When I first moved to Kansas City, my amazing wedding photographer (Melissa Jill)  connected me with a fellow photographer in the area - Allison of Allison Marie Photography. From the moment Sunil and I met her and her husband, we knew we had made amazing friends. Allison and her husband, Grant, are incredibly passionate, generous, and brilliant people, and we have loved getting to know them over the past year. When they announced last year that they were expecting TWINS, I'm pretty sure I literally squealed! You can read more about it on Allison's blog, but her journey has been a difficult and amazing experience. Last week I got to hang out with Allison and finally meet their two beautiful children: Abram and Madeline. I just "happened" to bring along my camera, and was able to get a few adorable photos of Allison hanging out with her sweet babies. Enjoy!! :)

Ease. That's the word I'd use.  

They laugh with ease...

Parent with ease... (Seriously... it's like they've been doing it forever!)

and love with ease.

It's almost like being adorable is completely natural to them. :)

And despite the blustery, chilly day...

They took it all in stride - loving every second of it.

Taking time to squeeze tight...

Cuddle close...

And enjoy sweet moments alone...

Despite the epic wind. (Is she not STUNNING in this shot??)

We had been trying to schedule a photo shoot for over a year now, but it had never worked out until now.

When I finally got to meet them face to face last week, I instantly fell in love with their sweet daughter...

And her adorable double chin!! (Wear it proudly, pumpkin!)

Both Tyler and McKenzie really wanted me to capture their family as it is... without fuss or pretending.

I am so blessed to have clients like these. :)

Not only does he have super cool hair... he's also an amazing dad! I loved seeing the way he interacts with his daughter. :)

This moment was beautiful. Youthfulness and love wrapped up together... how sweet are they??

And just LOOK at those cheeks!

I'm so blessed to work with such beautiful people...

Both inside and out. Have a beautiful Wednesday! :)
