Ellie & Petey | Class of 2025 | Hammonasset Beach Senior Session

I recently had the pleasure of photographing twins Ellie and Petey, Class of 2025, at Hammonasset Beach. It was a perfect day, and we had so much fun exploring the area and capturing this special milestone in their lives. As with all my sessions, I took the time to chat and get to know them a little better, and right away, I could see the unique bond these two share. There’s something so special about that twin connection, and Ellie and Petey truly are not just siblings but also great friends.

Both of them have such a quiet and kind presence, making it easy to see the similarities in their personalities. They share many of the same interests—both are part of the Key Club and Italian Club, and they both dream of visiting Italy someday. They’re also excited to take part in their school’s Powder Puff game this year, something they’ve been looking forward to.

Ellie, a dedicated gymnast, also teaches gymnastics, showing her love for helping others learn. She’s planning to pursue a degree in nursing, with Quinnipiac and UConn topping her list of potential schools. I have no doubt she’ll thrive wherever she chooses to go—her determination and caring nature will take her far!

Petey, on the other hand, is leaning toward engineering and is in the process of narrowing down his college options. A die-hard Miami Dolphins fan (a passion he shares with his dad), Petey has a focused and thoughtful approach to his future, and I’m excited to see where his path takes him.

Thank you so much, Ellie and Petey, for letting me capture this important moment for you. Wishing you both an amazing senior year and all the best as you prepare for your next big adventure!
