Elise, Chad, Gavin, and Arwen were also heaven sent into my life. I KNOW I would not have survived my time in Connecticut without them. Whenever, I reflect on their love, kindness, and generosity that they showed me during a hard time of my life, I think how can I ever repay them for all they gave to me?
I loved the opportunity the family gave me to take their family pictures. I met them at the Arboretum at Connecticut College. This is a special place for the family. Chad works at the College and the family has spent a lot of time in the beautiful arboretum. The photo shoot was so fantastic. Arwen and Gavin (the children) naturally went into poses and were so willing to do anything I asked of them to help create connected/loving pictures. They were rock stars!!  Chad and Elise, as evidenced in their pictures, are a couple filled with beauty and humility. As a whole family, they are filled with strength and love!!
Elise, Chad, Gavin, and Arwen please know you will always hold a special place in my heart. I am forever grateful for you for so many reasons. I love you all!!
