I can’t believe it — I’ve officially stepped into my 30s! 🎉 It feels both surreal and exciting, as though I’ve been preparing for this moment forever. To celebrate this special milestone, I had an incredible birthday photoshoot with my two twins. We went all out for the occasion, booking a professional photographer, a makeup artist, a hairdresser, and a studio for an hour of pure fun and creativity. The energy was electric, and sharing that experience with my twins, the people I’ve been closest to my entire life, made it all the more memorable.
From the moment we entered the studio, I knew this was more than just a photoshoot — it was a celebration of our unique bond and the beautiful journey we’ve been on together. Each of us brought our own style, personality, and flair, but there was a special synchronicity in how we moved, posed, and laughed together. It felt like we were capturing not just photos, but memories we’ll cherish forever.
We were fortunate enough to work with Yasya Lishansky, an incredibly talented photographer who captured us in the most unique and authentic way. Yasya has an amazing ability to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and that allowed us to truly express ourselves. Every shot felt effortless, yet intimate, and Yasya managed to perfectly capture the bond we share as sisters. She didn’t just take pictures; she immortalized the connection, joy, and love we feel for one another.
Having two twins means our trio has always been inseparable, yet so distinctly individual. Though we’ve taken different paths, our connection remains unshakable. This birthday felt like a reflection of how far we’ve come, not just individually but as a unit. We’ve weathered life’s highs and lows together, and this photoshoot symbolized the fun and joy we continue to find in one another’s company.
As I look back on the past 30 years, I see a life filled with moments of self-discovery, love, and growth. And while life has taken unexpected turns, I’ve learned to embrace every twist and detour. This birthday is a reminder to trust the process and love myself, flaws and all. Stepping into this new decade, I’m ready to explore what comes next with an open heart and an adventurous spirit.
Turning 30 feels like a fresh start, not only for me but for all three of us. Together, we’re embracing the unknown and welcoming new adventures. I wish for each of us to continue supporting one another, to laugh through life’s challenges, and to never stop celebrating the moments that make us who we are. The future holds endless possibilities, and I know we’ll face them as we always have — side by side.
