Kansas City Wedding At the Historic Firestone

Kansas City Wedding Photographers | M+S

Laughter echoed down the hallways of the firestone building. Immediately I knew this was going to be a wonderful Kansas City wedding. Marco smiled at me as I walked faster down the hall. I was so excited to photograph this wedding, my smile got bigger and bigger as I approached the door. As I opened the door a slumber party emerged: Mimosas, matching robes, girls putting on each others make up, dresses lined up full of sequins, and a pillow fight. It was like John Hughes had scripted the perfect wedding.

The dashing groom waited patiently down the hall, in his military blues, for his stunning bride. Steven beamed when he saw Megan and he couldn’t wait to kiss her.

They are the best of friends. She is completely enamored with her solider and he is her loving protector. They held each other for a while and in those few moments time stopped. It was quiet, the sun shining on their faces as his dress blues reflected onto the wall. No matter the distance between them, their love has no limits.

You two have a very special relationship, it is beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for allowing us to capture your love and tell your story. It is quite the celebration of love!

Urban Studio Engagement Session

Taking me by surprise, Marco dipped Asona in our studio for a “fun shot”, I was thrown off because my Marco (Marco Polo) and I had taught ballroom dancing many years ago and only the pros dip like Asona and her loving man Marco. Yep 2 Marco’s here! Another wonderful thing Asona and I have in common. Our love for flurly (yes a made up word for dress that spin) dresses, our love for dance, and to top it off the love of a man named Marco. Yes we were on the right track. The hour seemed to fly by and the images were sweet, heartfelt, and fun!

To get to know this lovely couple here is a snip it from them:

How We Met

We met in college, at WashU, near the beginning of Marco’s senior year and Asona’s junior year. On that special day that we’re both so thankful for, Asona and her friends went to a party at the Loop Lofts thrown by Marco’s friends and next door neighbors.

As it turned out, we had known a lot of the same people throughout most of our time at WashU, had somehow never gotten to know each other. Asona really didn’t feel like going out that night, but boy is Marco happy that she did.
He saw his beautiful future co-exister from the across room, sitting on the couch with an open seat next to her, and went over to introduce himself.

The conversation flowed easily right from the start as they started finding out more about each other, and laughing and enjoying each other’s company. The party got broken up by the police pretty early on, but they both remember being almost unaware of everything else going on around them, just sitting on that couch, focused on each other, before and after everyone else left.

By the end of the night they had discussed religion and politics, views on family and money – all of the things that you’re not supposed to talk about on a first date – with plenty of laughs, and smiles and heart-flutters mixed in.
Marco cooked dinner for her a few days later, they ran into each other several times in the next few days – some by chance, some not – and didn’t spend another day apart until Thanksgiving.

The rest is history. ~Asona & Marco
