Bellevue Botanical Garden Engagement was such a joy to share for us. The moment of Kevin & Maney was full of laughter and light, and set amid the lush greenery of this stunning space. We love working at this venue because the garden flows naturally and offers gorgeous backdrops for engagement photography. With 53 acres of gardens, restored woodlands, and wetlands, it gives so much variety for images that feel alive and real.
Kevin grew up in Tacoma, Washington and Maney comes from Portland, Oregon. The two met at a friend’s house party on March 26, 2000 the same day the old Seattle King Dome was demolished. They said hi, thought each other was cute and went on their merry way. A month later they bumped into each other again at another gathering. They finally connected, spent the weekend together, and the rest is history. Their official anniversary is May 26, 2000 and after 24 years together they’ve chosen to get married timing it to celebrate 25 years together on May 25, 2025. They are active, happy-go-lucky, easy-going and full of joy. They love camping, hiking, fishing, road trips, or simply being at home together. They share core values around family, friends and respect for each other’s individual growth.
At our studio, Original Weddings, we bring that same joyful energy into our work. As a professional engagement photographer team in Seattle we travel far and wide from the Puget Sound region to the Cascades and beyond.
