Being a professional photographer, I noticed, observed different kind of love. soon, when I reached in my 28 years of lifetime, I wonder I have ever experienced such a pure love.while capturing their photos I feel so amazed. I said Ellie to change the position and background then  and recommend them to go near to a lake then suddenly Ellie felt scared to walk close to the water, Joey console and support her that everything is fine there and offered his hand to guide her and make her relax for the shoot. When Joey was not feeling joyful happy, Ellie was annoying tickling joey to bring his mood back. While observing their interactions, I found myself thinking, ‘Wow.’ They have everything sorted out already.

They represent all aspect of childhood they were doing childish stuff together making happy eachother that I could ever wish to become as an adult. After sometime, they inspired me to improve myself, to make my this passion professionally and to focus on the positive, and to love a bit more selflessly. “If only we all viewed the world as innocently as Ellie and Joey, how wonderful it would be

Joey and Ellie were both born with Down syndrome. Neither family was informed of the diagnosis beforehand. Prior to their birth, the two families had not been well acquainted. When Ellie arrived 6 months after Joey, our mutual friends emphasized how crucial it was for us to get in touch. Since our initial meeting up to now, Joey and Ellie share a connection, along with their families. We understand each other’s challenges and victories.

We view one another as family.

For Joey and Ellie, their love is boundless. They clearly and honestly reveal to their families, each other, and everyone else that love is what matters most. Their challenges are honest and true, and we understand the continual need to promote awareness in our society about kindness and respect for those who are different . Joey has three elder sisters, while Ellie has two elder sisters.

Their sisters are currently teaching their friends and classmates about Down syndrome and how Joey and Ellie are just like everyone else. In return, Joey and Ellie have educated their siblings about compassions, kindness, and holding and accepting all types people those who are living with disabilities. A concept that is not always simple to impart to kids.

I don’t remember that when it occurred, but Joey began calling to Ellie as his girlfriend. He will inform us every week that he plans to marry Ellie, because joey love for Ellie was pure true.  We believe this might turn out well for everyone involved!

When they faced each other from school, they quickly grasp hands, start liking each other, and simply gaze into each other’s eyes,having true feeling for each other. It feels like they are aware of something that we are not.

Joey is high protective and deeply caring when it comes to Ellie. He support, provide assistances her in sitting down at our kitchen table,  making sure that she has a snack during her visits, and always confirms that I welcome her with a hug! Love is a wonderful and so pure experience that you face in life, and seeing them loving and caring for each other and recognize each other’s best qualities comes naturally to them. They are people with special disabilities as we might express it. They feel no ashamed in expressing their emotions for one another. When Joey seeks information why he can’t wed his sisters, I respond, ‘Because you should marry your best friend.’ He always replies, ‘Oh, I will marry Ellie then!’ “She is his most pure friend and first priority girl.”
