun facts about everything we could imagine. The man in the first photo is Gary. Our guide for the day, Toby, told us that Gary waits for the train every single day rain or shine. We saw him on the way there and back with an umbrella as the ran poured down. We saw the creek from above, then we descended to be level with it again. We saw cabins and tents still used by hunters in the fall, some broken bridges and abandoned rail cars. There is a cliff/rock formation shaped like Africa, a broken bridge that the workers call Government Bridge, a zip line area only accessible via train or bus that costs about $600 per person. We were lucky enough to see someone zip lining as we passed by and they did some tricks for us all.
Inside the town of Silverton, we ate at The Pitts, Again and got the best pulled pork “sundae”. Pulled pork, beans and cole slaw in a sundae cup! The ride back was rainy, but still beautiful.
Baker’s Bridge
After the train ride, it was still raining, so we wanted to spend time not at our campsite. I had wanted to see this bridge for a few years after hearing about it from friends and online. It’s a famous spot for locals to jump into the water from the bridge or the rocks. As we pulled up, a huge group of people walked up in their swimsuits! I hoped they were planning to jump in despite the rain. It was very fun to watch. Back at our site, we caught a sunset rainbow against the red rocks and the glow of my tent.
Our Last Day + the Drive Home
We had breakfast at a cute place about a mile away from our campsite. The rain finally stopped and it was nice to sit outside and enjoy the sun again. We heard the train going by as we ate! On my way home, I drove over Wolf Creek Pass, saw some waterfalls, the creek and a cool, but quite empty cemetery in South Fork, CO.
